Structure of the neutrophil-activating protein from Helicobacter pylori.

Serum Antibodies against Helicobacter pylori Neutrophil Activating Protein in Carriers of IL-4 C-590T Genetic Polymorphism Amplify the Risk of Gastritis and Gastric Cancer

Background: Gastric cancer arises, mainly, on an inflammatory background. Helicobacter pylori neutrophil activating (HP-NAP) protein functions as a potent pro-inflammatory mediator.  Similarly, IL-4 plays a critical role in the inflammation pathway, the levels of which are altered by C to T transition at position -590 in its promoter region. Here, we have aimed to assess the risk of gastri...

Carbohydrate binding specificity of the neutrophil-activating protein of Helicobacter pylori.

The possible interaction of the neutrophil-activating protein of Helicobacter pylori with target cell glycoconjugates was investigated by the binding of 125I-labeled recombinant protein to glycosphingolipids from human neutrophils in solid phase assays. Thereby, a distinct binding of the neutrophil-activating protein to four bands in the acid glycosphingolipid fraction from human neutrophils wa...

Effects of T208E activating mutation on MARK2 protein structure and dynamics: Modeling and simulation

Microtubule Affinity-Regulating Kinase 2 (MARK2) protein has a substantial role in regulation of vital cellular processes like induction of polarity, regulation of cell junctions, cytoskeleton structure and cell differentiation. The abnormal function of this protein has been associated with a number of pathological conditions like Alzheimer disease, autism, several carcinomas and development of...

Polarization and Improved Migration Maturation of Dendritic Cells with Th1 Neutrophil-Activating Protein Promotes Helicobacter pylori

Polarization and Improved Migration Maturation of Dendritic Cells with Th1 Neutrophil-Activating Protein Promotes Helicobacter pylori Vector-Encoded

آماده‌سازی نانوذرات تری‌متیل کیتوزان حامل پروتئین فعال کننده نوتروفیلی نوترکیب از هلیکوباکتر پیلوری

Background and purpose: Breast cancer is one of the leading causes of death in women around the world with a very high degree of mortality and morbidity. Conventional treatments use cytotoxic drugs which have high levels of side effects, affecting the patient’s quality of life. Therefore today’s pharmacology is looking into treatments with low side effects and maximum efficiency. The helicobact...
