background: recombinant monoclonal antibodies have been marketed in last three decades as the major therapeutic proteins against different cancers. however choosing a proper medium and supplements to reach the high expression is a challenging step. despite of commercial serum free and chemically defined media, there are still numerous researches seeking the optimum media to gain higher expressi...

introduction: regulators of g-protein signaling protein negatively control g protein -coupled receptor signaling duration by accelerating gα subunit guanosine triphosphate hydrolysis. since regulator of g-protein signaling4 has an important role in modulating morphine effects at the cellular level and the exact mechanism(s) of adrenalectomy-induced morphine sensitization have not been fully cla...

for a long time, scientists have tried to describe disorders just by genetic or environmental factors. however, the role of epigenetics in human diseases has been considered from a half of century ago. in the last decade, this subject has attracted many interests, especially in complicated disorders such as behavior plasticity, memory, cancer, autoimmune disease, and addiction as well as neurod...

objective: today, aids is considered as a global problem and many efforts to generate an effective vaccine against this disease have been made, but remain inconclusive. dna vaccines are a member of the new generation of vaccines that can efficiently stimulate the immune system. however, recent findings indicate low immunogenicity for these vaccines and it is believed that these types of vaccine...

multiple sclerosis (ms) is an inflammatory, multifocal, immune-mediated disease of the central nervous system that women are at a higher risk to acquire than men. myxovirus resistance protein a (mxa) is used as a predictive marker of bioactivity of interferon-beta (ifn-β) therapy in ms patients. this study was undertaken in west of iran to investigate gender differences in the expression level ...

conclusions our findings showed that hcv infection could lead to increased expression level of tlr7 mrna in peripheral blood cells of hcv infected samples. the viral load and genotypes of hcv did not affect the mrna expression levels of tlr2 and tlr7. background hepatitis c virus (hcv) is an important human pathogen affecting an estimated 120 – 170 million individuals in the world. toll-like re...

background: sporadic alzheimer’s disease (sad) is caused by genetic risk factors, aging and oxidative stresses. the herbal extract of rosa canina (r. canina), tanacetum vulgare (t. vulgare) and urtica dioica (u. dioica) has a beneficial role in aging, as an anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidative agent. in this study, the neuroprotective effects of this herbal extract in the rat model of sad was i...

background: cd19 is a pan b cell marker that is recognized as an attractive target for antibody-based therapy of b-cell disorders including autoimmune disease and hematological malignancies. the object of this study was to stably express the human cd19 antigen in the murine nih-3t3 cell line aimed to be used as an immunogen in our future study. methods: total rna was extracted from raji cells i...
