abstract background a vast variety of factors may cause recurrent pregnancy loss. blood group incompatibility of parents could cause abortion. the examination of couples or twins, blood groups showed that the blood group incompatibility can affect adversely the outcome of pregnancy. couples with blood group incompatibility are more involved in spontaneous miscarriage. antigenes in two different...

A novel lateral flow immunoassay biosensor, combining the receptor-ligand reaction and antigen-antibody was developed for detection of ?-lactam antibiotics in milk. The receptor protein, carboxy-terminal domain sensor-transducer mutant from Bacillus. licheniformis, served as recognition element. Colloidal gold (CG)-labelled antibody-receptor ternary complex applied a signal transducer probe. pr...

We report here the rational design and optimization of an antibody-responsive, DNA-based device that enables communication between pairs otherwise non-interacting proteins. The is designed to recognize bind a specific antibody and, in response, undergo conformational change leads release DNA strand, termed “translator,” regulates activity downstream target protein. As proof principle, we demons...

background: systemic lupus erythematosus (sle) is a chronic autoimmune disease which is characterized by b-cell abnormality and auto-antibody generation. since bacterial infections are the most important causes of mortality in these patients, pneumococcal vaccination is recommended for children with sle. objective: to investigate humoral immunity and specific-antibody formation in response to a...

Objective(s):Multi-epitopic protein vaccines and direction of vaccine delivery to dendritic cells (DCs) are promising approaches for enhancing immune responses against mutable pathogens. Escherichia coli is current host for expression of recombinant proteins, and it is important to optimize expression condition. The aim of this study was the optimization of multi-epitopic HIV-1 tat/pol/gag/env ...

The aim of the present was to evaluate the prevalence of H9N2-specific antibodies among water buffaloes (Bubalus bubalis). To this end, blood samples were obtained from 80 randomly selected water buffaloes, 40 cases of which were obtained in the winter months, and 40 cases were sampled in the spring months. The presence of H9N2-specific antibody was determined by hemaggl...

Antiphospholipid antibodies (APLA) may be detected in normal pregnancies and also may cause thrombosis, recurrent fetal loss, placental infarction and preeclampsia. In the present study the possible differences in APLA titer between healthy pregnant women and preeclampsia cases without history of thrombosis was examined. The APLA titer in 50 healthy pregnant women with 50 preeclampsia cases wit...
