bacterial and viral triggers are suspected agents in the initial etiology of autoimmune diseases. there are some studies on the etiology of autoimmune disorders which have focused on streptococcal infection and a possible relation with microbial heat shock proteins (hsp) which show significant homology with human heat shock proteins. in addition, some serotypes of streptococci cross-react with ...

in traditional system of indian medicine, c.bonducella is widely used for its antipyretic, antiperiodic, anticonvulsive, and antiparalytic activities. for assessing anticonvulsant activity, pentylenetetrazole, maximal electro shock, strychnine- and picrotoxin-induced convulsions models were used. diazepam was used as a standard reference for all models except maximal electro shock model, wherei...

a self-regulated high-copy number plasmid containing chloramphenicol resistant gene, for the production of recombinant proteins under the regulation of bacteriophage ?pl promoter, was constructed. the designed 5024 base pair expression plasmid contained a heat sensitive repressor ci857 coding gene to regulate the function of ?pl promoter under heat shock induction. using the constructed vector,...

allergens are proteins or glycoproteins which make widespread disorders that can lead to a systemic anaphylactic shock and even death within a short period of time. understanding the protein features that are involved in allergenicity is important in developing future treatments as well as engineering proteins in genetic transformation projects. a big dataset of 1439 protein features from 761 p...

Skeletal muscle may develop adaptive chaperone and enhancementdefense system through daily exercisestimulation. The present study investigated resistance and exhaustion training alters the expression of chaperoneproteins. These proteins function to maintain homeostasis, facilitate repair from injury and provide protection. Exercise-induced production of HSPs in skeletal muscle and peripheral le...
