Abstract excerpt
2,3,7,8-Tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) is an environmental contaminant that is considered to be a potent immunotoxicant. In the present study, we examined the effect of 25 micrograms/kg TCDD on cytokine production and T lymphocyte phenotype, cell cycling and receptor activity in female Long-Evans rats that had been injected with 50 micrograms of Staphylococcal Enterotoxin B (SEB). In the SEB-injected rats,...
