Приказ свих података о документуАпстракт:
Chokeberry (Aronia melanocarpa) fruit extracts (CE) are rich in polyphenols and usually
exhibit cardioprotective, anti-viral and anti-bacterial properties1. Our aim was to
investigate the effects of CE on the immune response in vivo and in vitro, which have been
only sporadically assessed. CE, administered orally to healthy mice, exerted
immunomodulatory effects in the gut, evidenced by the altered proportion of macrophages
(Mφ), dendritic cells (DC) and T cells. CE-pretreated BALB/c mice readily eradicated
orally ingested Listeria monocytogenes due to higher proportions of Mφ and CD8 T cells
both in the gut and spleen. Additionally, phagocytosis, ROS production and the
proportions of activated Mφ and DC, as well as perforin+ cells were enhanced in CEpretreated
infected mice. Also, CE pretreatment of C57BL/6 mice inoculated with B16
cells delayed melanoma appearance and increased infiltration of immune cells in the tumor
microenvironment (TME). The TME of CE-treated mice contained more IFN-γ+ cells and
a less of tumor-promoting CCR5+ MDSC. In vitro, CE displayed no direct cytotoxicity to
B16 cells. Splenocytes isolated from CE-treated animals exerted strong cytotoxic effect on
B16 cells and this effect was diminished by neutralization of IFN-γ. In conclusion, the CE
exhibits strong immunomodulatory properties and should be consumed with care.
