background: cd52 is a small glycoprotein with a gpi anchor at its c-terminus. cd52 is expressed by normal and malignant t and b lymphocytes and monocytes. there are detectable amounts of soluble cd52 in plasma of patients with cll and could be used as a tumor marker. although the biological function of cd52 is unknown but it seems that cd52 may be involved in migration and activation of t-cells...

In recent years, the number of recombinant proteins used for therapeutic applications and industry has increased dramatically. Recombinant proteins are produced in many host organisms (microbial, insect, plant and mammalian cells). There are many factors to consider when choosing the optimal system for protein expression and purification including the mass, purity or solubility of the recombina...

pasteurella multocida (p. multocida) is an important pathogen of various domestic animals. the outer membrane proteins (omps) play a major role in pathogenesis and immunogenicity of p. multocida. the aim of the study was to develop indirect enzyme linked immuno sorbant assay (elisa) based on omps to ascertain the antibody titers in animals post-infection or to gauge the potency of vaccine. the ...

receptors and proteins are overexpressed in many human cancer cell membranes rather than normal tissues and are considered as the main molecular targets. specific tumor- targeting molecules which have high affinity for these receptors can be valuable tools as carrier molecules for targeted cancer therapy and imaging. pharmacokinetics and bioavailability of diagnostic and therapeutic agents are ...

Ocular involvement in lymphoma is a relatively rare condition that can result from a primary intraocular lymphoma or an intraocular manifestation of systemic lymphoma. Lymphoma manifestations frequently masquerade as other more benign intraocular conditions including allergic or infectious conjunctivitis, uveitis, multiple evanescent white dot syndrome, acute retinal necrosis, or herpetic retin...
