We report a 57-year-oldman with HBV-related mononeuritis multiplex who had symptoms of multiplesensory-motor axonal polyneuropathies. He was evaluated for his neuropathy withnerve conduction studies and a sural nerve biopsy that revealed necrotizingsmall-vessel vasculitis. He also hadan acute liver injury. He was started on … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 18, Issue 4 · 16 Nov 2022 · 5,719 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsCTLA-4 Gene Polymorphism in Relation to Thyroid Disorders in Patients with Chronic Hepatitis C Under Interferon Alpha TherapySalwa M. Abo El-Khair, Abd El-Hameed A. Metwali, Mohamed Abd El-Maksoud, Tarek BesheerThyroid autoimmunity and dysfunction have reported as side effects of interferon-α treatment. The CT60 and exon 1+49 A/G polymorphisms in the Cytotoxic T-Lymphocyte Antigen 4 (CTLA-4) gene have linked to susceptibility to autoimmune disease. The aim of this research was to analyze the frequencies of CTLA-4 CT60 and +49 A/G polymorphisms and evaluate both polymorphisms as indicators of thyroid disorder … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 20 Sep 2012 · 7,582 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsHepatitis B Diagnosis Using Logical Inference and Self-Organizing MapGhumbre Shashikant Uttreshwar, A.A. GhatolDespite all the standardization efforts made, medical diagnosis is still regarded as an art owing to the fact that that medical diagnosis requires an expertise in handling the uncertainty which is unavailable in today's computing machinery. Though artificial intelligence is not a new concept it has been widely recognized as a new technology in computer science. Numerous areas such as … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2008 · 6,874 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsUltrastructural and Immunological Characterization of Hepatitis C Core Protein-DNA Plasmid ComplexesNelson Acosta-Rivero, Yaraima Aguilera, Viviana Falcon et al.Recently, it has been shown that a truncated HCV core (HCcAg) variant, covering the first 120 aa (HCcAg.120), interacts with plasmid DNA vaccine (pIDKE2), encoding the HCV structural proteins (HCcAg, E1 and E2). In the present work, HCcAg.120-pIDKE2 complexes, forming heterogeneous packaged structures, were visualized using a negative stain/rotary shadow technique. Interestingly, 72 hours after intramuscular injection of HCcAg.120-pIDKE2 complexes … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2006 · 6,743 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsThe HCV Replicase InteractomeAntonio Mas, Pilar Clemente-Casares, Eugenio Ramírez, Rosario SabariegosViruses are obligate parasites and can only reproduce within host cells because they lack metabolic pathways to complete their replication cycles. Host factors required in viral replication are mainly those involved in lipid metabolism, cell cycle control and apoptosis, cell-to-cell interactions, immune system regulation, etc. Several inhibitors targeting viral polymerases have been designed. However, the rapid appearance of resistant mutants, … …Current Research in Virology, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 27 Jul 2016 · 13,210 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssessment of Thyroid Hormone Level Alterations in Hepatitis B-Positive Serum Using a Quantitative Immunofluorescence Assay: A Randomized Controlled TrialHyeokjun Yun, Bo Kyeung Jung et al.This retrospective study aimed to assess the differences in serum biomarker levels, specifically thyroid hormone (free T4 and Thyroid-Stimulating Hormone [TSH]) levels, according to the presence or absence of Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) infection. Using a quantitative immunofluorescence assay, we analyzed serum samples from patients with confirmed HBV infection at Dankook University Hospital in Cheonan Province, Republic of Korea, between … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 19, Issue 2 · 31 Jul 2023 · 5,030 accessesView PDFCite
