DEC-205 (CD205) belongs to the macrophage mannose receptor family of C-type lectin endocytic receptors and behaves as an antigen uptake/processing receptor for dendritic cells (DC). To investigate DEC-205 tissue distribution in human leukocytes, we generated a series of anti-human DEC-205 monoclonal antibodies (MMRI-5, 6 and 7), which recognized epitopes within the C-type lectin-like domains 1 ...

Glioma is the most frequent primary intracranial tumor worldwide. Dexmedetomidine an efficient anesthetic used in surgery and has impact on glioma. Yet, mechanism of dexmedetomidine biological characteristics glioma cells unknown. Circ_BRAF, microRNA-381-3p thrombospondin 2 was detected via quantitative reverse transcription-polymer chine reaction. Proliferation detection conducted using 3-(4,5...

The expression of Adenovirus serotype 2 or serotype 5 (Ad2/5) E1A in tumor cells reduces their tumorigenicity in vivo by enhancing the NK cell mediated and T cell mediated anti-tumor immune response, an activity that correlates with the ability of E1A to bind p300. We determined if E1A could be used as a molecular adjuvant to enhance antigen-specific T cell responses to a model tumor antigen, o...

micrornas (mirnas) represent a class of small non-coding rna molecules that regulate gene expression at the post-transcriptional level. they play a crucial role in diverse cellular pathways. ionizing radiation (ir) is one of the most important treatment protocols for patients that suffer from cancer and affects directly or indirectly cellular integration. recently it has been discovered that mi...

Athletes and exercisers have utilised high-protein diets for centuries. The objective of this review is to examine the evidence for the efficacy and potential dangers of high-protein diets. One important factor to consider is the definition of a ‘high-protein diet’. There are several ways to consider protein content of a diet. The composition of the diet can be determined as the absolute amount...
