Because vertebrate neuromuscular junctions are readily accessible for experimental manipulation, they have provided a superb model in which to examine and test functional correlates of chemical synaptic transmission. In the neuromuscular synapse, acetylcholine receptors have been localized to the crests of the junctional folds and visualized by a variety of ultrastructural techniques. By using ...

Seven patients exposed to the inhalation of synthetic fibres presented with various bronchopulmonary diseases, such as asthma, extrinsic allergic alveolitis, chronic bronchitis with bronchiectasis, spontaneous pneumothorax, and chronic pneumonia. The histological features are described and an attempt has been made to set up immunological techniques for the diagnosis. A series of histochemical t...

A sensitive immunological assay for plasminogen and/or plasmin was developed by using a haemagglutination inhibition technique. Plasma and the corresponding euglobulin fraction of healthy subjects and of patients with hyperfibrinolysis (liver cirrhosis, thrombolytic treatment) were assayed for plasminogen using immunological and caseinolytic techniques. In hyperfibrinolytic states discrepancies...

Introduction: This section provides a brief overview of the significance kidney failure and its impact on public health. It highlights urgent need for effective diagnostic treatment approaches to address this growing health concern. Overview Immunological Mechanisms in Kidney Failure: The role immune system dysregulation development progression is discussed section. Various cells, cytokines, in...

Monoclonal antibodies are essential biomedical research and clinical reagents that are produced by companies and research laboratories. The NIAID Immunology Database and Analysis Portal (ImmPort) is a sustainable data warehouse for data generated by NIAID, DAIT and DMID funded studies designed to allow long-term archiving and re-use of immunological data [1]. A variety of immunological data in ...

The immunological synapse is a specialized cell-cell junction between T cell and antigen-presenting cell surfaces. It is characterized by a central cluster of antigen receptors, a ring of integrin family adhesion molecules, and temporal stability over hours. The role of this specific organization in signaling for T cell activation has been controversial. We use in vitro and in silico experiment...

herpes simplex virus type 1 (hsv-1) is a member of the herpesviridae family that causes herpetic disease in human. during the last 25-30 years, many investigations have been conducted on pathogenesis and molecular biology of this virus in several countries. in iran hsv-1 has been isolated from patients and detected using immunological techniques. in this study, we investigated the molecular asp...
