Using quantitative glycome profiling of breast tumor interstitial fluid and matched serum, we identified N‐glycan pattern that (a) segregates tumor and normal interstitual fluids, (b) correlates with the presence of immune cells within tumor, (c) can be predictive for overall survival outcome of patients with breast cancer, and (d) can be detected in ...

Diagnosis and Treatment of Paracoccidioidomycosis in the Maxillofacial Region: A Report of 5 Cases
Paracoccidioidomycosis is a fungal infection initially described in Brazil in 1908 by Adolfo Lutz. Manifestation of this disease depends on numerous factors, such as microorganism virulence, hormonal profile, genetic predisposition, nutrition, and immune system.

Cancer Immunotherapy: Priming the Host Immune Response with Live Attenuated Salmonella enterica
In recent years, cancer immunotherapy has undergone great advances because of our understanding of the immune response and the mechanisms through which tumor cells evade it. A century after the first immunotherapy attempt based on bacterial products described by William Coley, the use of live attenuated bacterial vectors has become a promising ...

Background Paracoccidioides brasiliensis is a thermo-dimorphic fungus that causes paracoccidiodomycosis (PCM). Glycoprotein gp43 is the fungal main diagnostic antigen, which can also protect against murine PCM and interact with extracellular matrix ...

Paracoccidioides Spp.: Virulence Factors and Immune‐Evasion Strategies
Paracoccidioides spp. are dimorphic fungal pathogens responsible for one of the most relevant systemic mycoses in Latin America, paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM). Their exact ecological niche remains unknown; however, they have been isolated from soil samples and armadillos (Dasypus novemcinctus), which have been proposed as animal reservoir for these ...

Paracoccidioides cerebriformis Moore, 1935. MYCOLOGIC AND IMMUNOCHEMICAL STUDY
The present study concern on mycologic and immunochemical data obtained from two samples of a fungus considered as belonging to the species Paracoccidioides cerebriformis described by Moore in 1935, and maintained since then on Sabouraud’s agar in the ...

ABSTRACT gp43 is the main diagnostic antigen for paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM). In vitro, gp43 expression in supernatant fluids of Paracoccidioides brasiliensis cultures can be unstable, and its regulation is poorly understood.

cDNA cloning and sequence analysis of the Xenopus laevis egg envelope glycoprotein gp43 [PDF]
The glycoproteins of the Xenopus laevis egg envelope function in fertilization and development. As the unfertilizable coelomic egg transits the pars recta region of the oviduct, it is converted to a fertilizable egg by limited proteolysis of the envelope glycoprotein gp43 to gp41.

Cinnamic Acid Is Partially Involved in Propolis Immunomodulatory Action on Human Monocytes
Propolis is a beehive product used in traditional medicine due to its biological properties. It shows a complex chemical composition including phenolics, such as cinnamic acid (Ci). The mechanisms of action of propolis have been the subject of research recently; however, the involvement of Ci on propolis activity was not investigated on immune cells ...
