Persistence of the immune response induced by BCG vaccination. [PDF]

, 2008
BACKGROUND: Although BCG vaccination is recommended in most countries of the world, little is known of the persistence of BCG-induced immune responses. As novel TB vaccines may be given to boost the immunity induced by neonatal BCG vaccination, evidence ...

Early Clinical, Imaging, and Pathological Characteristics of SRPK3/TTN‐Digenic Myopathy

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective SRPK3/TTN‐digenic myopathy was recently established as a skeletal muscle myopathy caused by digenic inheritance. This study characterizes the early clinical presentation of SRPK3/TTN‐digenic myopathy in one previously reported and seven newly identified pediatric patients.

A Substrate–Product Switch Mathematical Model for the Growth Kinetics of Ethanol Metabolism from Longan Solid Waste Using Candida tropicalis

Agriculture
A substrate–product switch model was proposed to describe ethanol fermentation from longan solid waste using Candida tropicalis at an initial glucose and xylose ratio of 2 to 1. The model incorporated multiple rate equations for cell growth, sugar uptake,

An Intravesical Akkermansia muciniphila‐Based Chemo‐Immunotherapeutic Platform for Bladder Cancer

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Pasteurized Akkermansia muciniphila is engineered into an intravesical F127/doxorubicin platform that couples localized chemotherapy with immune remodeling. By inducing apoptosis, ferroptosis, and immunogenic cell death, this chemo‐immunotherapeutic system enhances dendritic‐cell maturation, antigen cross‐presentation, and tumor‐specific CD8+ T‐cell ...

Characterization of a human anti-tumoral NK cell population expanded after BCG treatment of leukocytes

OncoImmunology, 2017
Immunotherapy, via intra-vesical instillations of BCG, is the therapy of choice for patients with high-risk non-muscle invasive bladder cancer. The subsequent recruitment of lymphocytes and myeloid cells, as well as the release of cytokines and ...

Adquisición de señales balistocardiográficas con Arduino

Revista de Investigaciones en Energía, Medio Ambiente y Tecnología, 2022
The noninvasive Balistocardiogram (BCG) signal is the recording of body movements due to heartbeat and blood flow through major arteries. This signal provides enough information to calculate the heart rate and its variations over time.
