Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEpidemiology of Human Herpesvirus Type 8 Infection in Cardiopathic PatientsAngela Ingianni, Maria A. Madeddu, Francesca Carta et al.Problem statement: The possible contribution of viruses to vascular pathology is still a controversial issue. Human herpesvirus type 8 (HHV-8) has been suggested to participate to the pathogenetic events associated with atherosclerotic lesion establishment and progression. Recently, a high incidence of infection of HHV-8 (11%) has been verified in the island of Sardinia. The aim of this study was to … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,334 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTransgenic Indian Cotton (Gossypium hirsutum) Harboring Rice Chitinase Gene (Chi II) Confers Resistance to Two Fungal PathogensM. Ganesan, P. Bhanumathi, K. Ganesh Kumari et al.Problem statement: The present investigation described a simple and reproducible protocol for transgenic cotton regeneration and characterization of chitinase (Chi II) gene expression against two different fungal pathogens in cotton. Approach: Transgenic cotton (Gossypium hirsutum cv. SVPR2) plants were produced by pCambia-bar-Chi II (13.8 kb) under the control of the CaMV 35S promoter, harbored in the strain LBA 4404 Agrobacterium … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 8,531 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImmunodeficient Parameters in the HIV-1 Transgenic Rat ModelSulie L. Chang, Frank Ocasio, Jose A. BeltranRecently an HIV-1 transgenic (HIV-1Tg) rat model was created that carries a gag-pol-deleted HIV-1 genome under the control of the HIV-1 viral promoter. However, other viral proteins are expressed in most organs and tissues, and are found in the circulating blood. Since HIV-1 targets the immune system in humans, we examined two immunological parameters, leukocyte-endothelial adhesion (LEA) and inflammatory cytokine … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 7,834 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Proteolytic System of Candida dubliniensisLoaiza-Loeza Salomé, Parra-Ortega Berenice, Bautista-Muñoz Consuelo et al.Proteases of Candida dubliniensis have been scarcely studied, these enzymes may play an important role in nitrogen metabolism, post-translational processing, nutritional stress, dimorphism, virulence, etc. In this work, we report the presence of five different intracellular proteases and one extracellular proteolytic activity. The intracellular proteases are: aminopeptidase ycdAPE, carboxypeptidase ycdCP, dipeptidyl aminopeptidase ycdDAP, proteinases ycdPrA and ycdPrB, and extracellular protease … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 6,953 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAgrobacterium-mediated Genetic Transformation in Cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.)A. Vasudevan, N. Selvaraj, A. Ganapathi, C.W. ChoiThe present study was undertaken to develop efficient transformation protocol for cucumber cv. Poinsett 76 using Agrobacterium strain EHA 105. Five-day-old mature cotyledon explants was used for transformation study. The infected explants were co-cultivated for 2 days in MS medium containing BA (1.0 mg Lˉ1). The selection of transformed shoots was carried out in MS medium fortified with BA (1.0 … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2007 · 8,901 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Postgenomic Era: Transcriptomic as the New Paradigm of LifeBruno Giardina, Marcella Renis, Vito Latora, Salvatore MusumeciNow that complete genome sequences are available for a variety of organism, the elucidation of single gene function involved in the metabolism, includes necessarily a better understanding of the cellular responses on all levels of gene products, mRNA, proteins and metabolites. Such knowledge’s growth is essential since the observable properties of living organisms, so called phenotypes, are the results of … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 30 Jun 2006 · 6,822 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Feasibility Study of Challenges and Opportunities in Computational Biology: A Malaysian PerspectiveR. J.A. Richard, N. SriraamThe term computational biology refers to the knowledge derived from a computer analysis of biological data that includes identification of genes in DNA sequence of different organisms, prediction of structural and functional mechanism of proteins, feature extraction and classification of genomics and proteomics. Computational biology is a rapidly developing branch of science and is highly interdisciplinary, using techniques and Concepts … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2005 · 6,924 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInduction of Caspase-dependant Apoptosis by Enterovirus 70 in Human Lens Epithelial SRA01/04 CellsDequan Chen, Chris Duggan, Donald E. Texada et al.Enterovirus 70 (EV70), an etiological agent of acute hemorrhagic conjunctivitis (AHC), induces apoptosis in human Chang’s conjunctival (HCC) cells. EV70 is also able to infect and replicate in some other human cells such as human lens epithelial SRA01/04 cells and U937 cells. EV70 infection was found to induce apoptosis in SRA01/04 cells. During EV70-induced apoptosis of SRA01/04 cells, the expression … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 6,636 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvidences of Apoptosis in Hepatitis C Virus-Infected Hepatocytes and Peripheral Blood Monocuclear Cells in the Absence of Liver InjuryViviana Falcón, Nelson Acosta-Rivero, Mineko Shibayama et al.Understanding the mechanism of Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) pathogenesis is an important part of HCV research. In this study, the presence of apoptosis in HCV-infected liver and Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells (PBMC) from patients positive for anti-HCV antibodies and negative for serum HCV-RNA was investigated. The samples obtained from 21 patients were studied by in situ Hybridization (ISH), Immunofluorescence, TUNEL … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2005 · 6,975 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvidences of Hepatitis C Virus Replication in Hepatocytes and Peripheral Blood Monocuclear Cells from Patients Negative for Viral RNA in SerumViviana Falcón, Nelson Acosta-Rivero, Mineko Shibayama et al.In this study, we examined the expression of hepatitis C virus (HCV) components in hepatocytes and peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) from patients positive for anti-HCV antibodies and negative for serum HCV-RNA. The samples obtained from 25 randomly selected patients (13 of 25 patients showed no histological evidences of chronic hepatitis and had normal serum ALAT and GGTP levels) were … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2005 · 7,164 accessesView PDFCite
