In osteoartritis there are degeneration process and joint inflammation. Curcuminoid is a secondary metabolite found in Curcuma domestica that can be used to treat rheumatic disease. The aim of this study is to know the effect of curcuminoid from Curcuma domestica Val. extract to the level of malondialdehyde (MDA) in the synovial fiuid of osteoarthritic joint, Diclofenac sodium was used as comp…
Characteristic of mucosal immunity is the production of secretory IgA (SIgA) by local plasma cells at the mucosal tissues and secretory glands. The IgA secretion into luminal side is a complex process, involving various steps of molecular and cellular interactions among the immunocompetent cells. These comprise (1) initiation of mucosal responses in the gut lymphoid tissues (gut-associated lymp…

Food allergy is an immediate type of hypersensitivity reactions against food allergens. The sensitization by those allergic substances will induce the IgE antibody production by B lymphocytes in the systemic circulation and the gut mucosa. Increased mecosal permeability facilitates this process of sensitization. Conversely, there is a protective effect of SIgA antibodies against the uptake of m…
The presence of immunocompetent of bronchial asthma in hypersitive individuals. The cells comprise various populations, such as mat cells, basophils, neutrophils, macrophages, dentritic cells and lymphocytes, in which the T--cells are believed to play a centralrole. It has been demonstrated than CD4 T-cells consist of CD45RO reactive population and CD45RA, each secreting different cytokines. In…
