Background & Objective: Dangerous O is very important to transfusion medicine and there has been reports by Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regarding some death relating incidences. As high iso-antibody production is closely associated with different immune reactions, a survey on the different immune response of dangerous O donors can lead to understanding their immune respo...

immune infertility, in terms of reproductive failure, has become a serious health issue involving approximately 1 out of 5 couples at reproductive age. semen that is defined as a complex fluid containing sperm, cellular vesicles and other cells and components, could sensitize the female genital tract. the immune rejection of male semen in the female reproductive tract is explained as the failur...

Over the past decade, it was widely accepted that some chemotherapeutic drugs can be combined with immunotherapeutic drugs in treatment of cancer. Chemotherapeutic drugs can induce apoptosis in the tumor cell and at the same time stimulate the immune response. Several reports support the use   immunomodulators in treatment of cancers through regulating the immune response and boosting the micro...

objective: hepatitis c virus (hcv) is one of the most relevant persistent infections afflicting the human population. control of viral replication in hcv infection has been associated with the cellular component of the host immune response. several mechanisms have been proposed to explain this abnormal immune response, among them an altered activity of regulatory t cells (tregs) being the most ...

objective(s): soluble leishmania antigens (sla) provide suitable protection against leishmaniasis in murine model when delivered by an appropriate delivery system. liposomes have been shown to be suitable vaccine delivery systems against leishmaniasis, however, the phospholipase-a (pla) activity of sla is a drawback to prepare a stable liposomal sla. one strategy to overcome this problem might ...

in this research, we investigated the effects of medicinal plants, prebiotic and probiotic as alternatives to antibiotics on the growth performance, immune response and blood cholesterol in broilers. a total of 288 one- day-old broiler chicks (cobb 500) were randomly assigned to 6 treatments and replicated 4 times with 12 chicks per pen in a completely randomize design experiment in 6 wk. diet ...

conclusions these results exhibited the immuno potentiator effects of mip-3beta plasmid when coadministrated with the hcv core dna vaccine. complimentary studies integrating mip-3beta as a genetic adjuvant in hcv-core-dna vaccination models are warranted. results mice covaccinated with mip-3beta elicited an enhanced th1 biased systemic immune response as evidenced by higher ifn-γ/il-4 and anti-...

The ARMADILLO cryptographic primitive is a multi-purpose cryptographic primitive for RFID devices proposed at CHES’10. The main purpose of the primitive is to provide a secure authentication in a challenge-response protocol. It has two versions, named ARMADILLO (subsequently denoted by ARMADILLO1) and ARMADILLO2. However, we found a fatal weakness in the design which allows a passive attacker t...

In recent years, the microbiome has been recognized as a key regulator of immune responses. Evidence suggests that changes in the microbiome can lead to chronic disease and even exacerbation of the disease. Impairment of innate immunity resulting from microbial incompatibility may worsen host susceptibility to infection and exacerbate chronic lung diseases. Specific microbes play a key role in ...
