Literature ReviewOpen accessIn the abstractOzone Therapy: Overview of its Potential Utility in Male ReproductionZaher Merhi, Ali Bazzi, Rajean Moseley-LaRue et al.Ozone (O3), a highly water-soluble inorganic molecule, is a gas made of three atoms of oxygen (O) with a cyclic structure. Ozone can be produced by medical generators from pure oxygen after passing through a high voltage gradient. Ozone therapy (OT) can be given in medical practice via several routes that include transdermal, intramuscular, rectal, nasal, oral, vaginal, intravenous, intra-arterial, … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 4 Jan 2019 · 9,586 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractScreening and Characterization of Sponge-Associated Bacteria Producing Bioactive Compounds Anti-Vibrio sp.Aris Tri Wahyudi, Jepri Agung Priyanto, Wenang Maharsiwi, Rika Indri AstutiIn Indonesia, vibriosis is the main disease in shrimp. This disease is caused by Vibrio sp that may decrease the productivity of shrimp cultivation. Thus, exploration for new bioactive compounds as vibriosis biocontrol agent is necessary. Marine sponge-associated bacteria is one of many sources for bioactive compounds. The aim of this study was to screen marine sponge-associated bacteria producing anti-Vibrio … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 14, Issue 3 · 5 Oct 2018 · 10,357 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Effect of Lactobacillus Plantarum and Bacterial Peptidoglycan on the Growth of Mouse Tumors in vivo and in vitroArpa Aintablian, Dalal F. Jaber, Mary Ann Jallad, Alexander M. AbdelnoorSome members of the microbiota have been shown to be effective strategies for inhibiting tumor growth through stimulation of host anti-tumor immune responses. Anti-tumor immune effects were observed when Lactobacillus plantarum (Lp), a member of the gut microbiota, was used to treat colorectal cancer in mice. Moreover, constituents of bacteria, including peptidoglycan (PG), have been shown to exhibit tumoricidal effects. … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 13, Issue 3 · 23 Sep 2017 · 8,451 accessesView PDFCite

Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPromising Effects of Beta-Glucans on Metabolism and on the Immune Responses: Review ArticleViviam de Oliveira Silva, Natália Oliveira de Moura, Larissa Jahnel Rodrigues de Oliveira et al.A public health issue, Diabetes mellitus, affects millions of people around the globe. Ingestion of foods with a low glycemic index - fiber-rich meals-such as beta-glucans, is increasing as an important alternative for diabetes control. These compounds act reducing parameters such as blood glucose, cholesterol and triglycerides, by decreasing the absorption of glucose and lipids by enterocytes and eventually promote … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 13, Issue 1 · 29 Mar 2017 · 12,684 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGlucans and the Poultry Immune SystemJacqueline Jacob, Anthony PescatoreWith the reduced availability of antibiotics, poultry producers are looking for feed additives to stimulate the immune system of their birds. Some beta-glucans have been shown to improve gut health in poultry subjected to a bacterial challenge, to increase the flow of new immunocytes into the various lymphoid organs, to increase macrophage function, to increase antibody titers after a vaccination … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 13, Issue 1 · 12 Apr 2017 · 12,367 accessesView PDFCite
