Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProposal of a Genome Editing System for Genetic Resistance to Tomato Spotted Wilt VirusFederico Martinelli, Giovanni Grillone, Filippo SgroiViruses provoke considerable economical losses in agriculture. New molecular approaches to develop genetic resistance based on translational genomics and precision genetic modifications are highly expected. The type II Clustered, Regularly Interspaced Palindromic Repeats (CRISPR) system including Cas9 nuclease represent a promising and very powerful tool to specifically modulate the expression and activity of genes involved in biotic stress responses. In … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 11 · 7 Jan 2015 · 7,685 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractASSOCIATION OF TESTOSTERONE AND CHOLESTEROL LEVEL IN MODULATION OF IMMUNITY AND SEVERITY OF DISEASE IN VISCERAL LEISHMANIASIS PATIENTS-A PRELIMINARY STUDYKrishna Pandey, Dharmendra Singh, Sanjiva Bimal et al.Males are more prone to Visceral Leishmaniasis (VL) as compared to females. The role of androgens in host defence against Leishmania and other pathogens is of considerable interest. This study was aimed to understand a baseline mechanistic understanding of the pathogenesis of visceral leishmaniasis with respect to testosterone. We examined the relationship between serum testosterone and cholesterol levels, antigen induced … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 25 Mar 2014 · 7,073 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractActin Cytoskeleton and Related Proteins Role During Immune Cells Migration, Polarity and Activation: An OverviewClaudio Vieira da SilvaImmune cells migration, polarity and activation are essential during host immune response. Upon recognition of specific peptides presented by Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA) molecules on Antigen Presenting Cells (APC), lymphocytes execute subset-related functions such as killing, help and regulation. These cells travel through the organism in a succession of steps, including entry into tissues, interstitial migration, APC scanning, synapse formation … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 19 Nov 2013 · 6,780 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Laser Therapy in Inflamed Tissue by Medications Based on Iodoform Laser Therapy in Inflamed TissuePablicia Juliana Santos Tomaz, Michelle de Paula Farias, Marta Rabello Piva et al.This study aimed to evaluate the inflammatory response of the subcutaneous tissue of twenty rats when the use of iodoform with different drugs or not associated with laser photobiomodulation. In the dorsum of rats were introduced into tubes containing: Iodoform and calcium hydroxide (Ca (OH)2); Iodoform and Ca(OH)2, associated with Laser; Iodoform and Otosporin; Iodoform and Otosporin, associated with Laser. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 18 Jan 2013 · 6,945 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Innate Immunity in Bovine Mastitis: The Role of Pattern-Recognition ReceptorsFernando Nogueira de Souza, Eduardo Milton Ramos Sanchez, Marcos Bryan Heinemann et al.Mastitis is the most costly disease for dairy farmers and industry, which are mainly caused by the entry of bacteria to the teat canal. Shortly after the entry of the invading bacteria, the innate immunity recognizes the invading pathogen through pattern recognition receptors and initiates the inflammatory response necessary to eliminate the invading bacteria. This initial inflammatory response releases cytokines … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 18 Oct 2012 · 10,352 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOlfactory Responses of the Asiatic Citrus Psyllid (Diaphorina citri) to Mineral Oil-Treated Mandarin LeavesMofit Eko Poerwanto, Y. Andi Trisyono, G. Andrew C. Beattie et al.Problem statement: Evidence of rejection or acceptance by phytophagous pests of citrus plants treated with mineral oils suggests that impacts of oils may be related to detection by olfactory and/or contact chemoreceptors of repellent oils or plant volatiles. Alternatively, the oils may mask or suppress attractant host plant volatiles. To date, no studies have reported that oils elicit an olfactory … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 30 Jan 2012 · 8,782 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSuppression of Salicylic Acid-Mediated Plant Defense Responses During Initial Infection of Dyer's Woad by Puccinia thlaspeosBradley R. Kropp, Elizabeth ThomasProblem statement: Puccinia thlaspeos is a microcyclic rust pathogen that is being investigated as a potential biocontrol agent of the noxious weed, dyer’s woad (Isatis tinctoria). Although, the initial events in the colonization of dyer’s woad by the rust pathogen has been elucidated using scanning electron microscopy and PCR, little is known regarding the susceptibility response of this plant to … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 4 Aug 2011 · 8,033 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractZinc Deficiency and Associated T-Cell Dysfunctioning among Human Immunodeficiency Virus SeropositivesM. Andrew Pradeep, M. Thiruvalluvan, V. Nalini, J. Stella MaryProblem statement: All the nutrients in the diet play a crucial role in maintaining an optimal immune response. In both, deficient and excessive intake of nutrients can have negative consequence on the immune status and susceptibility to a variety of pathogens. Zinc is an essential micronutrient for human growth development and immune function. It plays a vital role in structure … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 31 Oct 2010 · 8,037 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractField Assessment of Anthracnose Disease Response for the Sorghum Germplasm Collection from the Mopti RegionJ. E. ErpeldingProblem statement: Sorghum anthracnose (Colletotrichum sublineolum) is a highly variable pathogen and new sources of host plant resistance are required for the development of resistant sorghum varieties. Germplasm collections are an important source of host plant resistance and screening germplasm will be essential to identify new sources of resistance. Approach: The sorghum (Sorghum bicolor) collection from the Mopti region of … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 8,213 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Fault Tolerant Mobile Agent Information Retrieval SystemR. Punithavathi, K. DuraiswamyProblem statement: Most of the information retrieval systems used only client-server architectures. The client-server model though powerful, had some limitations. In mobile computing environment which has both wired network and wireless networks with limited communication capabilities, the performance of the system was very low. Approach: Mobile agents are considered a suitable technology to develop applications such as information retrieval system … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 5 · 31 May 2010 · 7,203 accessesView PDFCite
