Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsConcentration and Physicochemical Properties of Chitosan Derivatives Determine the Induction of Defense Responses in Roots and Leaves of Tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) PlantsAlejandro B. Falcón-Rodríguez, Juan C. Cabrera, Eduardo Ortega, Miguel Ángel Martínez-TéllezProblem statement: The chitosan derivatives promote diverse defensive responses in plants, which are affected by chitosan chemical features and concentration. Glucanase (EC 3.2.1.6), Phenylalanine Ammonia-Lyase (PAL, EC 4.3.1.5) and peroxidase (POD, EC 1.11.1.6) are key enzymes in tobacco defense responses. Thus, the aim of this study was to know the behavior of their enzymatic activity in leaves and roots of … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2009 · 9,263 accessesView PDFCite
Case ReportOpen accessIn the abstractA Case Report of Severe Malaria Due to Plasmodium falciparum Malaria Complicated by Symmetrical Peripheral Gangrene (SPG) at the Matlaboul Fawzaini National Hospital Center, Touba, SenegalJules Yindoni Zande, Ndeye Fatou Ngom et al.Malaria remains a major public health problem worldwide, particularly in Africa. Symmetrical Peripheral Gangrene (SPG) is a distal ischemic lesion affecting at least two extremities in the absence of proximal arterial obstruction and vasculitis. It is a rare and severe clinical entity. Its association with malaria is rare, with approximately 27 cases reported worldwide, mostly in Asia. A 15-year-old male … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 21, Issue 1 · 22 Jan 2026 · 2,806 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractJAK Inhibitors for Rheumatoid Arthritis: Assessing Efficacy and Safety in TreatmentAnastasia V. Poznyak, Varvara A Orekhova, Natalia Vladimirovna Elizova et al.Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) is a chronic autoimmune disease characterized by synovial inflammation, progressive joint destruction, and systemic complications. Dysregulated cytokine signaling through the Janus kinase/signal transducer and activator of transcription (JAK/STAT) pathway plays a central role in RA pathogenesis, making JAK inhibitors an important therapeutic option. Tofacitinib, baricitinib, and upadacitinib are oral targeted synthetic disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs that interfere with … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 4 · 8 Oct 2026 · 412 accessesView PDFCite
Literature ReviewOpen accessIn the abstractOn Destructive Peri-implant Bone LossAndre J. ViljoenDestructive peri-implant bone loss is distressing for both the patient and the treating dentist(s). In severe cases peri-implant bone loss may cause jawbone mutilation, making re-treatment highly complex or impossible and violating the treatment philosophy of “first, do no harm”. There are a multitude of causes of bone loss around a dental implant. These include, but are not limited to, … …Current Research in Dentistry, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 25 Nov 2019 · 7,472 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImmunological Response of Albino Rats Immunized with UV-Killed Candida albicansAhmad Ibrahim, Yahaya Abdullahi Umar, Mohammed Shehu BusuThe treatments of systemic candidiasis in humans with the current antifungal drugs of choice such as azole derivatives and amphotericin B have raised issues of toxicity and resistance among others. The immunogenic property of killed C. albicans was explored to evoke immunological response in the possible prevention of candidemia. Rats were immunized after acclimatization on two occasions with 106 cells/ml … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 15, Issue 3 · 26 Jul 2019 · 7,714 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Duality of AIM2 Inflammasome: A Focus on its Role in Autoimmunity and Skin DiseasesMiriam CanaveseUnderstanding the inflammasome biology is one of the most exciting challenges in immuno-pharmacology. The role of the inflammasomes has been recognized in the host defense mechanism against invading pathogens and in the development of several conditions, such as cancer, auto-inflammatory, autoimmune, metabolic and neurodegenerative disorders. DNA recognition by the cells is a crucial immunological step leading to the initiation of … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 23 Apr 2016 · 7,369 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEnhancement of Immunological Responses by Dietary Arthrospira platensis and Possibility of Field Applications as Alternative to Antibiotics in Broiler ChickenShinsuke Katayama, Yumi Kayahara, Tomoko WatanabeArthrospira platensis is one of the candidates expected to replace antibiotics by its immunostimulatory effects in broiler industry, but the evaluation aimed at field applications is not enough. Here, we measured general immunological indicators such as specific antibody responses against sheep red blood cell and Brucella abortus, serum immunoglobulin concentrations and monocyte phagocytic capacity of broiler chickens, which assigned to … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 3 Mar 2016 · 7,086 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImmunology of Septic Shock and Traumatic Injury: A ReviewWilliam Heuser, Marianne Frieri, Krishan Kumar, Anthony BoutinSepsis remains a major worldwide cause of morbidity and mortality and remains amongst the leading causes of death in medical Intensive Care Units (ICUs). Increasing injury severity associated with trauma is a significant independent risk factor for sepsis and many of these patients require intensive care unit resource utilization with increased rates of mortality. There are many postulated theories regarding … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2015 · 7,003 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRole of Cytokines and Transcription Factors in Periodontitis: A Review of Cellular and Molecular MechanismsAnne Carolina Eleutério Leite, Valéria Martins de Araújo Carneiro, Júlia Faria Nunes et al.Periodontal Diseases (PD) are characterized by pathological manifestation of host immune response to bacterial infection at the tooth/gingival interface. Evidences points periodontitis as a risk factor for pathological systemic conditions, such as, cardiovascular diseases and diabetes. The identification of host factors that determine their susceptibility to immune subversion can provide useful information in the pathogenesis of periodontitis. Protective acute inflammatory … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 9 Dec 2015 · 7,807 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractAre we Able to Harness the Immunomodulatory Power of Cytokines for Novel Autoimmune Disease Treatments?Giuseppe Nocentini, Graziella Migliorati, Carlo RiccardiSince the end of the 1970s, interleukin 2 (IL-2) has been known as a key player in T cell expansion/activation (Watson et al., 1980). In the late 1980s, some groups used IL-2 to stimulate the immune systems of tumour patients (Jacobs et al., 1986). The idea seemed brilliant and several attempts were made, but the results were disappointing (Lim et … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 22 Oct 2015 · 7,625 accessesView PDFCite
