Therapy for inflammatory joint diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis and psoriatic arthritis, includes various conventional disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs). These therapeutic agents are termed DMARDs because th

Coccidioides immitis is a fungus endemic to the southwestern United States. Susceptible hosts, including blacks, Hispanics, Filipinos, Native Americans, and those with compromised immunity, may develop disseminated disease, including fungemia. We ret

The incidence of coccidioidomycosis in the southwestern United States has sharply increased over the last decade as a result of environmental and demographic changes. It is important to review the epidemiology, diagnostic indicators, and therapeutic

The advent of crack cocaine has changed the face of acute cocaine intoxication. Repeated doses of highly concentrated, rapidly delivered drug can give rise to an array of potentially fatal cardiovascular, neurologic, and respiratory complications.

The present study describes the inhibition of macrophage-mediated cytotoxicity (MMC) by cocaine and suggests a possible mechanism. Mice (C57BL/6) were injected i.p. with cocaine. At various intervals after exposure to cocaine, peritoneal macrophages

Myeloperoxidase is an enzyme which is found in the azurophilic granules of neutrophils and is associated with bactericidal, fungicidal, and tumoricidal activity. The present studies show that human recombinant myeloperoxidase (rec-MyPo) can regulate

We determined cellular and humoral immune responses toBorrelia burgdorferilysate and to recombinant flagellin (FlaB), OspC, and OspA in acute- and convalescent-phase samples from 39 culture-positive patients with erythema migrans and in 20 healthy co

Studies elucidating the effects of cocaine on immune cells and immune function are relatively recent. Although immunomodulation by cocaine has been reported by a number of investigators, it is not consistently associated with immunosuppression. A rev

Cocaine, a naturally occurring alkaloid, is known to affect the immune system. The present authors have demonstrated that peritoneal macrophages, isolated from mice injected with cocaine, have an increased capacity for the production of reactive oxyg
