Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleImmunological Processes in Cancer: A Link Between Inflammation and ImmunityVanessa Jacob Victorino, Isabela Casagrande Jeremias, Anne Karine Martins AssunçãoCancer is a worldwide issue and one of the most relevant death causes in child and adults. There are several causes that can lead to cancer development. It is well known that inflammation is one known hallmark of cancer and it favors tumor cells growth. Several alterations in immunological and inflammatory processes are caused in response to tumor presence and … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 17 Jan 2015 · 7,073 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleInnate, Adaptive and Intrinsic Immunity in Human Immunodeficiency Virus InfectionSuneth S. Perera, Nitin K. SaksenaThe first line of defence of the innate immune system functions by recognizing highly conserved sets of molecular structures specific to the microbes, termed pathogen-associated molecular patterns, or PAMPs via the germ line-encoded receptors Pattern-Recognition Receptors (PRRs). In addition to the innate immune system, the vertebrates have also evolved a second line of defence termed adaptive immune system, which uses … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 27 Nov 2012 · 9,723 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThe Innate Immunity in Bovine Mastitis: The Role of Pattern-Recognition ReceptorsFernando Nogueira de Souza, Eduardo Milton Ramos Sanchez, Marcos Bryan Heinemann et al.Mastitis is the most costly disease for dairy farmers and industry, which are mainly caused by the entry of bacteria to the teat canal. Shortly after the entry of the invading bacteria, the innate immunity recognizes the invading pathogen through pattern recognition receptors and initiates the inflammatory response necessary to eliminate the invading bacteria. This initial inflammatory response releases cytokines … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 18 Oct 2012 · 10,352 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleImmunity to Pneumococcal Vaccine in Splenectomized β-Thalassemia PatientsAbdolreza Sotoodeh Jahromi, Mohammad Reza Farjam, Alireza Makarem et al.Problem statement: Splenectomy is accompanied by a lifelong risk of overwhelming post splenectomy infection, mainly caused by encapsulated bacteria such as Streptococcus pneumoniae. The mortality rate in those infected patients remains high. Therefore the pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine has been recommended. Approach: To obtain information on the immunity levels of pneumococcal antibody, in splenectomized β-thalassemia patients in south of Iran. Patients … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 25 May 2012 · 7,403 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleImmunity to Diphtheria in Haemodialysis PatientsAbdolreza Sotoodeh Jahromi, Mortaza Pourahmd, Sara Azhdari et al.Problem statement: The incidence of infectious diseases is increased in patients with chronic renal failure. Chronic renal failure severely influences the immune functions of the host. Diphtheria is of great epidemiological concern. Although mainly observed during childhood, unvaccinated adults and relatively immunocompromised patients are at increased risk for acquiring diphtheria. Approach: To evaluate the anti-Diphtheria immunity level in southern Iranian … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 27 Jun 2011 · 8,091 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleBetter Understanding of the Immunosuppressive Link between the Lymphocytic Immune Cells and the Decreased Cell Mediated Immunity in Head and Neck Cancer PatientsA.S. Abdulamir, R.R. Hafidh, N. Abdulmuhaimen et al.The purpose of this study was to determine the phenotyping of Peripheral Blood Lymphocytes (PBL) in Head and Neck Cancers (HNCA) patients and to relate this with the level of Cell-Mediated Immunity (CMI) measured by in vitro lymphoproliferative assay, in order to evaluate immune suppression in HNCA patients and its possible mechanisms. Accordingly, one hundred twenty two HNCA patients and … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2008 · 7,303 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAssociation Between Circulating Early Endothelial Progenitors and CD4+CD25+ Regulatory T Cells: A Possible Cross-talk between Immunity and Angiogenesis?Shmuel Schwartzenberg, Adi Mor, Galia Luboshits et al.Regulatory T-cells (Treg) are a recently defined subset of CD4+ cells that can suppress inflammation and induce tolerance. Phenotypically, T-regs are characterized by a high level of expression of the IL-2 receptor alpha chain, CD25. Endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) can transform into mature endothelial cells and promote vessel formation by inducing postnatal angiogenesis and vasculogenesis. Herein, we tested the hypothesis … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2005 · 6,902 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEnhanced Immunity of Hybrid Grouper (Epinephelus sp.) Against Viral Nervous Necrosis Using a Recombinant Protein Nanovaccine from Chlorella VulgarisUun Yanuhar, Herly Evanuarini, Heru Suryanto et al.Hybrid Grouper (Epinephelus sp.) is an important export commodity in marine aquaculture, yet Viral Nervous Necrosis (VNN) remains a major threat. Nanovaccines are a type of vaccine developed by combining vaccine ingredients with silver nanoparticles and recombinant protein from Chlorella vulgaris. These formulations are designed to effectively boost the body's immune system response to prevent disease infection and destroy pathogenic … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 3 · 22 Nov 2025 · 2,154 accessesView PDFCite
