To develop efficient applications of monoclonal antibodies for therapeutic purposes, stereospecific recognition of the target antigens is needed. DNA immunization is one of the best methods for sensitizing B lymphocytes that can produce conformation-...
MHC class I molecules display intracellular peptides on cell surfaces to enable immune surveillance under pathological conditions. The source of MHC class I antigens responsible for cancer protection is not fully understood. Here, we explored the MHC...
The abscopal effect (AbE) is defined as radiation-induced shrinkage of distant, non-treated, neoplastic lesions and it is considered the best clinical picture of the efficient immune stimulation by irradiation. The first report about abscopal tumor r...
Existing tools (including GeneXpert) for diagnosis of multidrug resistant TB (MDR-TB) have limited utility when sputum samples for microbiological analyses cannot be obtained. There is the need for immunological biomarkers which could serve as putati...
Apolipoprotein E (APOE) has three different isoforms, with APOE4 carriers representing a major risk factor for the development of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). AD is the most common form of dementia, and is a relentlessly progressive disorder that afflic...
IgG4-related disease (IgG4-RD) is a fibro-inflammatory disease characterized by elevated serum IgG4 levels and massive infiltration of IgG4+plasma cells. Although storiform fibrosis, obliterative phlebitis and IgG4+plasma cell infiltration are well d...
Industrial hemp (Cannabis sativa L.) has many applications, including the production of textiles, agricultural extracts, nutritional products, and botanicals enriched with cannabinoids and full-spectrum terpenes naturally present in the plant. In thi...
Leukocyte subtypes can be used to evaluate the severity of ulcerative colitis (UC). In this study, we examined the relationship between the lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio (LMR) and the Mayo endoscopic score (MES) in assessing endoscopic activity in UC....
Infective endocarditis in the setting of acute stroke poses a clinical challenge given the high mortality and morbidity associated with the condition. The pathophysiological mechanisms including clinical and imaging biomarkers that can provide insigh...
Peptidases generate bioactive peptides that can regulate cell signaling and mediate intercellular communication. While the processing of peptide precursors is initiated intracellularly, some modifications by peptidases may be conducted extracellularl...
