Nine Ag(I) complexes of Schiff bases containing thiophene, furan, and pyridine moieties were synthesized and tested for their in vitro antibacterial, antioxidant, and anticancer activities and DNA/bovine serum albumin binding. The nine Ag(I) complexes bound to calf thymus‐DNA by an intercalative binding mode, with the complex bearing a benzothiazole ...

Hemopoiesis in the Thymus [PDF]
The presence in the thymus of hemopoietic cells other than thymocytes has been known for many years, but the extent of the hemopoietic activity of the thymus and the possible functional implications have only recently begun to receive much attention. This review summarizes the literature in this field, especially in the light of current cytokine and ...

The influence of T cell development on pathogen specificity and autoreactivity [PDF]
T cells orchestrate adaptive immune responses upon activation. T cell activation requires sufficiently strong binding of T cell receptors on their surface to short peptides derived from foreign proteins bound to protein products of the major histocompatibility (MHC) gene products, which are displayed on the surface of antigen presenting cells.
