Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNCCRP-1 Might Not be a Marker of so Called NCC Cells in Common Carp (Cyprinus carpio) LeukocytesMazal Shimon-Hophy, Avi Jacob, Ramy R. AvtalionThe purpose of this study was to verify whether NCCRP-1 is a marker of a unique type of cells in teleost, so-called NCC, or an ubiquitin, like in cytotoxic cells. Therefore, common carp peripheral blood leukocytes were isolated and tested for the binding of fluorescent NCCRP-1 antibody to stained MAIT, γδ T and T cells following stress treatments. The results … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 16, Issue 1 · 26 Mar 2020 · 7,755 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSelective Susceptibility of Human Bladder Transitional Cell Carcinoma T24 Cells towards NBD PeptideSankari Durairajan, Charles Emmanuel Jebaraj Walter, Kalaiselvi Periyandavan et al.Bladder cancer is a recurrent disease that often develops chemoresistance and is on the rise in developing countries. After diagnosis surgery followed by immunotherapy and/or chemo- radiation therapy are the available treatments. These treatments do not provide protection against disease progression or recurrence thus highlighting the need to identify and develop drugs that are capable of inhibiting bladder cancer. T24 … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 16, Issue 2 · 20 Apr 2020 · 7,787 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProgressive LDL Reduction to Very Low Levels Improves Dimeric Nitric Oxide Synthase, Nitric Oxide Bioavailability and Reduces Peroxynitrite in Endothelial Cells during HyperglycemiaR. Preston Mason, Hazem Dawoud, Samuel C.R. Sherratt et al.Circulating levels of glucose and LDL influence Endothelial Cell (EC) function in a highly interactive manner as evidenced by nitric oxide production and coupling of endothelial Nitric Oxide Synthase (eNOS) dimer.
