conclusions our results showed that the recombinant protein produced by the pbad vector in the escherichia coli system was very efficient. background nontypeable haemophilus influenzae (nthi) is a significant pathogen in children, causing otitis media, sinusitis, conjunctivitis, pneumonia, and occasionally invasive infections. protein d (pd) belongs to the minor outer-membrane proteins of h. in...

All bacteria contain proteins in which their amino-terminal cysteine residue is modified with N-acyl S-diacylglycerol functions, and peptides and proteins bearing this modification are immunomodulatory. The major outer membrane lipoprotein of Escherichia coli, the Braun lipoprotein (BLP), is the prototypical triacylated cysteinyl-modified protein. We find it is as active as LPS in stimulating h...

Pasteurella multocida (P. multocida), A Gram-negative facultative anaerobic bacterium, is a causative animal pathogen in porcine atrophic rhinitis and avian fowl cholera. The outer membrane of Gram-negative bacteria contains of many different protein in very high copy numbers. One of the major outer membrane, the H proteins have functional as high immunogenicity and antigenicity. In this study ...

background: high sensitive c-reactive protein (hs-crp) is a systemic inflammatory marker that is produced in a large amount by hepatocytes in response to interleukin-1 (il-1), il-6 and tumor necrosis factor after ischemic stroke. methods: measurement of hs-crp in the first 24 hours of onset in 162 patients suffering from ischemic stroke was done. relation of crp with the risk of early mortality...
