Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsRole of Galphaq Containing Protein in Immune RegulationYuan Liu, Lu Gan, Guixiu ShiG proteins, one of the most important transmembrane signal transducers, contain four subfamilies. Gαq is the α subunit of Gq protein subfamily. The Gαq containing protein initially attracted attention for its physiological significance is in cardiovascular system. In recent years, its role in immune regulation has been indicated. Studies domenstrated that Gαq plays crucial role in regulating both innate and … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 18 Oct 2012 · 7,417 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsMolecular Mechanisms of Neurodegenerative Diseases Induced by Human Retroviruses: A ReviewBryan P. Irish, Zafar K. Khan, Pooja Jain et al.Problem statement: Infection with retroviruses such as human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) and human T cell leukemia virus type 1 (HTLV-1) have been shown to lead to neurodegenerative diseases such as HIV-associated dementia (HAD) or neuroAIDS and HTLV-1-Associated Myelopathy/Tropical Spastic Paraparesis (HAM/TSP), respectively. Approach: HIV-1-induced neurologic disease is associated with an influx of HIV-infected monocytic cells across the blood-brain … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2009 · 14,888 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsTarget Identification in Ory S1 Pollen Protein Allergen from Oryza sativa in the Course of Construction of Hypoallergenic VaccinesRuchi Sharma, A. K. SinghProblem statement: Recombinant-based approaches are mostly focused on genetic modification of allergens to produce molecules with reduced allergenic activity and conserved antigenicity, such as hypoallergens. Recombinant allergens represent promising tools for diagnosis and therapy of type I allergy. This approach was probably feasible with every allergen with known amino acid sequence. Approach: The primary aim of this study was to … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,438 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsChronic and Acute Effect of Tramadol Intoxication on Some Immunological ParametersLoveday Udu Zebedee, Zaccheus Awortu Jeremiah, Nyebuchi Jonathan, Eni-Yimini Solomon AgoroTramadol intoxication is rapidly on the increase in Nigeria with unestablished short-term and long-term effects. The study was aimed at elucidating the dose-dependent effect of acute or chronic tramadol intoxication on some immunological parameters using male rats (Rattus norvegicus). A total of fifty adult rats were used for the study as indicated by Mead's Resource Equation. The study consisted of … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 17, Issue 1 · 24 Apr 2021 · 8,025 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsSensitive and Rapid Detection of Sulfate-Reducing Bacteria in Jet Fuel by Loop-Mediated Isothermal Amplification Combined with Lateral Flow DipstickZezhen Li, Yun Xiong, Peng Zhu, Hailong HuangThe existence of Sulfate-Reducing Bacteria (SRB) is one of the significant reasons for the Microbially Influenced Corrosion (MIC) of jet fuel. Especially for the jet fuel stored by military, since jet fuel is stored in the tank for a long time, some oxygen-consuming bacteria such as Amorphotheca resinae and Bacillus Cohn can consume oxygen and generate organic acids at the … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 14, Issue 2 · 11 Apr 2018 · 10,395 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsConservation of Binding of Llama and Other Animals’ Hemoglobins to Haptoglobins Across SpeciesMoges Woldemeskel, Oluseyi A. VanderpuyeThe plasma protein haptoglobin binds hemoglobin released from lysed erythrocytes. It causes removal of the free hemoglobin, thus preventing pathological oxidation of cells. Hemoglobin higher level structures are well conserved across animal species but primary structures can be as little as 50% homologous. Because of these differences, the question arose as to what extent hemoglobins can bind to haptoglobins from … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 26 Jan 2018 · 9,200 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsCONTRIBUTION TO THE GENETIC DETERMINISM OF THE SHEEP’S MILK QUALITY. RACE INFLUENCE (HAMRA AND OULED DJELLAL) ON PHYSICO-CHEMICAL PARAMETERS AND PROTEIN PROFILEA. Ameur Ameur, F. Chougrani, A. Cheriguene et al.In order to study the race effect on the physico-chemical characteristics and protein profile, two sheep or ovine breeds Hamra and Ouled Djellal were raised in the same condition sat the ITELV (National institute of breeding) (Ain Hajar-Saida, Algeria). The analyses were focused on the pH, density, freezing, fat, total protein, dry defatted extract and total dry extract. The results … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 2 · 18 Jun 2014 · 6,977 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsNitrification of Urea and Assimilation of Nitrate in Saturated Soils Under Aerobic ConditionsV. V. Ramakrishnan, A. E. GhalyThe aim of this study was to investigate nitrification activity of urea and the assimilation of nitrate in a well aerated soil using perfusion technique with addition of glucose as an energy and carbon source. In this study, urea was rapidly nitrified by the bacteria in the saturated soil but its course of transformation to NO3 was not linear. There … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 6 Nov 2013 · 8,415 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsTRANSCRIPTION ACTIVATOR-LIKE EFFECTOR NUCLEASES-AMAZING TOOL FOR GENOME EDITINGAvantika Singh, Vivek Pratap SinghTranscription Activator-Like Effector Nucleases (TALENs) are used to cut specific target DNA sequence in order to knock out a gene or to change its sequence. They are formed by the fusion of TALE protein serving as DNA binding domain along with non-specific DNA cleaving nucleases. Its specificity towards DNA bases in the target sequence is derived from the structure of … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 3 · 4 Sep 2013 · 7,997 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsConcentration and Physicochemical Properties of Chitosan Derivatives Determine the Induction of Defense Responses in Roots and Leaves of Tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) PlantsAlejandro B. Falcón-Rodríguez, Juan C. Cabrera, Eduardo Ortega, Miguel Ángel Martínez-TéllezProblem statement: The chitosan derivatives promote diverse defensive responses in plants, which are affected by chitosan chemical features and concentration. Glucanase (EC 3.2.1.6), Phenylalanine Ammonia-Lyase (PAL, EC 4.3.1.5) and peroxidase (POD, EC 1.11.1.6) are key enzymes in tobacco defense responses. Thus, the aim of this study was to know the behavior of their enzymatic activity in leaves and roots of … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2009 · 9,263 accessesView PDFCite
