IMMUNOLOGY OF TUBERCULOSIS [PDF]
MTB ranks as the first worldwide pathogen latently infecting one third of the population and the second leading cause of death from a single infectious agent, after the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). The development of vigorous and apparently appropriate immune response upon infection with M.tuberculosis in humans and experimental animals conflict

Immunologic incompetence of immunologically runted animals [PDF]
1. Adult (A x C57Bl/1)F1 hybrids regularly show runt disease when injected with adult spleen cells from A strain donors. This also occurs when A strain spleen cells are administered to adult C3H mice made tolerant of A strain tissue in the neonatal period. 2.

Modeling of endothelial cell dysfunction using human induced pluripotent stem cells derived from patients with end-stage renal disease [PDF]
Background Endothelial cell (EC) dysfunction is a frequent feature in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD). The aim of this study was to generate human induced pluripotent stem cells, differentiate ECs (hiPSC-ECs) from patients with ESRD, and ...

Human spermatozoa anti-proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 4 synthesis using New Zealand rabbit for novel immunocontraception in males [PDF]
Purpose: Proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 4 (PCSK4, a 54-kDa protease) is expressed in the plasma membrane of the acrosome in human spermatozoa. It plays a critical role in penetrating the zona pellucida. Synthesis of human anti-PCSK4 might be
