potential relationships between amino acid motifs in the antigen binding groove of various alleles of the bovine major histocompatibility complex dr (bola-dr) molecule and peripheral blood mononuclear cell (pbmc) proliferation, in response to s. aureus and phytohemaglutinin, were investigated. the animals included in the study were approximately of the same age and comprised of pure holstein-fr...

the aim of this study was to investigate the association of bovine leukocyte antigen-drb3 alleles with peripheral blood mononuclear cell (pbmc) proliferation in response to staphylococcus aureus. the animals included in this study (n=347) were approximately of same age and comprised of f2 holstein-friesian ´ charolais (n = 155), holstein-friesian backcross (f0 holstein-friesian dams crossed wit...

mitochondria play key roles in many cell functions including energy production, fatty acid metabolism, pyrimidine biosynthesis, calcium homeostasis, and aging. they also regulate crucial signaling cascades such as apoptosis and oxidative stress. the proteome is often used to investigate the functional correlations on protein levels. based upon the human, genome there is estimated 2000 to 2500 a...

Background: Dental Pulp Stem Cells (DPSCs) are multipotent mesenchymal stem cells. DPSCs can renew themselves and differentiate into various cell types such as adipocytes, osteocytes, neurons, etc. DPSCs possess immunomodulatory properties and can inhibit peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC) proliferation. Recent studies showed that conditioned-medium mesenchymal stem cells also had immunos...

background: there is a worldwide interest in searching for potential and effective medicinal plant candidates against various diseases or disorders. till now, there are number of anti-inflammatory drugs like nsaids are available which showed various adverse effects in our body. to reduce these adverse effects, some of medicinal plants have been experimentally validated. aim: the aim of our immu...

Background: Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) is a pro-inflammatory condition that supports the development of metabolic aberration and ovarian dysfunction. Chronic inflammation and the increased levels of androgens in this group of patients and their impact on the immune system may increase the risk of developing malignancies, including ovarian cancer. Thus, we interacted ovarian tumor cells ...

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are multipotent progenitor that reported to be immune-privileged and immune-evasive. MSCs capable of differentiating into specific cell types for subsequent use in cell-based therapy. They express low levels human leucocyte antigen (HLA)-ABC no HLA-DR. Wharton’s jelly-derived (WJ-MSCs) were also found leukocyte G (HLA-G), which renders them immunosuppressive. This ...

glioblastoma multiforme and other malignant gliomas continue to be associated with a dismal prognosis despite advances in diagnosis and therapy.1,2 Mean survival from the time of diagnosis is less than one year in most cases. This has spurred investigation of new treatment modalities such as immunogene ABSTRACT: Background: Cancer immunogene therapy is based on vaccination with radiated, autolo...
