PURPOSE Immuno-positron emission tomography (PET), the combination of PET with monoclonal antibodies (mAb), is an attractive option to improve tumor detection and to guide mAb-based therapy. The long-lived positron emitter zirconium-89 ((89)Zr) has ideal physical characteristics for immuno-PET with intact mAbs but has never been used in a clinical setting. In the present feasibility study, we a...

Although transplantat io, immuno logy as a distinctive field began w h the development of experimental models thaI showed the feasibility of bone marrow I ansplantation, organ engraftment was accomplished first In humans, and was thought for many years to occur by drastically different mechanisms. Here. we present cur lJiew 0 he concepts of allograft acceptance and acquired tolerance from a his...

Acquired Immuno Deficiency syndrome (AIDS) has emerged as a real threat for mankind since last decade. Lack of knowledge and awareness about AIDS is an important factor responsible for rte rapid spread of the disease. Ayurveda as a part of its holistic approach offers the concepts of Achara Rasayana and sadvrta i.e good conduct for the self and for society. Such concepts can prevent the disease...

Mycoplasma pneumoniae is a particularly important pathogen that causes community acquired pneumonia in children. In this study, a rapid test was developed to diagnose M. pneumoniae by using a colloidal gold-based immuno-chromatographic assay which targets a region of the P1 gene. 302 specimens were analyzed by the colloidal gold assay in parallel with real-time PCR. Interestingly, the colloidal...

Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) / Acquired Immuno Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS) paling sering dijumpai penyakit infeksi oportunistik yang di sebabkan oleh Tuberkulosis (TB). HIV dan tuberkulosis saling berhubungan dapat menyebabkan banyak menyerang Orang Dengan HIV/AIDS (ODHA). Tujuan penelitian ini untuk mengetauhi gambaran pada pasien RS Moh Ridwan Meuraksa. Penelitian menggunakan metode desk...

Latar Belakang : Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) menargetkan sistem kekebalan tubuh dan melemahkan pertahanan manusia terhadap infeksi beberapa jenis kanker. Ketika merusak fungsi sel-sel kekebalan, individu yang terinfeksi secara bertahap menjadi imunodefisiensi. Tujuan Meningkatkan kerentanan berbagai infeksi, kanker, penyakit lain dapat dilawan oleh orang dengan sehat. Metode penelitian d...

We develop a new data-driven immuno-epidemiological model with distributed infectivity, recovery and death rates determined from the epidemiological, clinical experimental data. Immunity in population is taken into account through time-dependent number of vaccinated people different numbers doses acquired immunity for recovered individuals. The validated available show that first time beginning...

The Ocean, which is called the ‘mother of origin of life’, is also the source of structurally unique natural products that are mainly accumulated in living organisms. Several of these compounds show pharmacological activities and are helpful for the invention and discovery of bioactive compounds, primarily for deadly diseases like cancer, acquired immuno-deficiency syndrome (AIDS), arthritis, e...
