Surface and cytoplasmic antigens in retinoblastoma.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Surface and cytoplasmic antigens in retinoblastoma were examined by antisera prepared against two tissue-cultured retinoblastoma cell lines. In addition, several other antisera, including anti-rhodopsin, anti-rod outer segment, anti-large-molecular-weight protein, anti-S, and anti-P antigen, were also utilized in a complement-dependent cytotoxicity assay in order to explore the tumor cell surface. Antisera to tissue-cultured retinoblastoma cell lines were cross-reactive to both cell lines as was rod outer segment antiserum.

Detection of Helicobacter Pylori Diagnostic Antigens in the Stool of Infected Patients
Background: Some antigens of H. pylori are excreted into the stool of infected people. These antigens can be used to detect the infection by immunoassays such as ELISA. Our aim was to identify these antigens by immunoblotting and affinity chromatography techniques. Methods: Four different antigenic preparations, namely, whole cell sonicate (WCS), outer membrane proteins (OMPs), cytoplasmic anti...

Taoxoplasma gondii is an important food-borne parasite transmitted primarily from animals to humans through meat consumption, mainly pork and lamb, as well as through oocysts shed by cats. Infection in humans can cause severe fetal malformations, ocular complications or encephalitis. Toxoplasmosis infection during pregnancy, especially in sheep, often results in abortion, representing considera...
متن کاملMolecular Investigation of the Human Adenovirus in Retinoblastoma Patients
Background and Aims: Retinoblastoma tumors are the most common intraocular malignancy in childhood, leading to death after two years. The Human Adenovirus (HAdV) infection could be critical in the retinoblastoma pathogenesis due to the virus and retinoblastoma 1 interactions. The objective of the current study was to investigate the possible presence of the HAdV genome in the retinoblastoma pat...

Background and Objectives: Retinoblastoma is the most common intraocular pediatric malignancy. Angiogenic factor expression such as VEGF (vascular endothelial growth factor) in retinoblastoma can be confirmatory angiogenic potential of this tumor. This study was performed to determine the role of angiogenesis in local invasion of retinoblastoma and its correlation with patients’ sur...
