Human responses to extreme altitudes.
It is a strange coincidence that the highest point on Earth is very close to the limit of human tolerance to hypoxia. The physiological changes that allow humans to reach these extreme altitudes involve enormous alterations of their normal state. It is useful to contrast this response with two others to high altitude. One is acclimatization that allows lowlanders to ascend to altitudes of up to...
متن کاملImmune Responses to Microbes
34 IMMUNE RESPONSES TO MICROBES Two important vaccine advances have been the development of nanoparticle-based vaccine formulations and the identification of unique microbial products that are agonists for immunologic receptors: virus-like particles (VLPs) or nanoparticles, and Toll-Like Receptor (TLR) agonists, respectively.1-3 The immune system continuously screens for and interacts with micr...
متن کاملChallenges and strategies: the immune responses in gene therapy.
The host immune responses, including T lymphocytes mediated immune response and humoral immune responses are the important parts of the challenges in gene therapy. There are some potential immunostimulants in gene delivery systems, such as viral and non-viral vectors. Viral gene products, transgene products, viral proteins derived from viral particles required by dead-end infection, and CpG DNA...
متن کاملRadiation effects on antitumor immune responses: current perspectives and challenges
Radiotherapy (RT) is currently used in more than 50% of cancer patients during the course of their disease in the curative, adjuvant or palliative setting. RT achieves good local control of tumor growth, conferring DNA damage and impacting tumor vasculature and the immune system. Formerly regarded as a merely immunosuppressive treatment, pre- and clinical observations indicate that the therapeu...
