Evidence-Based Complementary and Alternative Medicine, Volume 7, Issue 1, Page 57-62, 2010., 2010 A crude acetone extract of the pit of date palm (Phoenix dactylifera L.) was prepared and its antiviral activity evaluated against lytic Pseudomonas phage ATCC 14209‐B1, using Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC 25668 as the host cell. The antiviral activity of date pits was found to be mediated by binding to the phage, with minimum inhibitory concentration ...

Infectious Diseases in Obstetrics and Gynecology, Volume 2007, Issue 1, 2007., 2007 Objective. To evaluate the safety of the antimicrobial peptide, lactocin 160. Methods. Lactocin 160, a product of vaginal probiotic Lactobacillus rhamnosus 160 was evaluated for toxicity and irritation. An in vitro human organotypic vaginal‐ectocervical tissue model (EpiVaginal) was employed for the safety testing by determining the exposure time to ...

FEBS Letters, 1982 Pokeweed antiviral protein (PAP) is a protein known to inactivate eukaryotic ribosomes by an unknown enzymatic action and inhibit the production of mammalian viruses in tissue culture. This protein was subjected to a variety of chemical modifications to determine their effects upon ribosomal inactivation, antiviral action, and cytotoxicity.

International Journal of Microbiology, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.Bioactive peptides (BAPs) obtained from plants and microbes have been thoroughly explored and studied due to their prophylactic properties. The use of BAPs seems to be a promising substitute for several currently available antibiotics because of their antimicrobial properties against foodborne pathogens.

Immunology and Homeopathy. 2. Cells of the Immune System and Inflammation
Evidence-Based Complementary and Alternative Medicine, Volume 3, Issue 1, Page 13-24, 2006., 2006 Here we describe the results of some experimental laboratory studies aimed at verifying the efficacy of high dilutions of substances and of homeopathic medicines in models of inflammation and immunity. Studies carried out on basophils, lymphocytes, granulocytes and fibroblasts are reviewed. This approach may help to test under controlled conditions the

Broad-spectrum virus resistance in transgenic plants expressing pokeweed antiviral protein. [PDF]
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A, 1993 Exogenous application of pokeweed antiviral protein (PAP), a ribosome-inhibiting protein found in the cell walls of Phytolacca americana (pokeweed), protects heterologous plants from viral infection. A cDNA clone for PAP was isolated and introduced into tobacco and potato plants by transformation with Agrobacterium tumefaciens.

Expression of a pokeweed antiviral protein in Escherichia coli and its characterization [PDF]
FEBS Letters, 1993 Two expression vectors were constructed to produce a putative mature α‐pokeweed antiviral protein (α‐PAP) in Escherichia coli with its NH2‐ and COOH‐terminal extrapeptides excised. One was for its intracellular expression with a methionine at its NH2‐terminal. The other was for its secretion using an ompA signal peptide. The former product was purified

Monoclonal Antibodies as Immune Modulators for Cancer Therapy
Canadian Journal of Infectious Diseases and Medical Microbiology, Volume 3, Issue B, Page 20-25, 1992., 1992 Monoclonal antibodies may modulate immune and/or biological responses alone, or as carriers of specific agents. Monoclonal antibodies directed against tumours may be indirectly cytotoxic by modulation of antibody‐dependent, cell‐mediated cytotoxicity or complement‐mediated cytotoxicity.
