Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNeosporosis in Sheep and Different Breeds of Goats from Southern Jordan: Prevalence and Risk Factors AnalysisAl-Majali A. N., Jawasreh K. I., Talafha H. A., Talafha A. Q.A cross sectional study was performed to investigate the epidemiology of Neospora caninum infection in Southern Jordan. A total of 320 sheep and 300 goats from 38 and 24, sheep and goat flocks, respectively, were randomly sampled and assayed for presence of antibodies against N. caninum. A structured pre-tested questionnaire was administered to collect information on flocks' health and management. … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,875 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDetection of Chlamydophila abortus in Sheep (Ovis aries) in MexicoJuan Manuel Jiménez-Estrada, Marcos R. Escobedo-Guerra, Gabriel Arteaga-Troncoso et al.Chlamydophila abortus is one of the pathogens which induce abortion in small ruminants; this pathogen has a tropism for ruminant placenta and causes the disease commonly referred to as Ovine Enzootic Abortion (OEA). In Europe are estimated economic losses of around 20 million pounds a year by OEA. In the American Continent the disease has been reported only in Canada, … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,892 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUrinary Tract Infection-A Survey of Local PopulationShaon Ray Chaudhuri, Ashoke Ranjan Thakur, Poulomi Nandy, Santanu SamantaUrinary Tract Infection, commonly known as UTI, affects as many as 50% women at least once during their lifetime. All individuals are susceptible to Urinary Tract Infection (UTI); however the prevalence of infection differs with age, sex and certain predisposing factors. With the above background in mind we conducted a survey of the local population (women of 3 age groups) … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2008 · 7,785 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractC-Terminal Region of Dengue Virus Nonstructural Protein 1 Is Involved in Endothelial Cell Cross-Reactivity via Molecular MimicryShu-Wen Wan, Chiou-Feng Lin, Mei-Chun Chen et al.Infection with dengue virus (DV) causes diseases ranging from self-limited dengue fever to life-threatening dengue hemorrhagic fever and dengue shock syndrome. Vascular leakage, thrombocytopenia and bleeding are the clinical manifestations associated with dengue hemorrhage. We previously showed that anti-DV nonstructural protein 1 (NS1) antibodies (Abs) cross-reacted with endothelial cells. The potential target proteins on endothelial cell surface recognized by anti-DV … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 7,564 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnti-Platelet and Anti-Endothelial Cell Autoantibodies in Vietnamese Infants and Children with Dengue Hemorrhagic FeverNguyen Thanh Hung, Nguyen Trong Lan, Yee-Shin Lin et al.Dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) is a serious public health problem. Increased vascular permeability and thrombocytopenia are the hallmarks of DHF. The mechanisms involved in DHF/Dengue shock syndrome (DSS) pathogenesis is not fully understood. This study gives evidence of the presence of antibodies which cross-reacted with platelets, and endothelial cells in the sera of Vietnamese infants and children with DHF/DSS. The … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 7,371 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImmunohistochemistry Assay to Detect Turkey Coronavirus (TCoV) from Experimentally Infected PoultsThais Larissa L Castanheira, Heitor F. Ferrari, Maria Cecília R. Luvizotto, Tereza C. CardosoThe objective of this study was to develop a direct immunohistochemical assay to detect TCoV antigens in formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded sections prepared from experimentally infected poults. The sections of ileo, ileo-cecal junction and ceca regions from intestine were prepared and submitted to two different primary antibodies, first the non-biotin labeled polyclonal antibody for the indirect method, and second the biotin-labeled polyclonal … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 31 Dec 2007 · 6,906 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Novel Heat Shock Transcription Factor Family in Entamoeba histolyticaConsuelo G. García, Ma. De la Luz Macias Argüelles, D. Guillermo P Ishiwara et al.The HSTF is a master molecule involved in the transcriptional control of several genes during different types of stress. This transcription factor is a very conserved protein identified in different organisms from bacterial to human. Entamoeba histolytica is the protozoan responsible for the human amoebiasis. This parasite is exposed to different kind of stress as changes in the pH, temperature, … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 7,186 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImmunological Evidence for Peptide-Carbohydrate Mimicry with a Group A Streptococcus Polysaccharide-Mimetic PeptideSilvia Borrelli, Rehana B. Hossany, Susan Findlay, B. Mario PintoThe immunogenicity of a peptide-protein conjugate developed by linking a peptide mimic DRPVPY of the Group A Streptococcus cell-wall polysaccharide (GAS-CWPS), to tetanus toxoid (TT) was examined. BALB/c mice were immunized three times subcutaneously following homologous or heterologous prime/boost strategies at 4- or 6- week intervals in two different experiments. DRPVPY-TT, CWPS-TT, heat-killed, pepsin-treated GAS bacteria (with exposed polysaccharide) and … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2006 · 6,960 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSeroprevalence of Human Immunodeficiency Virus and Syphilis Infections among Patients Attending the STD, Gyn. and Obs., ANC Clinics of Northern India: Observations from Seven Rounds of Sentinel Surveillance (1998-2004)Tahziba Hussain, K. K. Kulshreshtha, V. S. Yadav et al.The data of HIV sentinel surveillance, i.e., National Annual Sentinel Surveillance (NASS) carried out under the aegis of National AIDS Control Organisation (NACO) of seven rounds revealed that the prevalence of HIV infection is less among the attendees of STD, Obs. & Gyn., Antenatal ( ANC) clinics whereas that of Syphilis is high. This study was carried in order to … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2006 · 7,064 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNa,K-ATPase α Subunit-like Immunoreactive Proteins in Human Body FluidsJeng-Hsiung F. PengNa,K-ATPase was recently considered a target for breast cancer treatment since its potent inhibitors ouabain and related digitalis compounds that were reported circulating in body fluids before, were found to possess potent anti-breast cancer activity. Based on this finding, it is hypothesized that Na,K-ATPase derivatives could be circulating in the body and potential candidate biomarkers for early disease detection.
