Literature ReviewOpen accessEvery word in the titleFundamental Questions about γδT CellsMoulay Yassine Belghali, Saadia Ba-M’hamed, Mouna Khouchani, Brahim AdmouγδT cells is a minor subgroup of T lymphocytes expressing γδ-T Cell Receptor (TCR), with many subsets, dominated by Vδ2 and Vδ1. γδT cells recognize antigens independently of the context of MHC class I, MHC class II, or CD1 presenting molecules. However, this recognition requires the expression of the transmembrane Butyrophilin proteins by the presenting cells. Their activation is controlled … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 20, Issue 4 · 15 Dec 2020 · 6,382 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleBlood-Circulating Type 2 Follicular Helper T Cells in Pediatric Allergy PatientsMasaaki Hamada, Yoshihiko Sakurai, Tomohiro TakedaPediatric allergic diseases are primarily caused by an IgE-dependent immunological reaction. Despite studies reporting the involvement of T follicular Helper (TfH) cells, especially type 2 TfH cells, in class-switching to IgE production in B cells, TfH subset skewing in peripheral blood in pediatric allergy patients remains to be elucidated. This study aimed to investigate the possible involvement of type 2 … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 16, Issue 1 · 18 Jun 2020 · 7,505 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleInhibitory Effect of Crude Walnut Leaf Polysaccharides on Oxidative Damage of Proteins and Proliferation of SGC-7901 CellsShuqing Yang, Zhike Xie, Shuyan Yu et al.In this paper, we studied the inhibitory effect of crude Walnut Leaf Polysaccharides (WLP) on free radical-induced oxidative damage of proteins and anti-proliferation activity on human Gastric Cancer cells (SGC-7901). The oxidative degradation of Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA), mouse brain proteins (MBP) and Mouse Liver Proteins (MLP) induced by hydroxyl radical and alcoxyl radical was analyzed by Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate-Polyacrylamide … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 16, Issue 2 · 26 Apr 2020 · 7,057 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleInhibition Effect of Walnut Leaf Polysaccharide on HepG2 Cells in vitroShuqing Yang, Haifang Xiao, Shuyan Yu et al.In this study, the effect of Walnut Leaf Polysaccharides (WLP) on human liver tumor HepG2 cells was investigated. The results showed that WLP had dose-dependent and time-dependent inhibitory effects on HepG2 cell viability. Typical apoptosis characteristics were observed in WLP-treated HepG2 cells through 5,5',6,6'-tetrachloro-1,1',3,3'-tetraethyl-benzimidazolyl-carbocyanine iodide (DAPI) staining and Acridine Orange (AO)/Ethidium Bromide (EB) dual staining. Meanwhile, significant decrease in Mitochondrial … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 15, Issue 4 · 29 Oct 2019 · 7,313 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleLarvicidal Activity of Bruceine A against Aedes aegypti and Toxicity on Vero CellsDwi Sutiningsih, Mustofa, Tri Baskoro Tunggul Satoto, Edhi MartonoVector control is still based on the use of chemical insecticides, which can cause death of nontarget animals, pollution and the emergence of vector resistance. This study aims to assess the larvicidal activity of bruceine A against larvae of Aedes aegypti and its cytotoxic activity against Vero cells. Extraction and isolation of bruceine A from the seeds of Brucea javanica … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 3 · 4 Sep 2018 · 7,912 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleIsolation and Identification of Oral Cancer Stem Cells (CSC) within Commercially Available Cell LinesRobert Chauncey, Kai Hatch, Toni Jilka et al.Previous studies have demonstrated some tumors develop or maintain a small sub-population of cells with stem cell-like properties. This Cancer Stem Cells (CSC) may exhibit differential properties that allow their escape from traditional radiation or chemotherapy treatments and may therefore be responsible for cancer recurrence. Few studies have explored this phenomenon among oral cancer cell lines, therefore the objective of … …Current Research in Dentistry, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 2 Jun 2018 · 12,719 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleDoes Iron Modulate Cytokine Production by Desferrioxamine Treated Mononuclear Cells?Hanna Bessler, Meir DjaldettiIron is an essential element for maintaining the normal function of cellular and multicellular organisms and it is closely associated with inflammation and immunity. Macrophages and lymphocytes play an important role in its homeostasis. Hereby we have evaluated cytokine production by iron depleted and iron supplemented human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) from healthy adult donors. Non-stimulated or stimulated PBMC … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 1 · 7 Jan 2018 · 6,845 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleSpermatogonial Stem Cells: A Current Update in the Management of Azoospermic Infertile MenSilvia W Lestari, Debby AdityaOne of the management of azoospermia is utilizing Assisted Reproductive Technologies (ART) by Intra-Cytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI) with sperm obtained from the epididymis or directly from testis. In some conditions such as hypogonadism or undescended testis, the sperm are not successfully obtained. Thus, it is considered to perform Spermatogonial Stem Cells (SSCs) culture to restore men fertility. The objective of … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 4 · 5 Dec 2017 · 6,923 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleChronic Mental Stress Induces Reversible Reduction of Natural Killer Cells and CD56dim SubpopulationManar M. IsmailGenerally, studying to be a health care provider is a stressful and demanding field and the students have to face many stressors that may affect their general health status including the immune system. This work aimed at studying the effect of prolonged naturalistic life-stress exposure on the percentage of peripheral blood T-lymphocytes and Natural Killer (NK) cells in female laboratory … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 13, Issue 3 · 30 Aug 2017 · 7,792 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleSpecific Markers for Hepatic Progenitor CellsMsy Rulan Adnindya, Indriyani, Ahmad Azmi Nasution, Isabella Kurnia LiemOne of mammalian organs that has remarkable ability to regenerate, liver, regenerates through the proliferation of hepatocytes or proliferation and differentiation of the stem cells resident. Some literatures states that these stem cells, the Hepatic Progenitor Cells (HPCs), are oval cells that have bipotential ability to be cholangiocytes and hepatocytes. However, the mechanisms of programming, activation of proliferation and maturation/differentiation … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 3 · 13 Jul 2017 · 9,286 accessesView PDFCite
