Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleZinc Deficiency and Associated T-Cell Dysfunctioning among Human Immunodeficiency Virus SeropositivesM. Andrew Pradeep, M. Thiruvalluvan, V. Nalini, J. Stella MaryProblem statement: All the nutrients in the diet play a crucial role in maintaining an optimal immune response. In both, deficient and excessive intake of nutrients can have negative consequence on the immune status and susceptibility to a variety of pathogens. Zinc is an essential micronutrient for human growth development and immune function. It plays a vital role in structure … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 31 Oct 2010 · 8,037 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleMicrobial Translocation and B Cell Dysfunction in Human Immunodeficiency Virus DiseaseWei JiangThe gut mucosal barrier disrupted in HIV disease, resulting in increased systemic exposure to microbial products such as Lipo Polys Accharide (LPS). The association of enhanced microbial translocation and B cell dysfunction in HIV disease is not fully understood. High dose and short term exposure of microbial Toll-Like Receptor (TLR) agonists were used as vaccine adjuvants, however, low dose and … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2012 · 7,409 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsCo-Inhibitory Molecule Programmed Death-1 and its Ligands: A New Alternative Therapy for Human Immunodeficiency Virus Infection?A. Leon-Flores, P. Del Rio, G. Reyes-TeranChronic viral infections are characterized by the up-regulation of a set of immunomodulatory receptors. The over-expression of co-inhibitory molecules on T cells leads to a dysfunctional T cell response with an "exhausted" phenotype. Programmed Death-1 (PD-1) is a molecule that exerts an inhibitory signal on the T cell receptor when it binds to the PD-L1 or PD-L2 ligands present on … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 28 Dec 2012 · 6,962 accessesView PDFCite

Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCardiolipin in Pathology: Implications in AtherosclerosisAnastasia Vladimirovna Poznyak, Vasily Nikolaevich Sukhorukov, Anton Yuvenalievich Postnov et al.Mitochondria are cell organelles whose main role is to generate the energy needed for cell biochemical reactions via oxidative phosphorylation. Cardiolipin is a phospholipid that is present in the inner mitochondrial membrane and other energy-transducing membranes. Mitochondrial structure largely depends on cardiolipin, as it is involved in the biogenesis of mitochondrial cristae, folds in the inner mitochondrial membrane designed to … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 23, Issue 4 · 23 Sep 2023 · 4,792 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. Here, we report on the status of eNOS function in Human Umbilical Vein Endothelial Cells (HUVECs) cultured under normo- and hyperglycemic (250 mg/dL) condition followed by exposure to increasing … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 2 May 2019 · 8,356 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractIs Rerum® the New Coley's Vaccine?Marco RuggieroColey's Vaccine and Cancer Immunotherapy Dr. William B. Coley is credited for having been the first to translate the observation of an association between bacterial infections, high fever and cancer remission into a successful cancer treatment. However, it is worth noting that such an association dates back to at least one century before Coley's times; as Wiemann and Starnes from … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 13, Issue 2 · 31 May 2017 · 12,281 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractNeutrophil Extracellular Traps as Therapeutic Targets for Inflammatory DiseaseRory R. KoenenNeutrophilic granulocytes, or neutrophils are the most abundant circulating white blood cell and constitute a first line of defense against pathogens. They are characterized by a large polymorphic lobular nucleus and the presence of many secretory granules in their cytoplasm. Neutrophils are essential for a functional host defense, as is evidenced by the occurrence of severe infections in individuals with … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 25 Feb 2015 · 8,737 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractGLUTATHIONE: A POSSIBLE LINK TO AUTOPHAGY IN SYSTEMIC LUPUS ERYTHEMATOSUSDilip Shah, Swapan K. NathIncreased free radical formation and altered redox state are of fundamental importance in the pathogenesis of autoimmune diseases including Systemic Lupus Erythematos (SLE). Free radicals are mainly derived from oxygen (Reactive Oxygen Species/ROS) and nitrogen (Reactive Nitrogen Species/RNS) at mitochondria, cellular membranes and the endoplasmic reticulum membrane as physiological responses to a variety of internal and external stress (Shah et … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 10, Issue 3 · 3 Sep 2014 · 12,773 accessesView PDFCite
