Abstract
Moon phases influence the molting process of shrimp, which affect other physiological processes as immune response. This study analyzed some parameters of immune response: total hemocytes counts (THC), hemolymph clotting time and superoxide anion (O2-) production, total protein concentration, superoxide dismutase activity, and the presence of Vibrio spp. in Litopenaeus vannamei at different moon phases. The highest percentage of organisms in intermolt stage was observed in the first quarter moon phase (95%). The highest THC was observed at new moon phase, which was significantly different (p < 0.05) than that observed at the third quarter phase. Hemolymph clotting time and CFU values of Vibrio spp. showed no significant difference (p > 0.05) between different moon phases. The higher (p < 0.05) mean O2- production value (0.400 ± 0.168 nmol min-1 mL-1) was determined in hepatopancreas at new moon phase. No relationship was observed between O2- and SOD activity, indicating that this antioxidant response was enough to counteract the influence of oxidative stress in L. vannamei at different moon phases.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To determine the lymphoproliferative response to the 30-kDa protein (p30) of Salmonella typhimurium in patients with ankylosing spondylitis (AS). METHOD Lymphoproliferative response was determined in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from 30 patients with AS and 40 healthy subjects. Cells were cultured with concanavalin A (Con A), a crude lysate of S. typhimurium (StCL), or p30. Lymphoproliferation was measured by the MTT assay. RESULTS Our data show that the mitogenic response to Con A was similar in both groups studied; however, the lymphoproliferative response to StCL and p30 was statistically higher in AS patients than in healthy subjects. CONCLUSIONS Our data strongly suggest that S. typhimurium, and particularly p30, are associated with AS.
