Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExploring the Role of Immune Complexes in Essential HypertensionIvan MilosevicEssential hypertension is a rise of arterial blood pressure whose etiology is unknown. Immune complexes are complexes created by the binding of an antibody to the antigen. They are also called circulating immune complexes because of its precipitation in peripheral blood vessels, commonly on the places of their bifurcation and the places of higher blood pressure (glomerules of kidney or … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 18, Issue 1 · 2 Nov 2022 · 9,979 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractWhy Continue Studying HRP2 and HRP3 in Malaria?María Luz Gunturiz, Pablo Enrique Chaparro, Gabriel Carrasquilla, Mónica Marcela JiménezThe main malaria control strategy is rapid and accurate diagnosis followed by effective treatment. The quality of the diagnosis is relevant, since an erroneous diagnosis can generate an increase in morbidity and mortality significantly. The World Health Organization (WHO) has recommended that all patients with suspected malaria be diagnosed by microscopy or a Rapid Diagnostic Test (RDT) before treatment. Microscopy … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 16, Issue 3 · 24 Aug 2020 · 6,901 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Relevance of Bioinformatic Tools in the Study of Polymorphisms of the B4GALNT2 Gene and its Association with CancerEddaikra Atika, Haddouche Hayet, Touil-Boukoffa ChafiaThe human gene B4GALNT2 encodes an enzyme (β1,4-N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase II) that controls the expression of the blood group Sda carbohydrate’s antigen. This gene is located in position 17q21,32 and consists of 11 exons. The characterization and understanding of genetic variation is a real challenge in human genetics, both for healthy individuals and diseased ones. The in silico study of the B4GALNT2 … …Current Research in Bioinformatics, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 27 Feb 2020 · 6,773 accessesView PDFCite
Case ReportOpen accessIn the abstractEpistein-Barr Virus Infection with Concurrent Pancreatitis and Hepatitis: A Rare Disease EntityJered Cook, Megha Kothari, Andrew NguyenConcurrent acute hepatitis and acute pancreatitis is a rare disease entity. Most commonly it can be attributed to infectious etiologies such as hepatitis A, Hepatitis B and Hepatitis E. Although not as common, Epstein Barr Virus (EBV) should be considered in the differential diagnosis in patients with combined hepatitis and pancreatitis. We report a case of a 25 year-old male … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 18 Sep 2015 · 7,839 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRelationship Between Antibodies to Toxocara and the Disability of the Human Ankylosing SpondylitisFrancisco-Javier Jiménez-Balderas, Patricia Méndez-Samperio, Raquel Tapia-Romero, Jorge-Luis de-la-Rosa-AranaThere are only few studies reported in the literature of patients with spondyloarthropathies associated with Toxocara infection. Thus, the aim of this work was to investigate the relationship between antibodies to Toxocara and the disability of the human Ankylosing Spondylitis (AS). Thirty-six AS patients (14 female and 22 male) participated during the study period and all were residents from Mexico … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 29 May 2015 · 6,891 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDUAL ROLES OF CANCER CELL-EXPRESSED IMMUNOGLOBULINS IN CANCER IMMUNOLOGYGregory Lee, Cheng-Yuan Huang, Suefay Liu et al.While the expression of immunoglobulins and T cell receptors on cancer cells has been well-established for decades, the potential roles and mechanisms of action of these cancerous antigen receptors have not been fully elucidated. A monoclonal antibody designated as RP215, which reacts specifically with the carbohydrate-associated epitope located on the heavy chain region of cancerous immunoglobulins and T cell receptors, … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 10, Issue 3 · 2 Oct 2014 · 7,870 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPRODUCTION AND CHARACTERIZATION OF MONOCLONAL AND POLYCLONAL ANTIBODY AGAINST RECOMBINANT OUTER MEMBRANE PROTEINMahdi Fasihi-Ramandi, Amir Nedjad-Moghaddam, Fatemeh Arabsalmany et al.There are many studies related to immunological and molecular methods for diagnosis of Vibrio cholera (V. cholerae). However, most assays dependent on enrichment of culture of bacteria, which need more time and involves the use of costly equipment and reagents. In this study Balb/c mice were immunized with recombinant Outer Membrane Protein (rOMPw) of vibrio cholerae and splenocytes of hyper … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 26 Apr 2014 · 7,444 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPRODUCTION OF CROSS-REACTIVE AUTOANTIBODY BINDING TO BOVINE SERUM ALBUMIN IN THE D-GALACTOSE-INDUCED AGING MOUSE MODELJi-Hun Park, Tae-Saeng ChoiThe D-galactose (D-gal)-induced animal model, generated by repeated subcutaneous D-gal injections over approximately 6 weeks, has been frequently used for diabetes and aging research. However, little research has investigated the direct correlation between D-gal and autoantibody formation despite several reports on diabetes-and aging-related autoantibodies. The purpose of this study was to determine whether repetitive injection of D-gal can induce autoantibody … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 13 Jan 2014 · 7,040 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 · 6,783 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIgG Subclass Variation of a Monoclonal Antibody Binding to Human Fc-Gamma ReceptorsRekha Patel, Krista K. Johnson, Bruce A. Andrien, Paul P. TamburiniThe importance of human Fc receptors in immune regulation is well known. Their role is critical not only in the recruitment of cellular effector functions but also in regulating the balance in the periphery between autoimmunity and tolerance. Despite their central importance, there is a dearth of literature on controlled numeric comparisons in affinities of antibody subclasses for gamma receptors. … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 21 Sep 2013 · 8,070 accessesView PDFCite
