Background: The refolding of proteins from inclusion bodies is affected by several factors, including solubilization of inclusion bodies by denaturants, removal of the denaturant, and assistance of refolding by small molecule additives. Objectives: The purpose of this study was optimization of recombinant human interferon-b purification in order to achieve higher efficiency, yield, and a produ...

The recombinant antibody H90-10 detects the endogenous human heat-shock protein 90 beta (Hsp90β) by immunoprecipitation (IP) and Western blotting.

human growth hormone (hgh) is a protein with multiple roles in a range of biological functions such as protein, carbohydrates and lipid metabolisms as well as immunity, tissue development and overall growth. one of the major class of biopharmaceuticals in mammalian cells is the production of recombinant pharmaceutical proteins. in this study, we constructed a lentiviral vector carrying coding r...

introduction: astrocytes, the most abundant glia in the central nervous system, modulate neuronal survival and function. astrocytic functions are mediated by synthesis and secretion of wide ranges of polypeptides through mechanism (s) poorly understood. among these, tgfβs are synthesized and released by the astrocytes. in this study, the involvement of wnt signaling pathway on the synthesis of ...

We present a class of porous polymer monoliths with high visible light transmittance and low haze synthesized using nitroxide-mediated stable free radical polymerization (SFRP), form controlled polymerization, to suppress large pore structures. Such materials can find applications in thermally insulated windows. Aerogels adjustable optical properties were achieved by modulating the nitroxide eq...

Background: Cystic echinococcosis (CE), as a chronic parasitic disease, is a major health problem in many countries. The performance of the currently available serodiagnostic tests for the diagnosis of CE is unsatisfactory. Objective: The current study aimed at sub-cloning a gene, encoding the B8/1 subunit of antigen B (AgB) from Echinococcus granulosus, using gene optimization for the immunodi...

BACKGROUND It has been reported that secreted frizzled-related protein-4 known as an antagonist of Wnt signaling pathway plays a role in luteinization process of rodent granulosa cells. The purpose of this study was twofold: 1) to determine whether recombinant human secreted frizzled-related protein-4 (rhSFRP-4) could directly induce terminal differentiation of rat Granulosa Cells (GCs) and 2) ...

Background: Human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) is a member of glycoprotein hormones family consist of two different non-covalently heterodimeric chains: alpha and beta subunits with 92 and 145 amino acids respectively. This hormone plays an important role in human reproduction and physiology especially for maintenance of the corpus luteum during the first months of pregnancy Materials and Metho...

background : toxoplasma gondii is an obligate intracellular protozoan parasite, capable of infecting all species of mammals including man. congenital toxoplasmosis is more important during pregnancy for the first time. in this study we expressed and purified p43 toxoplasma gondii tachyzoite and bradyzoite specific surface antigen. methods : the recombinant pgemex-1 contained toxoplasma p43 codi...

  Objective(s): Streptokinase (SKa) is an antigenic protein which is secreted by Streptococcus pyogenes. Streptokinase induces inflammation by complement activation, which may play a role in post infectious diseases. In the present study, recombinant streptokinase from S. pyogenes was produced and showed that recombinant SKa protein was recognized by infected human sera using Western blot analy...
