Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGenomic Signature of Respiratory Microbes on Human Scalp EpitheliaBhola Nath Paul, Vani Mishra, Jasmeet Kaur Chhabra, Divyani PaulDespite overlap between habitats occupied by diverse Airborne Respiratory Microbes (ARM), the airway epithelium is known for respiratory microbe infections, human scalp epithelium is undocumented. Analogous to airways epithelium, the scalp epithelium is vulnerable to infection by dormant variants of sensitive microbes that underlie many chronic and relapsing diseases, difficult to eradicate by conventional antibiotics and challenged our ability to … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 11 Sep 2015 · 7,079 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProposal of a Genome Editing System for Genetic Resistance to Tomato Spotted Wilt VirusFederico Martinelli, Giovanni Grillone, Filippo SgroiViruses provoke considerable economical losses in agriculture. New molecular approaches to develop genetic resistance based on translational genomics and precision genetic modifications are highly expected. The type II Clustered, Regularly Interspaced Palindromic Repeats (CRISPR) system including Cas9 nuclease represent a promising and very powerful tool to specifically modulate the expression and activity of genes involved in biotic stress responses. In … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 11 · 7 Jan 2015 · 7,689 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDUAL ROLES OF CANCER CELL-EXPRESSED IMMUNOGLOBULINS IN CANCER IMMUNOLOGYGregory Lee, Cheng-Yuan Huang, Suefay Liu et al.While the expression of immunoglobulins and T cell receptors on cancer cells has been well-established for decades, the potential roles and mechanisms of action of these cancerous antigen receptors have not been fully elucidated. A monoclonal antibody designated as RP215, which reacts specifically with the carbohydrate-associated epitope located on the heavy chain region of cancerous immunoglobulins and T cell receptors, … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 10, Issue 3 · 2 Oct 2014 · 7,870 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGENOTYPIC IDENTIFICATION OF CANDIDA SPP. ISOLATED FROM ONYCHOCANDIDIASIS PATIENTS BY PHENOTYPIC METHODS, PCR AND RAPD-PCRZaidan Khlaif Imran, H. Al-GhalibiCandidal Onychomycosis (COM) is a common nail disease which plays as sources pathogenic reservoir giving a rise to repeated candidiasis infections. This study aimed to evaluate PCR assays and phenotypic tests for identification of yeasts isolated from COM patients. The study included 100 clinically suspected patients of COM attending the main hospital and clinics in Al-Dewania province in the middle … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 31 Dec 2013 · 7,266 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIsolation of the Antimicrobial Cyclic Peptide Subtilosin a from a Gut-Associated Bacillus subtilis StrainGhislain Schyns, Claudia R. Serra, Adriano O. Henriques et al.The endospore-forming Bacillus subtilis has been used as probiotics over the last 50 years. However, little is known on how Bacillus spp act in the gut compared to other well-characterized probiotics such as lactic acid bacteria. It is believed that the competitive exclusion of pathogens results from different mode of action notably the production of antimicrobial compounds such as bacteriocins. … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 21 Sep 2013 · 7,682 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSclerostin: A Novel Key to Bone and Dental TreatmentGalli Carlo, Lumetti Simone, Manfredi Edoardo et al.Problem statement: Tooth loss can induce dramatical remodeling of alveolar bone because of mechanical loading impairment and strategies to help maintain adequate bone levels for subsequent therapies are sorely needed. Recent discoveries have shown that osteocytes, matrix-embedded cells in bone, respond to mechanical stimulation by modulating the expression of the Sost gene, which encodes for the protein sclerostin. This protein … …Current Research in Dentistry, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 1 Jan 2013 · 8,161 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDietary Fats and Heart Disease: From Prenatal to Postnatal EnvironmentSukhinder K. CheemaProblem statement: Heart disease is the leading cause of death worldwide and is dramatically increasing in developing countries. Preventive approaches, such as dietary and lifestyle changes can have major health implications to prevent the onset of heart disease. Besides healthy nutrition in the adult life, maternal nutrition during pregnancy and lactation can also have a significant impact on the outcome … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 10 Aug 2012 · 7,437 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDiscovery of Evolutionary Divergence of Biological Nitrogen Fixation and Photosynthesis: Fine Tuning of Biogenesis of the NifH and the ChlL by a Peptidyl-Prolyl Cis/Trans IsomeraseNara Gavini, Sinny Delacroix, Kelvin Harris Jr., Lakshmi PulakatProblem statement: Despite the structural and functional similarities between the nitrogenase that performs biological nitrogen fixation reaction and the Dark Protochlorphyllide Oxidoreductase (DPOR) that performs chlorophyll-biosynthesis, attempts to substitute nitrogenase-components with DPOR-components have hitherto failed. This investigation was undertaken to test if Chlamydomonas reinhardtii protochlorophyllide (Pchlide) reductase (ChlL) that shares some structural similarity with Nitrogenase Reductase (NifH) could complement the … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 17 Feb 2012 · 7,620 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractResistance to Citrus Canker in Key/Mexican Lime Induced by β-Aminobutyric Acid and Green TeaB. Beheshti, G.R. Sharifi-Sirchi, M. Mansouri et al.Citrus bacterial canker, caused by Xanthomonas citri subsp. citri (Xcc), is a destructive disease. So far used chemicals to control this pathogen are either not effective or have harmful effects on the environment. To improve control of this disease, lime (Citrus aurantifolia) plants inoculated with Xcc were treated with β-Aminobutyric Acid (BABA), ascorbic acid (vitamin C), thiamin (vitamin B1), green … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 6 Jun 2011 · 8,191 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractZinc Deficiency and Associated T-Cell Dysfunctioning among Human Immunodeficiency Virus SeropositivesM. Andrew Pradeep, M. Thiruvalluvan, V. Nalini, J. Stella MaryProblem statement: All the nutrients in the diet play a crucial role in maintaining an optimal immune response. In both, deficient and excessive intake of nutrients can have negative consequence on the immune status and susceptibility to a variety of pathogens. Zinc is an essential micronutrient for human growth development and immune function. It plays a vital role in structure … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 31 Oct 2010 · 8,041 accessesView PDFCite
