A predictive F344 rat immunotoxicology model: cellular parameters combined with humoral response to NP-CγG and KLH

The purpose of this study was to examine the predictive value of humoral and cellular immune parameters in determining the immunotoxic effects of the oral administration of azathioprine (AZA), cyclophosphamide (CY), or cyclosporin A (CsA) at doses of 25/17, 10, or 25 mg/kg per day, respectively, for 30 days in F344 female rats. The effect of these known immunosuppressive compounds on the immune response was assessed in a humoral model that...
