The importance of serological assays in diagnosing acute pulmonary histoplasmosis [PDF]

, 2009
Histoplasmosis is a systemic mycosis caused by inhalation of Histoplasma capsulatum microconidia. The disease does not normally affect immunocompetent individuals after a single, transient inhalation exposure.

Isolation and partial characterization of two porcine spleen ferritin fractions with different electrophoretic mobility [PDF]

, 1996
Ferritin isolated from porcine spleen could routinely be separated in two fractions on nondenaturating gradient gels. Both fractions could be isolated with a purity of 96% when applied to two serially linked columns, each 200 cm in length, packed ...

The CM-proteins from cereal endosperm: Immunochemical relationships [PDF]

, 1983
The CM-proteins, which are salt-soluble proteins that can be extracted with chloroform: methanol (2: 1, v/v), seem to be present in the endosperm of all the cereal species investigated.

Recombinant plants provide a new approach to the production of bacterial polysaccharide for vaccines [PDF]

, 2014
Bacterial polysaccharides have numerous clinical or industrial uses. Recombinant plants could offer the possibility of producing bacterial polysaccharides on a large scale and free of contaminating bacterial toxins and antigens.

Increasing the length and hydrophobicity of the C‐terminal sequence of transthyretin strengthens its binding affinity to retinol binding protein

FEBS Open Bio, Volume 7, Issue 12, Page 1891-1898, December 2017., 2017
Transthyretin (TTR) transports retinol via binding with retinol binding protein (RBP). We constructed chimeric TTRs and determined their binding affinities with human RBP using chemiluminescence immunoblotting. Our results show that increasing the length and hydrophobicity of the C‐terminal sequence of TTR strengthened its binding affinity for RBP ...

Relation of hyperlipidemia in serum and loss of high density lipoproteins in urine in the nephrotic syndrome [PDF]

, 1987
The mechanism leading to hyperlipidemia in the nephrotic syndrome is not fully understood but may be related in part to loss of high density lipoproteins in the urine of patients with nephrosis.

Clinical Manifestations and Myositis‐Specific Autoantibodies Associated with Physical Dysfunction after Treatment in Polymyositis and Dermatomyositis: An Observational Study of Physical Dysfunction with Myositis in Japan

BioMed Research International, Volume 2016, Issue 1, 2016., 2016
Objective. The physical function of PM/DM patients after remission induction therapy remains unknown adequately. The aim of our study was to evaluate the present status of physical dysfunction and to clarify the clinical manifestations and myositis‐specific autoantibodies (MSAs) associated with physical dysfunction after treatment in PM/DM. Methods. We

Development of an Immunochromatographic Test Strip for Detection of Cholera Toxin

BioMed Research International, Volume 2013, Issue 1, 2013., 2013
Because cholera toxin (CT) is responsible for most of the symptoms induced by Vibrio cholerae infection, detection of CT is critical for diagnosis of the disease. In this study, we constructed an immunochromatographic test strip for detection of CT (CT‐IC) with polyclonal antibodies developed against purified recombinant whole CT protein. The detection

Monoclonal antibodies against human astrocytomas and their reactivity pattern [PDF]

, 1987
The establishment of hybridomas after fusion of X63-Ag8.653 mouse myeloma cells and splenocytes from mice hyperimmunized against human astrocytomas is presented. The animals were primed with 5 × 106 chemically modified uncultured or cultured glioma cells.
