The edible mushrooms (basidomycetes) have high nutritional value, promote the immune system, and as a source of natural antimicrobial substances have been used to cure bacterial infections since ancient times.Various kinds of proteins with several biological activities are produced by mushrooms. In this research, in order to evaluate antibacterial activity of edible mushrooms, we isolated prote...

background: lipopolysaccharides (lpss) and several antigenic proteins of brucella have been considered for preparation of diagnostic reagents and subunit vaccines. the objective of this study was to identify and compare immunogens of b. abortus s19 which induce humoral immune responses in human, goat and rabbit.   material and methods: the bacterial whole cell extract was prepared in extraction...

phosphate (p) is one of the key substrates in energy metabolism and biosynthesis of nucleic acids and membranes. in order to identify molecular mechanisms involved in rice adaptation to p deficiency, we applied a proteomic approach to compare a rice parental line, nipponbare (sensitive), and its near isogenic line (nil6-4) (resistant). the experiment was conducted using a completely randomized ...

background: viscerotropic leishmaniasis caused by leishmania tropica poses a significant prob­lem in the diagnosis and treatment management. since differential gene expression is more im­portant in outcome of the infection, we employed proteomic approach to identify potential pro­teins involved in visceralization of l. tropica . methods: the proteomes profiling of l. tropica isolated from cutan...

Milk is an important component of a balanced diet and contains many valuable constituents. A considerable part of the milk healthbenefits is related to its proteins, not only for their nutritive value but also for their biological properties. Scientific evidence suggests that anticarcinogenic activities, antihypertensive properties, immune system modulation, and other metabolic features of milk...

in this study the nature of chromosomal proteins, his tones and nonhistone in resident alveolar macrophages was investigated in comparison to peritoneal neutrophils and calf thymus proteins. cells were obtained by lavaging the lung and after purity determination they were subjected to fractional extraction procedures. proteins were then analysed on sds polyacrylamide gels and densitometric scan...

Background: Proteins are known mainly based on their metabolic and nutritional functions including protein synthesis and a source of energy. In spite of various physiological properties attributed to proteins, their functions have neither been addressed by assessing quality of proteins nor by nutrition and dietetic practices. Methods: Studies were included if they were randomized animal studies...

The most common malignant neoplasm of the head and neck region is laryngeal cancerwhich presents a significant international health problem. The present study aims to screenpotential proteins related to laryngeal cancer by network analysis to further understandingdisease pathogenesis and biomarker discovery. Differentially expressed proteins were extractedfrom literatures of laryngeal cancer th...
