A wide diversity of herbal remedies have purported abilities to stimulate defense functions. Complexes of carbohydrate and lignin, which are present in some herbs, modulate enteric immune functions (Kiyohara et al, 2000), and the changes in cytokine secretion (Matsumoto and Yamada, 2000) can trigger systemic responses. The polysaccharides present in other herbal medicines augment production of immunoglobulin (Ig) A by the Peyer s patches in the small intestine (Sakushima et al, 1997 Yu et al, 1998). The responses of the enteric immune system to lectins are variable (Pusztai 1993), and can elicit systemic responses (Lavelle et al, 2000). Other phytochemicals provide protection by inducing detoxification pathways in mucosal cells (Williamson et al, 1998).

South America and Western Europe). But the large reserves of near-surface subbituminous coals and lignites are also being looked upon as future sources of synthetic fuel gases and liquid hydrocarbons that would augment production of synthetic crude oils from, e.g., Northern Alberta s oil sands (4).

Therefore the real product needs to be defined much more precisely to meet customers requirements than does the generic product (Figure 13.3). In addition the producer needs to consider the augmented product , in which additional features have been added. In developing such augmented products the manufacturer is moving towards... 

Romozint troglitazone. romurtide [inn.jan] (DJ 7041) is a derivative of the adjutant muramyl dipeptide, and is an (immunostimulant) IMMUNOMODULATOR which augments production of granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF), It has activity as an ANTICANCER and ANTIVIRAL AGENT. 

An effective variant of the gas injection EOR procedure is the proposal to inject molasses or some other low-cost fermentable material plus a species of bacterium, such as Clostridium acetobutylicum into the formation [21]. Eer-mentation products, such as acetone, butanol, and lower molecular weight acids are produced. These and the carbon dioxide also produced can augment production by 200-250%.

While IFN-y promotes lL-12 release, its effects on other cytokines and chemokines produced by neutrophils are complex. IFN-y inhibits early induction of chemokines such MlP-la, MIP-ip, and lL-8 [50-52]. For the case of MlP-la, this has been shown to occur through transcriptional inhibition [51]. Nevertheless, during extended cultures, IFN-y augments production of these same chemokines [52, 53]. Production of TNF-a and IL-1(3 at all time points is enhanced by IFN-y, and this may underlie the enhancing effects of IFN-y when cytokine production is analyzed during longer-term culture periods [53].

Evidence that hypoxia or ischaemia/reperfusion elicits oxidant-mediated tissue injury suggests that the adaptational response to brief periods of hypoxia or ischaemia could involve augmented production of antioxidant enzymes in affected tissues. 

Dawson and Irvine (1978) noted that in many of those tissues in which physiological stimuli caused activation of phosphatidyl-inositol turnover, the same stimuli caused an increase in prostaglandin release. Such activation of phosphatidyl-inositol turnover and augmented production of...
