EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractGLUTATHIONE: A POSSIBLE LINK TO AUTOPHAGY IN SYSTEMIC LUPUS ERYTHEMATOSUSDilip Shah, Swapan K. NathIncreased free radical formation and altered redox state are of fundamental importance in the pathogenesis of autoimmune diseases including Systemic Lupus Erythematos (SLE). Free radicals are mainly derived from oxygen (Reactive Oxygen Species/ROS) and nitrogen (Reactive Nitrogen Species/RNS) at mitochondria, cellular membranes and the endoplasmic reticulum membrane as physiological responses to a variety of internal and external stress (Shah et … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 10, Issue 3 · 3 Sep 2014 · 12,773 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMELATONIN PROTECTS THE INTEGRITY OF GASTRIC STRUCTURE FROM A STERILE TISSUE INJURY AND AUGMENTS BOTH MONONUCLEAR AND POLYMORPHONUCLEAR PERIPHERAL BLOOD CELLS INDUCED BY THE INJURY IN WISTAR ALBINO RATSBahjat Al-AniPeptic ulcer is a common upper gastrointestinal disease that remains a major public health problem. Gastric ulceration caused by Nonsteroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs (NSAID), stress and alcohol are the common causes of gastric ulcer formation in humans following helicobacter pylori bacterial infection of the stomach. The neurohormone, melatonin was reported to protect against NSAID- and stress-induced gastric lesions. We sought to … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 17 Mar 2014 · 7,227 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA COMPARATIVE STUDY OF ANTI-PHOSPHATIDYL INOSITOLE ANTIBODIES IN PATIENTS WITH MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION AND HEALTHY SUBJECTSAbdolreza Sotoodeh Jahromi, Mohammad Shojaei, Fatemeh Mehdizadeh et al.Immune system and inflamation is widely known to play a key role in the development and progression of cardiovascular diseases. Anti-Phospholipid (aPL) antibodies may act in the induction of immunological response leading to the development of Acute Myocardial Infarction (AMI). Anti-Phosphatidyl Inositole (PI) Antibody (Ab) has been seen in various diseases including rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus and anti-phospholipid antibody … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 23 Jan 2014 · 7,185 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssociation of Anti-Phosphatidylcholine Antibodies with Acute Myocardial Infarction: A Comparative StudyAbdolreza Sotoodeh Jahromi, Mohammad Shojaei, Mohammad Reza Farjam, Abdolhossien MadaniMany factors play a role in Acute Myocardial Infarction (AMI). One those anti-Phospholipid (aPL) antibodies, that may act in the induction of immunological response leading to the development of AMI. Anti-Phosphatidylcholines (PC) antibody is detected in various diseases like rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus and anti-phospholipid antibody syndrome. The study of anti-PC antibody in AMI might shed light on etiologic … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 28 Oct 2013 · 7,126 accessesView PDFCite
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
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRespiratory Tract-Widening Effects of Dihydroartemisinin in Wistar Albino RatsUtoh-Nedosa Uchechukwu, Njoku Goddy, S. Nedosa Kenechi et al.Problem statement: Artemisinin-based anti-malarials are currently widely used in Asia and Africa. Not much is known about the systemic effect of dihydroartemisinin. This study therefore examine the effect of dihydroartemisinin on the lungs of Wistar albino rats. Approach: Five dosages of Dihydroartemisinin (DHA) were administered by oral intubation for 5 days to 5 test and 4 control Wistar albino rats. … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 17 Aug 2011 · 7,515 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Hyperoxia on Brain Tissue Oxygen Tension in Non-Sedated, Non- Anesthetized Arctic Ground Squirrels: An Animal Model of Hyperoxic StressYilong Ma, Shufen Wu, Lawrence DuffyArctic Ground Squirrels (AGS) are classic hibernators known for their tolerance to hypoxia. AGS have been studied as a model of hypoxia with potential as a medical research model. Problem statement: Their unique resistance to the stressors of low oxygen led us to hypothesize that AGS might also be adaptable to hyperoxia. Approach: This study examined the physiological pattern associated … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 26 Apr 2011 · 8,473 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInduced Resistance in Mycorrhizal Tomato is correlated to Concentration of Jasmonic AcidRupam KapoorThe study shows that Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi (AMF) are capable of imparting disease tolerance in tomato plants pre-infected with Fusarium Oxysporum f. sp. Lycopersici (FOL). Inoculation of tomato seedlings with Glomus Macrocarpum (GM) or Glomus Fasciculatum (GF), 20 days after infection with FOL reduced pathogen spread and disease severity by 75 and 78 %, respectively. The mycorrhizal plants showed increased … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2008 · 14,214 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHumoral Immune Response in Tuberculous PleuritisPrabha C., Kripa V. Jalapathy, Sulochana D. DasTuberculous pleuritis is a good human model to understand the local and protective immune response against tuberculosis, due to the self-limitedness of the disease. Although the cellular immune response has been well characterised in tuberculous pleurisy, much less is known about the humoral immune response operating at the site of infection. To understand the humoral immune response, B cells were … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 6,518 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractAn Opportunity for the Agricultural Sector: The Renewable Energy SourcesRiccardo Testa, Salvatore TudiscaToday, among the most important issue for energy decisions by policymakers, there are security challenges and environmental impacts on climate change and economic aspects.
