چکیده

Methods are described for the preparation of cell-wall material and flagella from Vibrio fetus. In common with certain other Gram-negative organisms V. fetus apparently possesses a three-layer wall which, it is proposed, consists of an outer lipoprotein layer, a middle lipo-polysaccharide layer, and an inner mucopeptide layer. These layers were studied chemically and by electron microscopy after various extraction and enzymic degradation procedures with whole-wall material. None of the layers of the wall was found to possess a microscopically discernible substructure, although the extracted lipopolysaccharide agglomerated into a characteristic stringy array. The probable function, contribution to cellular rigidity, and composition of the wall layers is discussed.

Preparation and characterization of a novel nanobody against T-cell immunoglobulin and mucin-3 (TIM-3)

Objective(s): As T-cell immunoglobulin and mucin domain 3 (TIM-3) is an immune regulatory molecule; its blocking or stimulating could alter the pattern of immune response towards a desired condition. Based on the unique features of nanobodies, we aimed to construct an anti-TIM-3 nanobody as an appropriate tool for manipulating immune responses for future therapeutic purposes. Materials and Meth...

Preparation and in-vitro characterization of alginate microspheres incorporating leptospiral antigens as a delivery system and adjuvant

Leptospirosis is one of the most prevalent zoonotic diseases worldwide. Currently, multivalent whole-cell leptospiral vaccines can induce protection against leptospirosis. Therefore, preparation and formulation of new generations of vaccines that can stimulate long-term immunity for leptospirosis control are essential. The aim of this study was to prepare and characterize alginate microspheres ...
