Inhibition of the interaction between scaffolding protein PSD-95 and NMDA receptor has been shown to obstruct ischemic stroke-triggered excitotoxic reactions, leading neuronal death. The peptides NR2B9c N -dimer are inhibitors this interaction. Delivery brain is challenging due general low blood–brain barrier (BBB) permeability. have therefore conjugated cell-penetrating peptide (CPP) Tat, faci...

Background& Objective: Each laboratory should determine the type of errors and turnaround time (TAT), especially in the preanalytical phase to report quality and timeliness of the test results. The current study aimed at investigating the common causes of preanalytical errors in biochemistry and hematology laboratories and evaluating the preanalytical ...

objective: dna vaccines have been widely used to develop immunity against various pathogens including parasites and viruses. the potential of dna vaccine to induce an effective immune response is related to the expression levels of the encoded protein in eukaryotic cells. therefore, optimization of plasmid dna delivery system is a major concern in protein expression in order to make an efficien...

background: designing novel therapeutic agents has been a critical challenge for hiv disease. materials and methods: in current study a dna sequence which was encoded the tat protein was synthesized and inserted in pet 28 vector. vector was cloned in bl21-de3 e. coli and cultured in tb media. after protein expression, recombinant tat protein was purified by nta affinity chromatography. the tat ...

To improve the corrosion protection of copper metal, 0.01M concentration of 1H-1,2,4-triazole-3-thiol (TAT) was incorporated into the hybrid sol-gel monolayers containing 3-glycidoxypropyltrimethoxysilane (GPTMS) and Tetraethoxysilane (TEOS). It was further subjected to hydrolysis and condensation reaction to form a sol-gel matrix. The TAT-doped hybrid sol-gel coating was applied over the c...

human immunodeficiency virus (hiv) transactivator tat is a potent activator of both viral and cellu lar genes. tat has also been implicated in the development of aids-related malignancy. here, we show that tat physically and functionally is able to sequester the cell cycle check point protein p53. this sequestration results in non-functional promoter activity of cyclin-dependent kinase/cyclin i...

HIV-1 Tat is an important regulatory protein involved in AIDS pathogenesis. However, the immunoprofiles of anti-Tat responses remain unclear. We analysed the immunoprofiles of the anti-Tat antibody responses and the neutralizing activities. Out of 326 HIV-1-seropositive individuals, 12.9% were positive for anti-Tat antibodies. We found six different immunological profiles of anti-Tat antibody r...
