Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA COMPARATIVE STUDY OF ANTI-PHOSPHATIDYL INOSITOLE ANTIBODIES IN PATIENTS WITH MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION AND HEALTHY SUBJECTSAbdolreza Sotoodeh Jahromi, Mohammad Shojaei, Fatemeh Mehdizadeh et al.Immune system and inflamation is widely known to play a key role in the development and progression of cardiovascular diseases. Anti-Phospholipid (aPL) antibodies may act in the induction of immunological response leading to the development of Acute Myocardial Infarction (AMI). Anti-Phosphatidyl Inositole (PI) Antibody (Ab) has been seen in various diseases including rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus and anti-phospholipid antibody … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 23 Jan 2014 · 7,185 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAntigenic and Immunogenic Components of Haemonchus longistipes Identified by Western ImmunoblotingE. M. El Hassan, Sabry M. El-BahrThe present study aimed to examine the ways that the Haemonchus longistipes components interact with the host by investigating the components of the parasite which acted as antigens during infection and those who are capable of inducing immune response when administered as immunogens. Adult H. longistipes worms (300 females and 200 males) were obtained from the abomasums of naturally infected … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 20 Sep 2012 · 7,498 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Impact of Helicobacter Pylori Infection on Lung Function and Severity of Bronchial Hyperresponsiveness in Subjects with Allergic AsthmaJordan B. Minov, Jovanka Karadzinska-Bislimovska, Kristin Vasilevska et al.Problem statement: There is evidence that Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection may modify immune response and decrease the risk of asthma and other allergic diseases, as well. Approach: To assess the impact of H. pylori infection on lung function parameters and severity of Bronchial Hyperresponsiveness (BHR) in subjects with allergic asthma. A cross-sectional study including 38 H. pylori positive subjects … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 29 Feb 2012 · 7,134 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPlasma Thyroid Hormone Concentrations and pH Values of Some GI-Tract Segments of Broilers Fed on Different Dietary Citric Acid and Microbial Phytase LevelsRouhollah Nourmohammadi, Seyed Mohammad Hosseini, Hamed Saraee, Alireza ArabProblem statement: An experiment was conducted to study the effect of microbial phytase supplementation and citric acid on thyroid activity, relative weight of lymphoid organs and pH values of some GI-tract segments in broiler chickens fed corn-soybean meal based diets. Approach: The data was analyzed using a Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) with factorial arrangement of 3×3, three levels of … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 26 Apr 2011 · 8,316 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFormulation and Evaluation of a Novel Needle-Free Hepatitis B Surface Antigen Delivery SystemC. D. Licy, K. Premalatha, Annie Shirwaikar, Arun ShirwaikarProblem statement: Hepatitis B is a major public health problem, killing 1-2 million people annually, despite the introduction of an effective vaccine in 1982. Approximately 400 million persons worldwide have chronic hepatitis B. This is due to problems associated with vaccine delivery, stability and cost. Hence the present challenge in Vaccinology is to develop safer, cheaper and easy-to-deliver forms of … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Oct 2010 · 6,819 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Salmonella typhimurium Challenge on Swine Growth, Nitrogen Balance, Insulin-like Growth Factor-I, and Acute Phase ProteinsJ.A. Loughmiller, S.S. Dritz, J.L. Nelssen et al.Growing barrows were used to determine the effects of an en teric disease challenge on nutrient balance, growth, acute phase proteins, and IGF-I. Pigs were challenged on d 0 with Salmonella typhimurium (S; N=21), or unchallenged and fed ad libitum (A; n=6), or unchallenged and pair-fed the same amount of feed as a challenged pig (P; n=8). Blood was collected … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2007 · 7,552 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 · 6,956 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIn vitro Activation of Human and Rat Lymphocyte and Macrophage Functions by NorepinephrineRicardo Gomez-Flores, Diana Caballero-Hernandez, Richard J. Weber et al.Norepinephrine (NE) has been associated not only with increasing blood pressure, atherosclerosis, heart disease, and other life threatening conditions, but also with altering immune responses by influencing leukocyte functions. In the present study, we evaluated the in vitro effects of NE on rat thymic lymphocyte and human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (HPBMC) functions. We observed that NE marginally, but significantly … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2005 · 7,075 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRelease of Endogenous Chondroitin Sulfate and Heparin as Consequence of Dysregulated Proteolysis in COVID-19Marco RuggieroInfection by severe acute respiratory syndrome-related coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), the pathogen responsible for COVID-19, is associated with immune-mediated responses that lead to dysregulated activation of proteolytic enzymes; these contribute to damage to the endothelium, thrombosis, hypercoagulability and other hematologic complications that include thrombotic thrombocytopenia, a complication of severe COVID-19 as well as a potentially fatal adverse effect of COVID-19 vaccination. … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 17, Issue 1 · 29 Dec 2021 · 7,688 accessesView PDFCite
