Combination of the immunization with the sequence close to the consensus sequence and two DNA prime plus one VLP boost generate H5 hemagglutinin specific broad neutralizing antibodies. [PDF]
Hemagglutinin (HA) head has long been considered to be able to elicit only a narrow, strain-specific antibody response as it undergoes rapid antigenic drift.

AN ELECTROPHORETIC STUDY OF IMMUNE SERA AND PURIFIED ANTIBODY PREPARATIONS [PDF]
1. Antibody produced in the horse migrates as a new serum component between the ß and γ components, whereas rabbit antibody is electrophoretically identical with the γ globulin component of the serum. 2. In rabbit and monkey antisera the percentage of antibody in the serum and in the γ globulin fraction can be determined by integration ...

Brucella NyxA and NyxB dimerization enhances effector function during infection
Brucella abortus thrives inside cells thanks to the translocation of effector proteins that fine‐tune cellular functions. NyxA and NyxB are two effectors that destabilize the nucleolar localization of their host target, SENP3. We show that the Nyx proteins directly interact with each other and that their dimerization is essential for their function ...

Cytokine expression in malaria-infected non-human primate placentas [PDF]
Malaria parasites are known to mediate the induction of inflammatory immune responses at the maternal-foetal interface during placental malaria (PM) leading to adverse consequences like pre-term deliveries and abortions.

B cells sense external mechanical forces and convert them into biochemical signals through mechanotransduction. Understanding how malignant B cells respond to physical stimuli represents a groundbreaking area of research. This review examines the key mechano‐related molecules and pathways in B lymphocytes, highlights the most relevant techniques to ...

DIFFERENTIAL CROSS-NEUTRALIZATION OF DENGUE IMMUNE SERA AGAINST ZIKA VIRUS
Intro: Zika virus (ZIKV) is transmitted to humans primarily via the bites of infected female Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus. The mosquitoes are also the vector for the transmission of dengue viruses. Malaysia is a dengue hyperendemic country. To date,

Glutaredoxin (Grx) 3 proteins contain a thioredoxin domain and one to three class II Grx domains. These proteins play a crucial role in iron homeostasis in eukaryotic cells. In human Grx3, at least one of the two Grx domains, together with the thioredoxin domain, is essential for its function in iron metabolism.
