BACKGROUND Kawasaki disease (KD) is an acute vasculitis in children that can cause coronary artery abnormalities. Its diagnosis is challenging, and many cytokines, chemokines, acute phase reactants, and growth factors have failed evaluation as specific biomarkers to distinguish KD from other febrile illnesses. We performed protein profiling, comparing plasma from children with KD with febrile c...

In the present study, RNA interference (RNAi) was used to investigate the effect of vascular cell adhesion molecule 1 (VCAM1) silencing on the proliferation of human oral squamous carcinoma HN12 cells. HN12 cells were divided into three groups: The untreated blank control cell group (CK), the negative control group transfected with non-homologous vector (NC) and the positive group transfected w...

The integral membrane proteins of photosystem II (PS II) reaction center complexes are encoded by chloroplast genomes. These proteins are absent from thylakoids of PS II mutants of algae and vascular plants as a result of either chloroplast or nuclear gene mutations. To resolve the molecular basis for the concurrent absence of the PS II polypeptides, protein synthesis rates and mRNA levels were...

Ketogenic (KD) and high-fat (HFD) diets vitamin D (VD) produce variable effects on insulin secretion body weight (BW), but mechanisms remain unclear. We investigated the of normal fat (NFD), KD, HFD with without VD BW serum glucose, insulin, VD, resistance, C-reactive protein, interleukin-6, tumor necrosis factor-alpha in rats. Three isocaloric NFD, containing respectively protein-carbohydrate-...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE An outer membrane protein (OMP) of Helicobacter pylori namely OipA, is an important virulence factor associated with peptic ulcer and gastric cancer risks. The purpose of this study was to isolate the 34 KDa OMP of H. pylori and evaluate its immunogenicity in experimental animals for rapid detection of more virulent H. pylori isolates. MATERIAL AND METHODS Sarcosine i...

We have examined the role of caspase-mediated cleavage of the Ste20-like kinases, mammalian sterile 20-like 1 and 2 (Mst1/Mst2), in the mechanism of human eosinophil and neutrophil apoptosis. Initial measurements of kinase activity, using myelin basic protein (MBP) as a substrate in "in-gel" renaturation assays, showed that constitutive eosinophil and neutrophil apoptosis were associated tempor...

Phage-derived affinity peptides have become widespread thanks to their easy selection via phage display. Interactions between a target protein and its specific peptide are similar those antibodies antigens. The strength of these non-covalent complexes may be described by the dissociation constant (Kd). In this paper, protein-specific exposed on pIII present in M13 bacteriophage virion with up f...

The adenovirus E1b-58kd tumor antigen has been detected in a physical association with a 54 kilodalton cellular protein in adenovirus-transformed mouse cells. Antibody specific for the E1b-58kd protein coimmunoprecipitates a 54 kd protein from transformed, but not from productively infected, cells. Monoclonal antibody specific for the cellular 54 kd protein coimmunoprecipitates the adenovirus E...
