Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Sled Dog Model for Positive Health Effects of Weight Management and ExerciseLaura Falkenstein, Scott Jerome et al.Obesity is a significant risk factor for metabolic syndrome and type II diabetes. Physical activity and/or dietary modification can reduce the incidence of obesity. Marginal fitness levels limit the efficacy of exercise training, and most humans choose from a wide range of dietary strategies to lose weight. Despite these limitations, exercise in the absence of weight loss may offer protective … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 19, Issue 1 · 23 Feb 2023 · 6,151 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEimeria Legionensis and Eimeria kofoidi (Apicomplexa: Eimeriidae) Infection and Associated Lesions in Naturally Infected Red-Legged Partridges (Alectoris rufa)G. Fichi, G. Rossi, Stefania PerrucciWith the aim to identify the Eimeria species responsible for coccidiosis in 50 deceased red-legged partridges (Alectoris rufa), individual faecal samples were collected, dissolved in 2.5% K2Cr2O7 solution and maintained at room temperature to allow sporulation of the oocysts. Morphology and dimensions of sporulated oocysts were microscopically evaluated. To assess Eimeria intestinal localisation, faecal samples and scrapings taken from the … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 4 · 9 Nov 2017 · 7,689 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Effect of Bovine Cartilage on the Growth of Mouse B16F10 Melanoma Cells in vitro and in vivoArax Tanelian, Dalal F. Jaber, Nayla S. Al Akl, Alexander M. AbdelnoorEarlier reports indicated that Bovine Cartilage (BC) had anti-tumor effects but only a few in vitro and in vivo investigations were conducted to assess its mechanism of action. The aim of this study was to investigate some of the proposed mechanisms of action of BC on mouse melanoma cells both in vitro and in vivo and to determine if its … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 12, Issue 3 · 26 Oct 2016 · 7,489 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Short Term in vitro Stress Hormone Exposure on Regulatory T Cell Number and Function in AsthmaKristina E. Rehm, Gailen D. Marshall, Jr.Asthma is characterized by alterations in the immune system, including regulatory T cells (Treg). Further alterations in Treg numbers and/or function caused by stress hormones may be a contributing factor in asthma pathogenesis. We compared Treg populations and the effects of Dexamethasone (DEX, a laboratory analog of cortisol) on Treg cell number and function in patients with asthma and a … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 24 Apr 2015 · 6,608 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHigh Frequency of Stop Codons in the Human Immunodeficiency Virus-1 Protease Gene Frame in Human Immunodeficiency Virus+ Individuals with Below Detectable Levels of Plasma Viremia During Highly Active Antiretroviral TherapyMagdalena Czubala, Kabo Matlho, Maria Arriaga et al.We performed sequence analysis of HIV-1 proviral protease gene fragment (560 base pairs) amplified from ex-vivo peripheral blood mononuclear cells of 83 HIV+ individuals with Below Detectable Levels (BDL) (<20-40 RNA copies/ml plasma) and detectable levels of plasma HIV viremia while on HAART. Noteworthy was the systematic presence of stop codons identified only in the BDL group and not in … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 14 Nov 2012 · 8,073 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFrequency of P/S(XX)P Duplication and FRFE, Absence of LYP in P6Gag of Indian Human Immunodeficiency Virus-1 Subtype C IsolatesKrutika Wadekar, Sudhanshu Pandey, Preeti Jain et al.Problem statement: The presence of a p6 domain at the C-terminus of the Gag polyprotein is a characteristic feature of HIV-1 and other primate lentiviruses. The p6Gag protein is considered as a major phosphoprotein in mature HIV-1 virions and is involved in the viral assembly and budding process. Sequence variation in the p6gag region in HIV-1 has been associated with … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 31 Oct 2010 · 7,529 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEIAV Effectiveness Detection by Nested PCR Comparing two Different Samples: PBMCs and Bronchoalveolar WashElizangela Maira Dos Santos, Pedro Moreira Couto Motta, Marcos Bryan Heinemann et al.Problem statement: Equine Infectious Anemia (EIA) is a chronic, relapsing infectious disease of horses caused by Equine Infectious Anemia Virus (EIAV). The objective of this experiment was compared EIAV effectiveness detection in Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells (PBMCs) and Bronchoalveolar wash (BAW) from naturally infected horses. Approach: Fifty seven DNA samples isolated from PBMCs and BAW of naturally infected animals were … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 7,462 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRal-Binding Protein is Required for the Maturation and Function of Dendritic CellsJozef Borvak, Mukesh Sahu, Varun Joy et al.Problem statement: Dendritic Cells (DCs) integrate responses of innate and adaptive immune system via transmitting pro-inflammatory and regulatory signals to naïve cells within draining lymph nodes. DCs have high capacity for endocytosis, both Clathrin-Dependent (CDE) and Caveolin-Dependent (CvDE). Approach: We have recently shown that ATP-hydrolysis by the multifunctional transporter protein RLIP76 is the primary determinant of the rate of CDE. … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 13 Sep 2010 · 8,095 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractReactive Nitrogen Intermediates Production by Macrophages of Mycobacterium bovis-Infected Goats and Supplemented with Dyhidroxyvitamin D3 in vivoAurora Martinez-Romero, Jose Luis Ortega-Sanchez, Jose Ramon Hernandez-Salgado et al.Problem statement: Tuberculosis (TB) remains one of the world's major health problems. To evaluate in vivo indices of cellular sensitization, antigen-induced Reactive Nitrogen Intermediates (RNI) responses by blood mononuclear cells from Mycobacterium bovis BCG-infected goats supplemented with 1, 25 dyhidroxyvitamin D3 [1, 25-(OH)2D3]. Approach: An experimental, longitudinal and comparative study was planned. Twelve animals of goat cattle 20-to 24-month-old sannen … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 7,615 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPeripheral Blood Leukocyte Production of BDNF following Mitogen Stimulation in Early Onset and Regressive AutismAmanda Enstrom, Charity Onore, Angela Tarver et al.Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) is critical for neuronal differentiation and synaptic development. BDNF is also implicated in the development of psychological disorders including depression, bipolar disorder and schizophrenia. Previously, elevated BDNF levels were observed in neonatal blood samples from infants who were later diagnosed with autism when compared with children who developed normally, suggesting that BDNF may be involved in … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2008 · 8,525 accessesView PDFCite
