Variation in the Neisseria lactamica porin, and its relationship to meningococcal PorB
One potential vaccine strategy in the fight against meningococcal disease involves the exploitation of outer-membrane components of Neisseria lactamica, a commensal bacterium closely related to the meningococcus, Neisseria meningitidis. Although N. lactamica shares many surface structures with the meningococcus, little is known about the antigenic diversity of this commensal bacterium or the an...
متن کاملNeisseria lactamica protects against experimental meningococcal infection.
Immunological and epidemiological evidence suggests that the development of natural immunity to meningococcal disease results from colonization of the nasopharynx by commensal Neisseria spp., particularly with N. lactamica. We report here that immunization with N. lactamica killed whole cells, outer membrane vesicles, or outer membrane protein (OMP) pools and protected mice against lethal chall...
متن کاملDetection of IgG and IgM to meningococcal outer membrane proteins in relation to carriage of Neisseria meningitidis or Neisseria lactamica.
Carriage of non-serogroupable Neisseria meningitidis or Neisseria lactamica induces antibodies protective against meningococcal disease. Antibodies directed against outer membrane proteins are bactericidal and the serotype and subtype outer membrane protein antigens are being examined for their value as vaccine candidates for serogroup B disease. The aim of this study was to examine the effect ...
متن کاملStructure and function of the PorB porin from disseminating Neisseria gonorrhoeae.
The outer membrane of Gram-negative bacteria contains a large number of channel-forming proteins, porins, for the uptake of small nutrient molecules. Neisseria gonorrhoeae PorBIA (PorB of serotype A) are associated with disseminating diseases and mediate a rapid bacterial invasion into host cells in a phosphate-sensitive manner. To gain insights into this structure-function relationship we anal...

این تحقیق به منظور بررسی رابطه بین میزان استراتژیهای خود-تنظیم شده یادگیری و تمایل به ایجاد ارتباط دانشجویان زبان انگلیسی انجام شده است.علاوه بر این،روابط و کنش های موجود بین ریزسنجه های استراتژیهای خود-تنظیم شده یادگُیری ، مهارت نگارش و تمایل به برقراری ارتباط و همچنین تاٍثیرجنسیت دانشجویان زبان انگلیسی در استراتژیهای خود-تنظیم شده یادگیری و تمایل به برقراری ارتباط آنها مورد بررسی قرار گرفته شد.
