Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAnti β2-Glycoprotein I Antibodies in Women with Recurrent Spontaneous AbortionAbdolreza Sotoodeh Jahromi, Mohammad Reza Farjam, Farideh Mogharrab et al.Problem statement: Antiphospholipid antibodies (aPL) are associated with repeated miscarriages and pregnancy complications, however their pathogenic mechanisms are still matter of research. Anti-β2 glycoprotein 1 (β2GPI) antibody is one of these aPL that its contribution to RSA risk remains poorly understood. There were not any data about role this auto-antibody in RSA in South of Iran. This study was conducted … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2010 · 7,787 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAnti-Toxoplasma gondii Antibodies in Haemodialysis PatientsKavous Solhjoo, Abdolreza Sotoodeh Jahromi, Ayeh Parnian-RadProblem statement: In situations of immunodeficiency, Toxoplasma gondii emerges as a life-threatening infection. Toxoplasma gondii is transmitted parenterally, flourish in immunocompromised subjects and, most toxoplasma infections are asymptomatic. Studies have shown that there is a immunodeficiency in renal failure patient such as hemodialysis patients and these patients have a high risk for many infections. There is no evidence about toxoplasmosis … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 9,363 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleHeparin-PF4 Antibodies in Heparin Induced Thrombocytopenia: Its Relationship with FcgRIIa PolymorphismMeganathan Kannan, Firdos Ahmad, Sarfraz Ahmad et al.We did the pilot study, in an attempt to determine the prevalence of HIT in Indians and determine its relationship, if any, to FcγRIIa polymorphism, the occurrence of heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT) was investigated in 33 Indian patients undergoing cardiovascular surgery (CVS) who received unfractionated heparin (UFH). Platelet counts were performed prior to the initiation of UFH therapy and 5-16 days, … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2005 · 7,432 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titlePassive Transfer of HIV-1 Antibodies and Drug Resistant Virus during a Health Care Worker Accident: Implications for HCW Post-Exposure ManagementCarlos Fernando De Oliveira, Ricardo Sobhie Diaz, Abdallah Harmache et al.Problem statement: We studied in detail a case in which a nurse caring for an HIV-infected child suffered a deep-laceration accident with contaminated blood. Approach: The patient had been treated with zidovudine (ZDV) and the nurse became infected despite prophylactic use of ZDV initiated 2 h after the accident. A reactive anti-HIV-1/2 EIA and an indeterminate western blot (gp120/160 reactivity) … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 6,872 accessesView PDFCite
Research NotesOpen accessEvery word in the titleFunctionalization Strategies for Antibodies: Lessons LearnedChristian Schmidt, Martin Geyer, Jörg Bohrisch et al.Precious little is known about useful functionalization strategies of antibodies that will not impair either reactivity or specificity of this valuable reagent. We used an experimental approach to demonstrate our own experience with published protocols. The conjugates obtained were then tested with regard to their performance against commercially available detection kits. Our results are then viewed in light of published … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 13, Issue 2 · 4 May 2017 · 7,592 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleDETECTABLE ANTI-DENGUE VIRUS IGM ANTIBODIES AMONG HEALTHY INDIVIDUALS IN OGBOMOSO, OYO STATE, NIGERIAE. K. Oladipo, C. Amanetu, T. A. Gbadero, J. K. OlokeDengue fever is a zoonosis maintained in nature by mosquitoes transmitting virus between non-human primate species, most of which develop clinically in apparent infection. It has been found to be endemic in Africa and beyond. A survey for Dengue virus IgM antibody was carried out in Ogbomoso (urban and rural areas) using Enzyme Linked Immunosorbent Assay (WKEA Med Supplies Corp, … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 3 May 2014 · 7,827 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titlePatient and Mouse Antibodies against Dengue Virus Nonstructural Protein 1 Cross-React with Platelets and Cause Their Dysfunction or DepletionChiou-Feng Lin, Huan-Yao Lei, Ching-Chuan Liu et al.Thrombocytopenia is a clinical manifestation in dengue virus (DV) infection, yet its pathogenic mechanisms are unresolved. We previously showed that dengue patient sera contained antibodies cross-reactive with platelets. In this study, we demonstrated that the anti-platelet activity of dengue patient sera was due to the antibodies against DV nonstructural protein 1 (NS1). Studies using DV-infected or recombinant NS1-immunized mouse sera … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 7,321 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleImmunomodulatory Treatment of Infertility in Men with Elevated Antisperm AntibodiesIvan Bubanovic, Slobodan Kojic, Stevo Najman, Zlatibor AndjelkovicPossible causes of subfertility or infertility in men are still poorly defined, but one important category may be elevated level of antisperm antibodies (ASA) caused by infective and/or autoimmune diseases, as well as injuries of male reproductive system. In this study, blood sera from 45 infertile men of different age with ASA positive ELISA test were examined for the serum … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2005 · 8,839 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsβ1,3-GLUCAN ANTICANCER EFFICACIES AND SYNERGIES: A REVIEWStory Jenny, Vetvicka Vaclav, Angove Michaelβ1,3-glucans from fungi, cereals, seaweeds and bacteria have been shown to possess favourable biological and anti-carcinogenic activities including upregulation of phagocytosis, cytokine production enhancement, superoxide and nitrite production; antibody secretion and stimulation of signalling pathways associated with proto-oncogene expression. However, human dietary supplements containing β1,3-glucans vary in efficacy due to glucan source, the lifecycle stage of the source at extraction, … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 10, Issue 3 · 3 Sep 2014 · 8,759 accessesView PDFCite
