Discriminating antigen and non-antigen using proteome dissimilarity: bacterial antigens [PDF]
It has been postulated that immunogenicity results from the overall dissimilarity of pathogenic proteins versus the host proteome. We have sought to use this concept to discriminate between antigens and non-antigens of bacterial origin. Sets of 100 known antigenic and nonantigenic peptide sequences from bacteria were compared to human and mouse ...

A Strategy for Efficient Preparation of Genus-Specific Diagnostic Antibodies for Snakebites
As said by former United Nations Secretary-General Kofi Annan, “Snakebite is the most important tropical disease you’ve never heard of.” Listed as a priority neglected tropical disease by the World Health Organization, snakebite envenoming (SBE) kills in

Abstract: The most recent Human Leucocyte Differentiation Antigen Workshop (“HLDA7”) took place in 2000 in Harrogate, UK and the proceedings are about to be published (Leucocyte Typing VII). New Sections were introduced in this Workship (Dendritic cells, Stem/progenitor cells, Erythroid cells and Carbohydrate Structures) and monoclonal antibodies were ...

Postmortem Stability of SARS-CoV-2 in Mouse Lung Tissue
The infectivity of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 in deceased persons and organisms remains unclear. We studied transgenic K18 hACE2 mice to determine the kinetics of virus infectivity after host death.

Dendritic Cells and Their Multiple Roles during Malaria Infection
Dendritic cells (DCs) play a central role in the initiation of adaptive immune responses, efficiently presenting antigens to T cells. This ability relies on the presence of numerous surface and intracellular receptors capable of sensing microbial ...

Background. Dendritic cells regulate immune responses to microbial products and play a key role in ulcerative colitis (UC) pathology. We determined the immunomodulatory effects of probiotic strain Lactobacillus casei Shirota (LcS) on human DC
