Literature ReviewOpen accessPhrase in the titleOn the Natural Intelligence and Consciousness of the Immune System and its Relationship with the BrainMarco Ruggiero, Akira HiratsukaIn this article, we consider the relationship between the brain and the immune system in the context of the Orchestrated Objective Reduction (Orch OR) theory of consciousness. Orch OR is a theory that postulates that consciousness arises from quantum computations occurring inside microtubules. The immune system is capable of acquiring, learning, and remembering information, thus showing all the attributes of … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 19, Issue 1 · 17 Apr 2024 · 11,431 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleDescription of a Novel Probiotic Concept: Implications for the Modulation of the Immune SystemStefania Pacini, Marco RuggieroIt is estimated that the first processed food products consumed by humans pertained to the category of fermented foods and beverages such as beer, wine, sauerkraut, fermented sausage as well as fermented milk derivatives such as yogurt and kefir. Thus, fermented foods are endowed with undisputed healthy properties due to the presence of probiotic microbes that not only help supporting … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 13, Issue 2 · 28 Jan 2017 · 9,237 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleAdaptation to High Grain Diets Proceeds Through Minimal Immune System Stimulation and Differences in Extracellular Matrix Protein Expression in A Model of Subacute Ruminal Acidosis in Non-lactating Dairy CowsB. W. McBride, O. AlZahal, M. A. Steele, L. DionissopoulosProblem statement: Subacute Ruminal Acidosis (SARA) is a metabolic disorder affecting approximately 20% of all dairy cattle in North America. Although the presence of SARA has been described for some time, the etiology of the disorder remains uncertain. For example, many animals diagnosed with SARA seem to remodel and adapt their epithelium to accommodate the stresses imposed by SARA, but … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 25 Jul 2012 · 8,118 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleUnique Characteristic Features of Mycobacterium Tuberculosis in Relation to Immune SystemRajni, Laxman S. MeenaProblem statement: Tuberculosis is a leading global mortality factor which has not been effectively controlled, with 1.7 million deaths per year and 8.9 million new cases. Aerobic microbe Mycobacterium Tuberculosis H37Rv (MTB) is the causative agent of tuberculosis. Approach: It is unique among prokaryotes due to its exceptional features contributing to its survival within the hostile environment of macrophages. Results: … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 16 Aug 2011 · 17,211 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleEvaluation of Artificial Immune System with Artificial Neural Network for Predicting Bombay Stock Exchange TrendsM. Gunasekaran, K. S. RamaswamiProblem statement: The purpose of this study is to develop an artificial immune system for recognizing stock market trends and predict upward and downward directions of stock market. This study compared two prediction models, an Artificial Immune System (AIS) and Artificial Neural Network (ANN) for predicting the future index value, trend of Indian stock market and discovers the best prediction … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 7 · 28 Jun 2011 · 7,075 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleGlucans and the Poultry Immune SystemJacqueline Jacob, Anthony PescatoreWith the reduced availability of antibiotics, poultry producers are looking for feed additives to stimulate the immune system of their birds. Some beta-glucans have been shown to improve gut health in poultry subjected to a bacterial challenge, to increase the flow of new immunocytes into the various lymphoid organs, to increase macrophage function, to increase antibody titers after a vaccination … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 13, Issue 1 · 12 Apr 2017 · 12,367 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleEvaluation the Synergistic Effect of High Dose Radiation of Radioiodine on the Immune System Suppressed By CyclosporineMehrosadat Alavi, Mohammad Ali Okhovat, Kourosh Bamdad et al.Cyclosporine is an immunosuppressant drug and iodine-131 is the diagnostic and therapeutic radioisotope in nuclear medicine. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the synergistic effect of high-dose radiation of radioiodine on the suppression of the immune system of BALB/cmice after receiving cyclosporine. A total of 50 mice BALB/c were randomly divided into two groups (control and test). Then, 50 … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 28 Sep 2015 · 6,877 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleLaser Therapy of Irradiated Traumatized Skeletal Muscles and State of Immune System in AnimalsNelly Bulyakova, Svetlana Zubkova, Valentina AzarovaProblems statement: This study was designed to examine the effect of laser therapy on regeneration of traumatized skeletal muscles and on dynamics of immune responses in thymus and bone marrow under ionizing radiation. Approach: After local X-ray radiation of both rat gastrocnemius muscles at a dose 20 Gy or after total γ-irradiation of animals at a semiletal dose 6 Gy, … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 27 Aug 2011 · 8,198 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleEffects of 50 HZ Magnetic Field on Some Factors of Immune System in the Male Guinea PigsH. Sedghi, S. Zare, H. Hayatgeibi et al.This study investigated the bio-effects of 50 Hz MF exposure on some Immunological factors (ACTH, cortisol and glucose levels) in male Guinea pigs. The capacity of 50 Hz Electromagnetic Fields (EMF) to interfere in the weakness of endocrine system has been a relevant fact into the scientific community, since we are more susceptible for this kind of exposure, in modern … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2005 · 7,997 accessesView PDFCite
