Human interferon alpha (hIFNα) is a wide biological activity cytokine that is used in hepatitis and cancer treatments. It regulates many genes that are involved in antiviral and antiproliferative activities. This mini review focuses on human interferon alpha-2b (hIFNα-2b) as therapeutic protein for cancer treatment. The review covers hIFNα-2b molecular characteristic and its molecular mechanism...

Australian bat lyssavirus (ABLV) is a rhabdovirus that circulates in four species of pteropid bats (ABLVp) and the yellow-bellied sheath-tailed (ABLVs) mainland Australia. In three confirmed human cases ABLV, rabies illness preceded fatality. As with virus (RABV), post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) for potential ABLV infections consists wound cleansing, administration vaccine injection immunoglobu...

Objective(s): Production of a recombinant and immunogenic antigen using dengue virus type-3 envelope protein is a key point in dengue vaccine development and diagnostic researches. The goals of this study were providing a recombinant protein from dengue virus type-3 envelope protein and evaluation of its immunogenicity in mice. Materials and Methods: Multiple amino acid sequences of different i...

background: human granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (hg-csf) can serve as valuable biopharmaceutical for research and treatment of the human blood cancer. transplastomic plants have been emerged as a new and high potential candidate for production of recombinant biopharmaceutical proteins in comparison with transgenic plants due to extremely high level expression, biosafety and many other a...

Background: The hyaluronidases are the enzymes hydrolyze β-1, 4 glycosidic linkage of hyaluronan. Hyaluronan is a polymer consisting of a repeating disaccharide unit found in cumulus ovuforus complex, semen liquid and other tissue. Addition to hydrolyzing the hyaluronan, hyaluronidase can penetrate through the cumulus cells layer that surrounds the oocyte, thus it terms spreading factor. Moreov...

Abstract Recombinant Factor VIII-Fc fusion protein (rFVIIIFc) is an enhanced half-life therapeutic product used for the management of hemophilia A. Recent studies have demonstrated that rFVIIIFc interacts with multiple Fc gamma receptors (FcγR) resulting in activation or inhibition a wide variety FcγR expressing immune cells. We activates natural killer (NK) cells via mediated interactions FcγR...

Background: The immunogenic Brucella abortus ribosomal protein L7/L12 is a promising candidate antigen for the development of subunit vaccines against brucellosis. Objective: This study was aimed to evaluate the protection of recombinant Human Serum Albumin (HAS)-L7/L12 fusion protein in Balb/c mice. Methods: The amplified L7/L12 gene was cloned in pYHSA5 vector, pYHSA5-L7/L12 construct was tra...

pneumococcal autolysins are enzymes involved in cell wall turnover and cellular division physiologically. they have been found to be involved in the pneumococcus pathogenesis. the aim of this study was to identify the autolytic activity of spr1754 as a novel protein of streptococcus pneumoniae . moreover, the binding of the recombinant protein to plasma proteins was also determined. the spr1754...

background: in the recent years, there has been an increasing interest in secretory production of recombinant proteins, due to its various advantages compared with intracellular expression. signal peptides play a critical role in prosperous secretion of recombinant proteins. accordingly, different signal peptides have been assessed for their ability to produce secretory proteins by trial-and-er...

Antibodies provide a suitable tool in fundamental research and their high affinity and specificity make them invaluable for diagnostic and therapeutic applications. A promising alternative to conventional antibodies are the heavy chain antibodies (VHH) of Camelidae having short length, high solubility and stability are preferred to other antibody derivatives. In this study, our goal was product...
