Background: Breast cancer is one of the most prevalent cancers among women. Common cancer treatment methods are not effective enough, and there is a need for a more efficient treatment procedure. Cancer vaccine is a novel immunotherapy method that stimulates humoral and/or cellular immunity against cancer. Placenta-specific protein 1 (PLAC1) is a cancer/testis antigen, prevalent in breast cance...

the study was carried out to investigate the effects of camelia (camelina sativa l. crantz) variety (cs) oil or seeds on performance, meat quality, immunity and plasma metabolic profile in broiler chickens. the broilers (n= 2,080, cobb 500) were randomly allocated (sex ratio 1:1) for 32-day experimental periods (from 11d to 42 d) to 4 experimental groups: control (corn-soybean meal-full fat soy...

this experiment was conducted to determine the effects of the oral consumption of guggulplant resin on the performance and humoral immunity response of broiler chicks. for doing this experiment, 320 one-day old chicks of the cobb 500 strains, in a completely randomized design with 4 treatments and 4 replicates were used. experimental diets include: control diet (without the guggul), control die...

Fish hematology is one of the most recent branches of physiology to assess the status of general health. Blood is the transport medium, a defense system, and an acid/base buffer system. Circulating blood is the common denominator of health and illness and alteration in its chemical or cellular illness and composition can indicate hematological and nonhematological diseases. Erythrocytes occupy ...
