Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnti-Phosphatidylserine Antibodies in Acute Myocardial InfarctionAbdolreza Sotoodeh Jahromi, Mohammad Shojaei, Mohammad Reza Farjam, Abdolhossien MadaniAcute Myocardial Infarction (AMI) is the combined result of environmental factors and personal predispositions. Many factors play a role in AMI including anti-Phospholipid (aPL) antibodies, that may act in the induction of immunological response leading to the development of AMI. Anti-Phosphatidylserine (PS) antibody is detected in various diseases like rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus and anti-phospholipid antibody syndrome. The study … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 21 Sep 2013 · 6,963 accessesView PDFCite

Currently, diagnosis of M. pneumoniae infection will based principally on serology and the detection of IgM can provide an early and sensitive diagnosis in children. A variety of commercial immunodiagnostic assays, such as Indirect Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent (ELISA) assay and Indirect Immunofluorescence (IFA), are now available … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 21 Jun 2013 · 7,416 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPlacebo-Driven Clinical Trials of Transfer Point Glucan #300 in Children with Chronic Respiratory Problems: Antibody ProductionVetvicka Vaclav, Richter Josef, Svozil Vladimir et al.The role of glucan in stimulation of immune reactions has been well-established. In this report, we focused on the antibody production in glucan-supplemented children with chronic respiratory problems. We measured the levels of salivary IgA, IgM and IgG in 40 children aged 8-12 years and evaluated the effects of 100 mg d-1 oral dose of glucan. We found a significant … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 5 Jun 2013 · 10,468 accessesView PDFCite
