Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDNA Vaccination Associated with Eliminating Inheritance Risks during Embryo Development: A ReviewRia MargianaThe process of immunization using modified DNA is essential whenever scientists desire to trigger an artificial response in the host’s body to improve immunity. The use of DNA vaccines awakens the somatic cells of the host to produce antigens that will assist the body to prepare to fight infections through preventive measures triggered by the vaccines. These biological inventions have … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 2 · 26 May 2016 · 6,873 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTHE IMMUNOMODULATORY EFFECTS OF PROBIOTIC BACTERIA ON PERIPHERAL BLOOD MONONUCLEAR CELLS (PBMCS) OF ALLERGIC PATIENTSSomaya M. El Sheikh, Mona A.M. Shalaby, Raghda A. Hafez et al.Allergic diseases represent major health burden. An allergic reaction is characterized by a disrupted T- helper 1⁄T-helper 2 balance toward a preferential allergen specifically induced TH2 cytokine profile, causing allergic inflammation Probiotic bacteria have various benificial effects in many pathologic situation. Studies have shown that the bacteria present in the intestinal micro flora play a role in the TH1/TH2 balance … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 10, Issue 3 · 10 Sep 2014 · 8,273 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPlacebo-Driven Clinical Trials of Transfer Point Glucan #300 in Children with Chronic Respiratory Problems: III. Clinical FindingsVetvicka Vaclav, Richter Josef, Svozil Vladimir et al.The role of glucan in stimulation of immune reactions has been studied for decades. In this report we focused on the effects of orally administered glucan in children with chronic respiratory problems. We measured the physical endurance using a 6MWT test and the levels of eNO in 50 children aged 8-12 years and evaluated the effects of 100 mg/d oral … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 20 Aug 2013 · 9,028 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSoluble CD14, Sialic Acid and L-Fucose in Breast Milk and their Role in Increasing the Immunity of Breast-Fed InfantsGhalib Ali Oriquat, Tahia H. Saleem, Samir T. Abdullah et al.Problem statement: Breast milk contain protective factors as soluble CD14, L-Fucose and Sialic acid which increase the innate immunity and level of intelligence, decrease the incidence of gastroenteritis, chest and other systemic diseases in newly born infants. In the present study the role of soluble CD14, L-Fucose and Sialic acid, in increasing the immunity in breastfed infants were studied to … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 27 Apr 2011 · 10,188 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFormulation and Evaluation of a Novel Needle-Free Hepatitis B Surface Antigen Delivery SystemC. D. Licy, K. Premalatha, Annie Shirwaikar, Arun ShirwaikarProblem statement: Hepatitis B is a major public health problem, killing 1-2 million people annually, despite the introduction of an effective vaccine in 1982. Approximately 400 million persons worldwide have chronic hepatitis B. This is due to problems associated with vaccine delivery, stability and cost. Hence the present challenge in Vaccinology is to develop safer, cheaper and easy-to-deliver forms of … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Oct 2010 · 6,819 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInduction of the Chemokines CCL3α, CCL3α and CCL5 in Atherosclerotic PatientsAlyaa Mousa, Amani Al-Zaki, Safa Taha, Moiz BakhietChemokines recruit immune cells to inflammatory sites and promote the process of inflammation. The role of these mediators in the disease process in atherosclerosis is not fully studied. The spontaneous mRNA expression and intracellular protein production of the potential inflammatory chemokines CCL3α and CCL3β (macrophage- inflammatory protein-1α and β; CCR3α/β ligand) and CCL5 (regulated upon activation, normal T cell expressed … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 31 Dec 2007 · 6,952 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of Acute-phase Reactants, Immunologic Markers and other Clinical and Laboratory Parameters in Patients with Pneumonia and Non-pneumonic Lower Respiratory Tract InfectionsJulio Collazos, María del Mar Martínez, Fernando IzquierdoMore efficacious tools to distinguish pneumonia from other acute lower respiratory tract infections (OALRTI) in facilities where radiologic studies are not easily or rapidly available are desirable to select the patients who should undergo chest radiographs, to avoid unnecessary visits to the emergency wards of hospitals and to optimize health resources. To this end we analyzed the relevance of many … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2007 · 7,083 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGene Expression Profiling of Toll-Like Receptor 4 and 5 in Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells of Patients with Systemic SclerosisSimin Almasi, Saeed Aslani, Hadi Poormoghim et al.The Toll-Like Receptor (TLR) family is appeared to be expressed in many cell types in the immune system and plays a role in the pathogenesis of various autoimmune diseases. The expression profile and role of TLRs in Systemic Sclerosis (SSc) have been partly explained.
