Hepatitis C virus E1 protein-specific linear B-cell epitopes, pan-genotype reactivity, and functional relevance [PDF]

Frontiers in Immunology
BackgroundHepatitis C virus (HCV) infection poses a major global risk for chronic liver disease, underscoring the critical need for prevention. Our previous studies demonstrated that HCV-modified soluble E1/E2F442NYT envelope glycoproteins delivered from

A Novel Fertility Indicator Equation Using Estradiol Levels for Assessment of Phase of the Menstrual Cycle

Medicina, 2020
Background and Objectives: Urinary hormone home monitoring assays are now available for fertility awareness methods (FAMs) of family planning, but lack sensitivity and precision in establishing the start of the fertile phase.

17beta-estradiol enhances the response of plasmacytoid dendritic cell to CpG. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2009
Gender differences in immune capabilities suggest that sex hormones such as estrogens were involved in the regulation of the immunocompetence. Numerous studies also suggest that plasmacytoid dendritic cells (PDCs) play a pathogenic role in SLE.

Chemical Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of 3-Substituted Estrone/Estradiol Derivatives as 17β-Hydroxysteroid Dehydrogenase Type 1 Inhibitors Acting via a Reverse Orientation of the Natural Substrate Estrone

Molecules, 2023
Estradiol (E2) plays an important role in the progression of diseases such as breast cancer and endometriosis. Inhibition of 17β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 (17β-HSD1), the enzyme that catalyzes the last step in the biosynthesis of the estrogenic

Hepatitis C virus protects human B lymphocytes from Fas-mediated apoptosis via E2-CD81 engagement. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2011
HCV infection is often associated with B-cell regulatory control disturbance and delayed appearance of neutralizing antibodies. CD81 is a cellular receptor for HCV and can bind to HCV envelope protein 2 (E2).

Nuclear physics Electric reduced transition probabilities of \(^{186}\text{W}\) and \(^{186}\text{Os}\) isobars through the interacting boson model-I

Papers in Physics, 2023
In this study, we applied the Interacting Boson Model (IBM-I) to compute the electric reduced transition probabilities B(E2)\(\downarrow\) of even-even neutron rich \(^{186}\text{W}\) and \(^{186}\text{Os}\) isobars. The ratio \(R_{4/2} = E(4_{1}^{+}) /

B cell overexpression of FCRL5 and PD-1 is associated with low antibody titers in HCV infection.

PLoS Pathogens, 2022
Antibodies targeting the hepatitis C virus (HCV) envelope glycoprotein E2 are associated with delayed disease progression, and these antibodies can also facilitate spontaneous clearance of infection in some individuals.

Lifetime measurements of excited states in 163W and the implications for the anomalous B(E2) ratios in transitional nuclei

Physics Letters B, 2019
This letter reports lifetime measurements of excited states in the odd-N nucleus 163W using the recoil-distance Doppler shift method to probe the core polarising effect of the i13/2 neutron orbital on the underlying soft triaxial even-even core.

Study of Grodzins product (E(2+1) * B(E2)↑) in the framework of the Asymmetric Rotor Model

Open Physics, 2015
A systematic dependence of Grodzins product (E(2+1) * B(E2)↑) on the asymmetry parameter Υ0 is studied in the Z = 50 − 82, N = 82 − 126 major shell space.
