Immunity to Plasmodium knowlesi H strain malaria in olive baboons [PDF]
Int. J. Integ. Biol. Volume 10, Issue No. 3: 147 -- 152 (2010), 2012 Malaria disease is a major global health and economic development threat. It results in approximately 2.7 million deaths annually. There is currently no vaccine that has been licensed for use against malaria. Studies in animal models, especially non-human primates can lead to the revelation of possible immunological mechanisms that can lead to ...

Advanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.Lanthanide‐based luminescence nanothermometry holds multifaceted potential for nanomedical applications, yet despite significant research advances, clinical translation of the engineered nanomaterials is still controversial and widely disputed. This is related to crucial nanotoxicological aspects that must be addressed at the preclinical level ...

A computational study of the statistical mechanics of antibody-antigen conformations [PDF]
arXiv, 2004 We describe the representation of the chemical affinity between the antigen-combining site of the immunoglobulin molecule and the antigen molecule as the probability of the two molecules existing in a bound state. Our model is based on the identification of shape attractors in the configuration space for the joint antibody / antigen combining site ...

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.Therapeutic effect of natural products on chicken coccidiosis. Abstract The intestinal tract is the main place for animals to digest food and absorb nutrients, which also serves as the first line of defense against pathogens that invade the internal environment.

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.Objective Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is a rare but severe autoimmune disease characterized by immune dysregulation, fibrosis, and vasculopathy. Although previous studies have highlighted the presence of functional autoantibodies targeting the angiotensin II receptor type 1 (AT1) and endothelin‐1 type A receptor (ETAR), leading to autoantibody‐mediated ...

Energetic frustrations in protein folding at residue resolution: a simulation study of homologous immunoglobulin-like \b{eta}-sandwich proteins [PDF]
arXiv, 2017 Nonnative residual interactions have attracted increasing attention in recent protein folding researches. Experimental and theoretical investigations had been set out to catch nonnative contacts that might dominate key events in protein folding. However, energetic frustrations caused by nonnative inter-residue interactions are not systematically ...

An Investigation into Outlier Elimination and Calculation Methods in the Determination of Reference Intervals using Serum Immunoglobulin A as a Model Data Collection [PDF]
arXiv, 2019 Background: Reference intervals are essential to interpret diagnostic tests, but their determination has become controversial. Methods: In this paper parametric, non-parametric and robust reference intervals with Tukey and block elimination are calculated from a dataset of over 32,000 serum immunoglobulin A (IgA) measurements.

Engineering antibodies with cancer‐associated binding sites
BMEMat, EarlyView.This review describes antibodies that perform direct/indirect roles in cancer treatment by binding to effective targets and discusses how antibodies kill tumors and modulate tumor microenvironment through these targets. The classification of expression systems for antibody production is summarized to guide appropriate selection based on different ...

Cancer Communications, EarlyView.Abstract Background Glioblastoma (GBM) is largely refractory to antibodies against programmed cell death 1 (anti‐PD‐1) therapy. Fully understanding the cellular heterogeneity and immune adaptations in response to anti‐PD‐1 therapy is necessary to design more effective immunotherapies for GBM.
