Immunization of CBA mice with extracts from the ovaries of outbred albino mouse led to disorders in meiotic maturation of oocytes, enhanced death of immunocompetent cells in the thymus, spleen, and lymph nodes mainly by necrosis, and promoted the development of inflammatory reaction, as was shown by complete blood count. Treatment with activation inhibitor NF-κB curcumin against the background of immunization significantly reduced disorders in meiotic maturation of oocytes, decreased the number of cells dying by necrosis in immunocompetent organs, and attenuated the inflammatory reaction.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
