Pre‐Seasonal Treatment With Recombinant Carrier‐Based Birch Vaccine Improves Birch Pollen Allergy
Allergy, EarlyView.We conducted a two stage SCIT trial with GNR‐127 containing a recombinant fusion protein consisting of Bet v 1 and Mal d 1‐derived peptides fused to PreS from HBV. Stage 1 identified two safe maximum tolerated doses (40 μg and 80 μg). In the following Stage 2, five preseasonal injections were well tolerated, induced dose‐dependent allergen‐specific IgG,

Alimentary Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.The HLA‐A*11:01 allele is associated with persistent viraemia and advanced liver fibrosis in HDV infection. HLA‐A*11:01 carriers exhibit a reduced T‐cell repertoire, suggesting a narrower T‐cell response to the infection. ABSTRACT Background Hepatitis delta virus (HDV) infection causes the most severe form of viral hepatitis, with highly heterogeneous ...

HBsAg Quantification in Clinical Practice [PDF]
Journal of Clinical and Experimental Hepatology, 2012 Several standardized commercial assays for quantification of hepatitis B surface antigen (qHBsAg) are now available. Studies on HBsAg kinetics from Asia and Europe have demonstrated that HBsAg levels are highest during the immune-tolerant phase, become lower during immune-clearance phase and are the lowest in hepatitis B 'e' antigen (HBeAg)-negative ...
