چکیده
The lipid A component of bacterial lipopolysaccharides (endotoxins), when complexed to bovine serum albumin (BSA) or human serum albumin (HSA), was shown to be a potent pyrogen. Furthermore, rabbits could be protected against endotoxin fever by immunization with both lipid A BSA and lipid A HSA complexes. The results presented in this paper show that lipid A is responsible for the pyrogenic activity of endotoxins and their ability to induce pyrogenic immunity.

How Do Palladium Complexes Affect on Coil Structure of Human Serum Albumin in the Presence of Carbon Nanotube? A Molecular Dynamics Study
To investigate the interaction and adsorption of drug and carbon nanotube on human serum albumin, three anti-cancer drugs ([Pd(phen)(R-gly)]NO3, R = methyl, propyl and amyl) with different hydrophobic tails and anticancer activities were selected. These drugs have better anti-tumor activity and less side effects than that known cis-platinum drug. Human serum albumin is also ...
متن کاملStudy of interaction between nicotinamide and human serum albumin using spectroscopic techniques and molecular docking simulation simulation
Human serum albumin is one of the most important blood proteins that has the ability to bind a wide range of compounds and different drugs. Hence, knowing how drugs bind to albumin is crucial to understand their pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamic properties. The binding of drugs to protein affects the drug's excretion, distribution and interaction in the target tissues. Nicotinamide (NA) is a...

In this research, the Magnetite nanoparticles (Fe304) were prepared by coprecipitation of Fe3+ andFE solution in alkaline medium. Two kinds of surfactants, cetyl tri methyl ammonium bromide(CTAB) and cetyl pyridinum chloride (CPC) were used in the synthesis. Fe304 Nanoparticles werecoated with human serum albumin (HSA) and bovine serum albumin (BSA). Characteristics ofcoated magnetic nanopartic...
متن کاملGlucose and Fluoxetine Induce Fine Structural Change in Human Serum Albumin
Human serum albumin has been used as a model protein for protein folding and ligand binding studies over many decades. Due to its long life period and high concentration in plasma, HSA is highly sensitive to glycation. It is reported that 175 mg/dL glucose concentration is a threshold of kidney activity for the beginning of excretion of glucose. pH denaturation of HSA in absence and presence of...
متن کاملCo-amoxiclav Effects on the Structural and Binding Properties of Human Serum Albumin
Human serum albumin (HSA) is the most abundant plasma protein in the human body. HSA plays an important role in drug transport and metabolism. This protein has a high affinity to a very wide range of materials, including metals such as Cu2+ and Zn2+, fatty acids, amino acids and metabolites such as bilirubin and many drug compounds. In this study, we investigated the effects of co-amoxiclav, as...
