OBJECTIVE: . MATERIALS: . After 48 h, the toxic effects of dexamethasone on innate immune factors were assessed. RESULTS: Based on the results, the sensitivity of cultured spleen and head kidney cells to dexamethasone increased in a concentration-dependent manner. Dexamethasone significantly decreased the number of IgM-secreting cells and IgM secretion. It also significantly reduced the C3 content of the cultivated cells but did not significantly alter the C4 and ACH50 contents or lysozyme activity of the cultivated cells. Furthermore, dexamethasone significantly suppressed respiratory burst activity and nitric oxide production in the spleen and head kidney cells. CONCLUSIONS: In conclusion, the immunosuppressive effect of dexamethasone was due mainly to its suppressive effects on IgM-secreting cells and IgM production, C3 content, burst activity and nitric oxide production in the spleen and head kidney cells. - Seventy-kilodalton protein density in Porites spp.: Possible useful proxy for cold stress in coral reefs
