Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEvaluation of the Immunomodulatory Properties of a Calf Lipid Thymus Extract and Standardization of a Method for Quantification of its Biological ActivityMiodrag Colic, Radmila Popovic, Dusanka Mrdakovic et al.The aim of this study was to test the immunobiological properties of a new formulation of the lipid thymus calf extract (Thymsol), prepared for in vitro cell culture experiments. At first, we showed that Thymsol enhanced the antigen specific immune response in AO rats in vitro, using Keyhole limpet hemocyanin (KLH). At lower concentrations (0.5-2.5 μg mL-1) the extract increased … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 31 Dec 2007 · 7,039 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
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsThe immunological aspects of Acanthamoeba infectionsNaveed A. KhanAcanthamoeba is a protozoan pathogen that is responsible for two recognized diseases; i) a blinding keratitis, most commonly associated with contact lens wear, and ii) a rare but fatal granulomatous encephalitis that usually is limited to immunocompromised patients. The fact that Acanthamoeba infections are generally limited to avascular cornea or immunocompromised patients suggests that the normal immune responses may be … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2005 · 7,325 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsDetermination of the Probiotic Potential and Metabolic Function of Lactobacillus Strains for Healthy Calf RearingRaya Myktybayeva, Serkan Özkaya, Elif Rabia Şanlı et al.This research investigstes the impact of probiotic supplementation on the growth performance, health status, and physiological traits in Holstein calves. A total of thirty calves were randomly divided into three experimental groups: a control group and two treatment groups receiving probiotics at doses of 1 g/10 kg and 1.5gt/10 kg live weight. Key indicators, including Live Weight (LW), Body Measurements … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 3 · 23 Jul 2025 · 3,626 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsTailoring the Ruggiero-Klinghardt Protocol to Immunotherapy of AutismNicola Antonucci, Dietrich Klinghardt, Stefania Pacini, Marco RuggieroHere, we describe the adaptation to the field of autism of an original procedure denominated the "Ruggiero-Klinghardt Protocol" (RK Protocol), a procedure that represents a paradigm change with significant implications for chronic conditions where immunotherapy may prove effective; that is from silent infections to neurodegenerative diseases, autism and cancer. In the context of autism, the modified RK Protocol that we … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 25 Apr 2019 · 11,204 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsPro-Inflammatory Cytokine (IL-1β and IL-6) Response in Goats Challenged with Corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis and its Immunogen Mycolic AcidsFaez Firdaus Jesse Abdullah, Odhah Mohd Naji, Mohd Azmi Mohd Lila et al.The causative agent of Caseous Lymphadenitis (CLA) is Corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis. A chronic disease of sheep and goats which is mainly characterized by suppurative abscesses in both superficial and visceral lymph nodes. There is paucity of information on the proinflammatory cytokine (IL-1β and IL-6) responses due to C. pseudotuberculosis and Mycolic Acid (MAs) inoculation in goats. Therefore, this study was conducted … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 16 Feb 2017 · 7,790 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsImmunity to Pneumococcal Vaccine in Splenectomized β-Thalassemia PatientsAbdolreza Sotoodeh Jahromi, Mohammad Reza Farjam, Alireza Makarem et al.Problem statement: Splenectomy is accompanied by a lifelong risk of overwhelming post splenectomy infection, mainly caused by encapsulated bacteria such as Streptococcus pneumoniae. The mortality rate in those infected patients remains high. Therefore the pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine has been recommended. Approach: To obtain information on the immunity levels of pneumococcal antibody, in splenectomized β-thalassemia patients in south of Iran. Patients … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 25 May 2012 · 7,403 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsAntibiotic Susceptibility and Immunomodulatory Potential of Chosen Bacterial PathogensM. Sujatha, P. Dhasarathan, B. KarthickProblem statement: Antibiotic susceptibility is still the best way for bacterial pathogen escape mechanism against immunity. Approach: In the present investigation, bacterial pathogens like Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Aeromonas hydrophila, Klebsiella and Pseudomonas aeruginosa were used to screen antibiotic susceptibility and immunomodulatory potential. Results: All the test pathogens were sensitive to all the test antibiotics 11±2 mm) except penicillin.

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsThe Role of Treg Cells in the Cancer Immunological ResponseZhi-Zhang Yang, Stephen M. AnsellProblem statement: T cell-mediated immunosuppression has been observed for decades without clarification as to which factor was responsible for this observation. The identification of CD4+CD25+ regulatory T (Treg) cells represents a milestone in the filed of immunology and provides an explanation for T-cell-mediated immunosuppression. Although Treg cells were originally identified for their ability to prevent organ-specific autoimmune disease in mice, … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 8,518 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsImmunodiagnosis in Jembrana Disease: A ReviewAsmarani Kusumawati, Tenri Ashari Wanahari, Widya Asmara et al.Jembrana disease is a bovine disease that affects Bali cattle (Bos javanicus). The causal agent is named Jembrana Disease Virus (JDV), a lentivirus member. The disease development of Jembrana disease in Bali cattle is unique for a lentivirus infection as it is related with severe clinical syndrome in an acute period.
