Review ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleHost Receptor Immunomodulation in Response to Shigella Surface Antigens: An Insight for Vaccine DevelopmentAshim K. Bagchi, Rushita A. Bagchi, Dipak K. Hens et al.Shigellosis, caused by Shigella is the most common cause of bacillary dysentery. The disease is associated with high morbidity and mortality rate owing to its multiple drug resistance. Hence recovery from the disease would primarily depend on the development of an effective immune-modulator for strong mucosal immune response. The role of cellular immunity may be a critical factor in protection … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 21 Jun 2015 · 6,752 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleHumoral Immune Responses to Various Antigens in the Asterids: A. gibbosa and A. rubensMichel LeclercImmunizations with various antigens of the sea stars Asterina gibbosa and Asterias rubens produce specific humoral immune reactions which initiate the antibody factor. This antibody factor is correlated with kappa genes and could be composed of 4 kappa chains. It is the first time that such phenomenom was described in an invertebrate. …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 15 Feb 2013 · 7,306 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAssessment of Immunogenicity of CP8, CLFA-FnBPB and CP8-CLFA-FnBPB AntigensXiuli Liu, Yongqing Hao, Shuyi Wang et al.To assess the effects of conjugating Capsular Polysaccharide (CP) with Clumping factor A (ClfA) and Fibronectin-Binding Proteins B (FnBPB) on the immunogenicity of the antigen, CP was isolated and purified from serotype 8 (CP8) Staphylococcus aureus from bovine mastitis dairy herds in Inner Mongolia and ClfA-FnBPB was produced with Escherichia coli encoding a fusion protein ClfA-FnBPB gene. The CP8-ClfA-FnBPB complete … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 30 Aug 2013 · 7,545 accessesView PDFCite
Literature ReviewOpen accessIn the keywordsFundamental Questions about γδT CellsMoulay Yassine Belghali, Saadia Ba-M’hamed, Mouna Khouchani, Brahim AdmouγδT cells is a minor subgroup of T lymphocytes expressing γδ-T Cell Receptor (TCR), with many subsets, dominated by Vδ2 and Vδ1. γδT cells recognize antigens independently of the context of MHC class I, MHC class II, or CD1 presenting molecules. However, this recognition requires the expression of the transmembrane Butyrophilin proteins by the presenting cells. Their activation is controlled … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 20, Issue 4 · 15 Dec 2020 · 6,382 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsELISA-Based Development of Functional Antibodies for the Efficient Detection of Mycotoxigenic Fusarium (F. oxysporum and F. circinatum) and Diplodia (D. pinea) SpeciesPhumzile Mkhize, Phetole MangenaFusarium contains the most toxigenic and important fungal pathogens, producing a wide range of mycotoxins that include the more toxic secondary metabolites called fumonisins. This study analyzed the presence of common exo- and mycelium-soluble antigens, purified proteins using reducing SDS-PAGE and the expression of antibodies against different fungal pathogens. The results showed the presence of common antigens between pathogens and … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 16, Issue 4 · 18 Nov 2020 · 6,601 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsThe Tumor/Immune Interface: Clinical Evidence of Cancer Immunosurveillance, Immunoediting and ImmunosubversionMatthew S. Block, Svetomir N. MarkovicProblem statement: The interactions of a malignant tumor with the patient’s immune system are dynamic, multiple and bi-directional. Approach: This article reviews the clinical evidence of the interaction of cancer with immunity with emphasis on recent developments highlighting some of the mechanisms of tumor-mediated regulation of immunity. Results: Most of the time, the immune response to a malignancy acts to … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 10,095 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsHumoral Immune Response in Tuberculous PleuritisPrabha C., Kripa V. Jalapathy, Sulochana D. DasTuberculous pleuritis is a good human model to understand the local and protective immune response against tuberculosis, due to the self-limitedness of the disease. Although the cellular immune response has been well characterised in tuberculous pleurisy, much less is known about the humoral immune response operating at the site of infection. To understand the humoral immune response, B cells were … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 6,518 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsCorrelation of Some Tumor Markers Between Serum and Saliva of Patients with Breast CancerHuthaifa Tarawneh, Omar AtroozBreast cancer, which affects 36% of all female oncological patients, is the most frequent cancer in the world among women. Since routine laboratory evaluation of serum can be stressful for patients, it is critical to comprehend the features and limitations of salivary test methods in order to achieve an accurate diagnosis of breast cancer. The purpose of the study is … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 1 · 12 Oct 2024 · 4,901 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsHIV-1-Specific CTL Recognizing a Scarce Epitope Are Not Suppressed by HIV-1 Protease InhibitorsOtto O. YangHIV-1-protease inhibitors have received growing attention as agents that can affect proteases in human proteasomes, with potentially deleterious effects for HIV-1-specific cellular immunity. Studying the antiviral activity of HIV-1-specific CTL that recognize an epitope that is presented at limiting concentrations on infected cells, we find that several HIV-1 protease inhibitors do not affect their function. These data indicate that these … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 30 Jun 2007 · 7,016 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMolecular Characterization and in Silico Analysis of Phytochemical Compounds from Plants with Immunomodulatory PotentialHermin Pancasakti Kusumaningrum, Rejeki Siti Ferniah, Siti Nur Jannah et al.The immune system works to protect the body against foreign antigens from microorganisms and abnormal cells. The use of herbal plants as immunomodulators are used to prevent disease attacks. TNFα and interleukin-6 are pro-inflammatory immune systems that cause disease in uncontrolled synthesis. Herbal plants as inhibitors of TNFα and interleukin-6 need to be identified molecularly to reduce the occurrence of … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 3 · 27 Nov 2025 · 1,954 accessesView PDFCite
