Interpretation of immunofluorescence slides by deep learning techniques: anti-nuclear antibodies case study [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Nowadays, diseases are increasing in numbers and severity by the hour. Immunity diseases, affecting 8\% of the world population in 2017 according to the World Health Organization (WHO), is a field in medicine worth attention due to the high rate of disease occurrence classified under this category.

Clustering and Retrieval Method of Immunological Memory Cell in Clonal Selection Algorithm [PDF]
, 2018 The clonal selection principle explains the basic features of an adaptive immune response to a antigenic stimulus. It established the idea that only those cells that recognize the antigens are selected to proliferate and differentiate. This paper explains a computational implementation of the clonal selection principle that explicitly takes into ...

Computational strategies for dissecting the high-dimensional complexity of adaptive immune repertoires [PDF]
, 2017 The adaptive immune system recognizes antigens via an immense array of antigen-binding antibodies and T-cell receptors, the immune repertoire. The interrogation of immune repertoires is of high relevance for understanding the adaptive immune response in disease and infection (e.g., autoimmunity, cancer, HIV).

Marchuk's models of infection diseases: new developments [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 We consider mathematical models of infection diseases built by G.I. Marchuk in his well known book on immunology. These models are in the form of systems of ordinary delay differential equations. We add a distributed control in one of the equations describing the dynamics of the antibody concentration rate.

Hegemonic structure of basic, clinical and patented knowledge on Ebola research: a US army reductionist initiative [PDF]
Journal of Translational Medicine (2015) 13:124, 2016 Background: In this paper, we present an approach to understand how the basic, clinical and patent knowledge on Ebola is organized and intercommunicated and what leading factor could be shaping the evolution of the knowledge translation process for this disease.

Celiac Disease: An Immunological Jigsaw [PDF]
Immunity, 2012 Celiac disease (CD) is a chronic enteropathy induced by dietary gluten in genetically predisposed people. The keystone of CD pathogenesis is an adaptive immune response orchestrated by the interplay between gluten and MHC class II HLA-DQ2 and DQ8 molecules.

Immunology of Infectious Diseases
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2002 Whether an infectious disease agent is an “old acquaintance” or a new, emerging threat, the immune system’s battle against it is usually the first line of defense it encounters. With vaccines and effective treatments often unavailable, the immune system’s efforts to eradicate infectious agents or infected cells are frequently the only means to combat ...

Unraveling the Link between Periodontitis and Inflammatory Bowel Disease: Challenges and Outlook [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Periodontitis and Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) are chronic inflammatory conditions, characterized by microbial dysbiosis and hyper-immunoinflammatory responses. Growing evidence suggest an interconnection between periodontitis and IBD, implying a shift from the traditional concept of independent diseases to a complex, reciprocal cycle.

Pattern Analysis of Tandem Repeats in Nlrp1 [PDF]
arXiv, 2013 Pattern analysis of tandem repeats in gene is an indispensable computational approach to the understanding of the gene expression and pathogenesis of diseases. This research applied a computational motif model and database techniques to study the distribution of tandem repeats in Nlrp1 gene, which is a critical gene to detect the invading pathogens in ...

Acta medica portuguesa, 1981 There appears to be strong evidence to suggest that the liver plays an important role in the normally functioning immune system and in disorders involving damage to the liver disturbances in the immunological parameters are frequently found. In the light of our current knowledge, however, it is not clear whether these disturbances occur secondary to ...
