s homo sapiens (thinking beings) and more precisely as homo fabers (creative beings) we have always been somewhat awed and puzzled by the notion of change and continuity. Is our contemporary living any different from the known past? Is terrorism of today any different from the terrorism of yesteryears? We could be more precise in our questions. Is twenty-first century-terrorism any different fr...
متن کاملOligosaccharides modulate the apoptotic activity of glycodelin.
GlycodelinA (GdA), a multifunctional glycoprotein secreted at high concentrations by the uterine endometrium during the early phases of pregnancy, carries glycan chains on asparagines at positions N28 and N63. GdA purified from amniotic fluid is known to be a suppressor of T-cell proliferation, an inducer of T-cell apoptosis, and an inhibitor of sperm-zona binding in contrast to its glycoform, ...
متن کاملGlycodelin from seminal plasma is a differentially glycosylated form of contraceptive glycodelin-A.
Glycodelin-A is a human amniotic fluid-derived glycoprotein with contraceptive and immunosuppressive activities. An immunoreactive form of glycodelin was detected in seminal plasma over a decade ago, but definitive characterization of this glycoprotein was not pursued. We considered it unlikely that the seminal plasma of fertile men would contain an appreciable amount of contraceptive glycodeli...
متن کاملOptical Coherence Tomography: Newer Techniques, Newer Machines
Introduction Since 1991, when optical coherence tomography (OCT) was first introduced as a tool for investigation in ophthalmology, OCT has become the mainstay in retinal imaging and, in some situations, has supplanted fundus fluoresce in angiography which is regarded, even today, as the gold standard for investigations in choroidal and retinal disorders. By definition, OCT represents a non-inv...
متن کاملAngiogenic role for glycodelin in tumorigenesis.
Angiogenesis plays an important role in neovascularization in tumors. Glycodelin, a hormone-responsive protein, has been detected in tumors of reproductive organs and is found in high levels in the plasma of subjects with gynecological malignancies. Glycodelin is also found in the endothelial cells of the umbilical cord and in the blood vessels of tumors. In this study, we tested whether glycod...
