Vaccines that protect against intracellular infections such as malaria, Leishmania and Chlamydia require strong cellular responses based on CD4(+) T cells and CD8(+) T cells in addition to antibodies.

متن کاملNovel delivery system for natural products: Nano-curcumin formulations
Objective: Curcumin is extracted from Curcuma longa and regulates the intracellular signal pathways which control the growth of cancerous cell, inflammation, invasion and apoptosis. Curcumin molecules have special intrinsic features that can target the intracellular enzymes, genome (DNA) and messengers (RNA). A wide range of studies have been conducted on the physicochemical traits and pharmaco...
متن کاملA search for novel chemotherapy against tuberculosis amongst natural products
Novel screens have been developed for the detection of antitubercular activity among natural product extracts and these were compared with existing methodologies. Using bioassaydirected methods these screens have been employed to isolate novel antitubercular natural products from higher plant extracts and their structures have been determined. In particularly promising cases, exemplified by try...
