Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleDouble Application of Translocator Protein Ligands and RAW Cells Inflammatory MilieuMaria Staykova, Filomena Mattner, David Linares, Andrew KatsifisLigands targeting the translocator protein exhibit a variety of anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective properties. A double application of eight translocator protein ligands to activated murine macrophage-like cells changed to a different extent the levels of secreted reactive nitrogen intermediates, pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines. To our knowledge this is the first report suggesting that multiple applications of different translocator protein ligands may … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 12, Issue 3 · 28 Aug 2016 · 6,942 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleCo-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

Al-NumaProblem statement: The synthesis, spectroscopic properties and theoretical calculations of acetylacetonimine and acetylacetanilidimine Schiff-base ligands, L1H and L2H, respectively and their dinuclear complexes of the type [M2LnCl2(H2O)2], where n = 1 or 2, M = Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), Zn(II) and Cd(II) are described. Approach: The new tetradentate dianion Schiff base ligand which was used as stabilizers for the complexes were … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 5 · 31 May 2010 · 7,568 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsPart I: Removing of Zn(II) from Polluted Water: Determination of Precipitation Limit Of Zn(II) Ion With 2-Hydroxy-1,2,3-Propanetricarboxylic AcidFatmir Faiku, Haxhere Faiku, Arben Haziri et al.Problem statement: The goal of this research was to investigate the condition for removing of Zn cation from water, through precipitation method with 2-hydroxy-1,2,3-propanetricarboxylic acid as ligand. Approach: In this study we examined the precipitation of Zn(II) ion in water solutions of ZnSO4 × 7H2O (1×10-2 and 5×10-3 mol L-1) with 2-hydroxy-1,2,3-propanetricarboxylic acid (1×10-1-1×10-3 mol L-1) in constant ionic strength … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 28 Feb 2010 · 6,969 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsDetermination of Zinc, Cadmium, Lead and Copper in Kakade, Anise, Cumin, Caraway Black Pepper Extracts Using Differential Pulse Anodic Stripping Voltammetry with Hanging Mercury Drop ElectrodeZ. R. KomyAn extraction and sensitive differential pulse anodic stripping voltammetric (DPASV) method at a hanging mercury drop electrode (HMDE) is described for the determination of Zn, Cu, Pb (mg g1) and Cd (ng g1) metal ions in water and 0.1 M HCl extracts for kakade, anise, cumin, caraway and black pepper. The procedure in water extract is based on the determination … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 5 · 31 May 2005 · 6,875 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComputational Validation of Selected Compounds from the GC-MS Profile of Abies numidica Essential Oil and their Antibacterial EffectsAbdelouahab Dehimat, Boudjellal Fayssal, Salem Dounya et al.This work examined the chemical composition of the Algerian endemic tree Abies numidica (Pinaceae) and investigated the antibacterial potential of three major constituents of its essential oil-Santene, Linalyl acetate, and 2,6-Octadiene-2,6-dimethyl-as reported in previously published GC-MS data. Computational antibacterial screening was carried out by docking the selected compounds onto the bacterial proteins 5Z9N (Staphylococcus aureus) and 3AQC (Micrococcus luteus).

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMechanism Analysis of Artemisinin and Artesunate as Lung Cancer Therapy Agents Through in Silico MethodDidik Harmoko, Vivitri Dewi Prasasty, Adi YulandiSeveral in vitro studies have focused on the ability of artemisinin and its derivatives to suppress lung cancer cells, but there are still many biological processes and mechanisms, such as the interactions between the active compounds (ligands) and receptors that are not well understood and require further research. Drug targeting for lung cancer will be more precise and the inhibition … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 24, Issue 3 · 15 Feb 2024 · 6,144 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractFocalize the Structure of Myd88 in TLR Signaling Pathway to Modulate Innate Immune Response: New Target for Old DiseasesShuai Xing, Ping ZhouAll diseases have their Achilles’ Heel to target and this is especially true for immunorelated diseases which must be treated by targeting the immune system somewhere and somehow correctly. In the most recent decade, immunologists recognized that the Toll-Like Receptor (TLR) signaling pathway in innate immune system plays a double-edged role in the pathogenesis of many notorious diseases. Although the … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 13, Issue 3 · 6 Sep 2017 · 7,862 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDesigning of Disulfide Cyclic Peptide for Inhibiting Polymerase A and B1 (PAC-PB1N) in H1N1 Virus using Molecular Simulation ApproachUsman Sumo Friend Tambunan, Mochammad Arfin Fardiansyah Nasution, Arli Aditya Parikesit et al.The drug resistance A/H1N1 flu virus is emerging rapidly. Therefore, looking for potential therapy is very important. PB2, PB and PA are subunits of viral RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp). They play an important role in viral replication. The PA and PB1 binding sites can be considered as potential targets for the development of new influenza drugs. The peptide inhibitors can … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 3 · 24 Aug 2016 · 7,310 accessesView PDFCite
