Immune Evasion, Immunopathology and the Regulation of the Immune System
Costs and benefits of the immune response have attracted considerable attention in the last years among evolutionary biologists. Given the cost of parasitism, natural selection should favor individuals with the most effective immune defenses. Nevertheless, there exists huge variation in the expression of immune effectors among individuals. To explain this apparent paradox, it has been suggested...
متن کاملA Study of the Oxidation-Induced Conformational and Functional Changes in Neuroserpin
Neuroserpin, a member of the Serine Proteinase Inhibitor (Serpin) superfamily, is known to be a neuroprotective factor in the focal ischemic stroke followed by reducing the microglial activation. Neuroserpin is a protein rich of methionine residues that can scavenge the free radical species which may increase its neuroprotective effect. On the other hand, the oxidative modifications of the amin...
متن کاملEditorial: Platelets as Immune Cells in Physiology and Immunopathology
Blood platelets are essential for the earliest stages of coagulation, namely, primary hemostasis. They adhere to damaged vessel endothelium, stick to each other (aggregate), and form clots; this prevents bleeding. For most physicians, those attributes of platelets are exactly what they learned in medical school years ago, and this basic knowledge seems quite enough to allow a valid therapeutic ...
متن کاملSunitinib Induced Immune Thrombocytopenia
Sunitinib is an oral tyrosine kinase inhibitor which prevents tumor growth and metastatic progression. It was approved for treatment of advanced renal cell cancer, gastrointestinal stromal tumor and advanced pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors. It has several adverse reactions on multi organ systems including hematologic system. Although the neutropenia and thrombocytopenia commonly happens as Gra...
