Persistent changes in the immune system 4–10 years after ABMT

Impact of Persistent Cytomegalovirus Infection on Dynamic Changes in Human Immune System Profile

Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) imprints the immune system after primary infection, however its effect during chronic infection still needs to be deciphered. In this study we report the variation of blood cell count along with anti-HCMV IgG and T cell responses to pp-65 and IE-1 antigens, that occurred after an interval of five years in a cohort of 25 seropositive healthy adults. We found increase...

Persistent metabolic adaptation 6 years after "The Biggest Loser" competition.

OBJECTIVE To measure long-term changes in resting metabolic rate (RMR) and body composition in participants of "The Biggest Loser" competition. METHODS Body composition was measured by dual energy X-ray absorptiometry, and RMR was determined by indirect calorimetry at baseline, at the end of the 30-week competition and 6 years later. Metabolic adaptation was defined as the residual RMR after ...

COVID-19: The potential role of nutritional deficiencies, global climatic changes, and immune system dysfunction

Effects of the Prebiotic in Reducing Histopathological Changes and Immune Response of Cyprinuscarpio after Exposer to Abamectin

Background: To assess the toxicity of environmental pollutants in fish, there are different physiological parameters including histology. This study aimed to investigate the effect of prebiotic dietary supplement on fish immune response after exposure to toxicant. Methods: The study was conducted in the Gorgan University of Agricultural and Natural Resources aquaculture Laboratory in 2017. Com...

Artificial immune system (AIS) research in the last five years

Immunity-based techniques are gaining popularity in wide area of applications, and emerging as a new branch of Artificial Intelligence (AI). The paper surveys the major works in this field during the last five years, in particular, reviewed the works of existing methods and the new initiatives.
