New Perspectives in Tolerance Induction for Vascularized Composite Allotransplantation
Although transplantation of Vascularized Composite Allografts (VCA) has become a clinical reality, complications resulting from long-term immunosuppression remain major barriers to broader indication. Ideally, induction of tolerance has been considered the Holy Grail in both solid organ and VCA transplantation. Recent advances in immunomodulatory medication and cell-based therapy exploiting don...
متن کاملStructural basis for the binding of the neutralizing antibody, 7D11, to the poxvirus L1 protein.
Medical countermeasures to prevent or treat smallpox are needed due to the potential use of poxviruses as biological weapons. Safety concerns with the currently available smallpox vaccine indicate a need for research on alternative poxvirus vaccine strategies. Molecular vaccines involving the use of proteins and/or genes and recombinant antibodies are among the strategies under current investig...
متن کاملMyxoma virus in the European rabbit: interactions between the virus and its susceptible host.
Myxoma virus (MV) is a poxvirus that evolved in Sylvilagus lagomorphs, and is the causative agent of myxomatosis in European rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus). This virus is not a natural pathogen of O. cuniculus, yet is able to subvert the host rabbit immune system defenses and cause a highly lethal systemic infection. The interaction of MV proteins and the rabbit immune system has been an ideal...
متن کاملListening Pre-tasks in Motivational and Cognitive Strategies Instruction and Quality of Subjective Experience: EFL Learners’ Perspectives
EFL learners may advocate the desire to have a fulfilling experience while doing tasks rather than focus solely on finishing them. However, learners' perspectives have been virtually ignored in the classroom task implementation. Thus, the current study attempted to explore the perceptions of Iranian EFL learners towards listening pre-tasks in motivational and cognitive strategies instruction a...
متن کاملSecreted poxvirus chemokine binding proteins.
Poxviruses encode a variety of immunomodulatory proteins that subvert the cytokine networks of infected hosts. Myxoma virus, a poxvirus pathogen of rabbits, expresses two distinct 35- to 40-kDa secreted glycoproteins that bind a broad spectrum of chemokines. The first of these, designated M-T7, is encoded by the T7 gene and is the first example of what is here referred to as type-I chemokine bi...
