Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsSDS-PAGE Protein Pattern and Antigenicity Cross Reaction of Human SchistosomesNahed A.A. EL-Ossily, Doaa A. Yones, Mohamed El-Salahy M.M. Monib et al.Schistosomiasis is one of the most important neglected tropical diseases. Its control depends on treatment with the available drug praziquantel. No vaccine exists despite the intense search for molecular candidates and adjuvant formulations over the last three decades. The present study aimed to compare the antigenic protein structures of Schistosoma mansoni, S. haematobium, Fasciola. hepatica and Echinococus granulosus hydatid cyst … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 10 Feb 2016 · 7,354 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsAntigenic and Immunogenic Components of Haemonchus longistipes Identified by Western ImmunoblotingE. M. El Hassan, Sabry M. El-BahrThe present study aimed to examine the ways that the Haemonchus longistipes components interact with the host by investigating the components of the parasite which acted as antigens during infection and those who are capable of inducing immune response when administered as immunogens. Adult H. longistipes worms (300 females and 200 males) were obtained from the abomasums of naturally infected … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 20 Sep 2012 · 7,498 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 abstractDihydroartemisinin Attenuates HBV-Induced Proliferation and Migration in LO2 cells via EMT Pathway ModulationYingde Nong, Caifang Ma, Wei Huang et al.Dihydroartemisinin (DHA), a derivative of artemisinin, possesses well-documented anti-inflammatory properties. This study investigated the inhibitory effects of DHA on hepatitis B virus (HBV)-induced cellular alterations in LO2 cells and elucidated underlying molecular mechanisms. Serum interleukin-6 (IL-6) levels were measured in HBV patients and analyzed for correlations with HBsAg, anti-HBs, and HBeAg. In vitro, LO2 cells were infected with clinical HBV … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 21, Issue 3 · 8 Jan 2026 · 2,071 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Atorvastatin on Oxidized Low-Density Lipoprotein-induced Proliferation, Apoptosis, and Matrix Metalloproteinase-9 Expression in Human MacrophagesBensheng Liu, Huifan Li, Yan Wang, Li ZhangAtorvastatin (ATV), an HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor, is utilized in the treatment of atherosclerotic diseases. Mononuclear Macrophages (MMs) are critical immune cells involved in atherosclerosis progression, participating in processes such as foam cell formation, cytokine secretion, and the development of fibrous cap and lipid core. To further elucidate the mechanism by which ATV exerts its therapeutic effects on atherosclerosis through the … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 21, Issue 3 · 18 Nov 2025 · 2,133 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFerulic Acid in Chinese Herbal Medicine: Regulating Autophagy for Oxidative Damage ReductionZhiyuan Lv, Qiaozhen Zhao, Shanbin Chen et al.Ferulic Acid (FA) is the primary functional component in herbal plants and traditional fermented foods. To comprehend the mechanism of action of ferulic acid, in terms of its regulation of autophagy, antioxidants and the inhibition of inflammatory pathways, the study was conducted. Oxidatively damaged human-derived hepatocytes were treated with FA and the processing concentration of FA is from 50-800 μm. … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 20, Issue 2 · 1 Jun 2024 · 5,483 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractClinical Significance of Precise Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy Up-regulation RP11-356I2.2 Restraining the Occurrence and Development of Gastric CancerYu Yan, Feng Yanlin, Feng Jinxin et al.In order to study the therapeutic effect and possible mechanism of Precise Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy (HIPEC) on gastric cancer, the expression of RP11-356I2.2 in gastric cancer cell lines and tissues was detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR (RT-PCR). Chi-square test was used to analyze the correlation between the expression and clinic pathological parameters. Western blotting was used to detect the … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 16, Issue 2 · 4 Jun 2020 · 6,487 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSperm DNA Fragmentation and Apoptosis Levels: A Comparison of the Swim up and the Density Gradient Centrifugation Methods for Sperm PreparationSilvia W. Lestari, Triyana Sari, Dwi A. PujiantoThis study investigated the efficiency of two sperm preparation methods, namely, density gradient centrifugation and the swim-up method, in selecting spermatozoa based on the DNA fragmentation index and the apoptosis levels. Fifteen semen samples from infertile couples underwent sperm preparation in this study. The Makler® counting chamber and Eosin Y staining were used to analyse the sperm concentration, motility and … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 4 · 14 Nov 2016 · 7,419 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHistone Tail Modifications of H3 and H4 during the Physarum polycephalum Cell CycleMarie-Claire Arnaud, Christophe ThirietProblem statement: Histone modifications are required for chromatin activities and are believed to form an epigenetic code. However, the inheritance of the histone post-translational modifications remains unclear. Approach and Results: The aim of this study was to evaluate the histone modifications throughout the cell cycle and to determine whether the histone marks are transferred to daughter cells. Using the naturally … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 2 · 29 May 2012 · 7,580 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnti-Metalloproteinase-9 Activities of Selected Indonesian Zingiberaceae Rhizome Extracts in Lipopolysaccharide-Induced Human Vascular Endothelial Cells In VitroYantiProblem statement: Atherosclerosis is associated with chronic inflammation triggered by bacterial infection that activates the breakdown of extracellular matrix protein by matrix Metalloproteinases (MMPs). Zingiberaceae, a group of tropical food crops grown in Indonesia and other Southeast Asia regions, has been traditionally used for food coloring, seasoning, culinary and medicinal purposes.
