Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDengue during Pregnancy: A Study of Thirteen CasesChristiane Fernandes Alvarenga, Vânia Glória Silami, Patrícia Brasil et al.Problem statement: The principal aim was to evaluate the effects of dengue virus infection by dengue during pregnancy and analyze the histopathology of the placenta. Approach: A retrospective study was conducted with 13 pregnant women with dengue confirmed in the period from January-December 2002, during a widespread dengue type 3 epidemic in Rio de Janeiro. Maternal and newborn data were … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 8,993 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPerformance of Pre-Weaned Dairy Calves under Hot Arid Environment: Effects of Immunoglobulins and Age on Diseases and MortalityM. A. Razzaque, T. Al-Mutawa, S. Abbas, M. BedairProblem statement: A high mortality rate (crude mortality 43.6%) of pre-weaned dairy calves resulted in unavailability of replacement heifers in Kuwait. Dairy producers resorted to import pregnant heifers for herd replacement. This study was undertaken to investigate the effects of dam vaccination and age, serum Immunoglobulin (Ig) on disease syndromes and mortality in pre-weaned calves. Approach: Late pregnant Holstein Friesian … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2009 · 7,555 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGeneration of Anti-platelet Autoantibody During Dengue Virus InfectionKao-Jean Huang, Yee-Shin Lin, Hsiao-Sheng Liu et al.Dengue virus infection causes dengue fever, Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) and Dengue Shock Syndrome (DSS). Thrombocytopenia is common in dengue fever and is always found in DHF/DSS. The pathogenesis of thrombocytopenia is poorly understood. To further understand the relationship between anti-dengue virus antibody and anti-platelet antibody, we generated monoclonal anti-dengue virus antibodies from the dengue virus infected mice that developed … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 7,535 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnti-Platelet and Anti-Endothelial Cell Autoantibodies in Vietnamese Infants and Children with Dengue Hemorrhagic FeverNguyen Thanh Hung, Nguyen Trong Lan, Yee-Shin Lin et al.Dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) is a serious public health problem. Increased vascular permeability and thrombocytopenia are the hallmarks of DHF. The mechanisms involved in DHF/Dengue shock syndrome (DSS) pathogenesis is not fully understood. This study gives evidence of the presence of antibodies which cross-reacted with platelets, and endothelial cells in the sera of Vietnamese infants and children with DHF/DSS. The … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 7,369 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPerformance Analysis of Call Admission Control in WCDMA Systems with Mobility based Interference Margin ReservationS. Malarkkan, V. C. RavichandranThis study presents performance of call admission control and resource reservation schemes based on the mobility of the users in WCDMA cellular systems. In order to guarantee the handoff dropping probability, the mobility of the user is predicted based on a realistic mobility model. The mobility prediction scheme used in this study is used to estimate the set of candidate … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2006 · 6,384 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLarge Scale Production and Characterization of Anti-Human IgG Monoclonal Antibody in Peritoneum of Balb/c MICEB. Baradaran, J. Majidi, Z. M. Hassan, J. AbdolalizadehMonoclonal antibodies are key reagents that are used in biomedical researches, diagnosis of immunodeficiency diseases such as IgG subclasses deficiency and treatment of diseases like infections and cancers. For large scale production of monoclonal antibody, hybridoma cells that produce monoclonal antibody against human IgG were injected into the peritoneum of the Balb/c mice which have previously been primed with 0.5 … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2005 · 7,089 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractγ-Aninobutyric acid (GABA) suppresses antigen-specific immune responses in ovalbumin γ(OVA)-immunized BALB/c miceTohru Sakai, Hiroko Okada, Mitsuo Kise et al.γ-Aminobutruic acid (GABA) is known to be a ubiquitous inhibitory neurotransmitter in the central nervous system. Furthermore, recent studies have shown that GABA modulates cardiovascular and respiratory functions. In this study, we examined the effect of GABA on antigen (Ag)-specific immune responses and elucidated the mechanisms underlying those effects in ovalbumin (OVA)-immunized BALB/c mice. OVA-specific proliferative responses were decreased in … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 6,501 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
