[ 1 ] - Expression of Basophil Activation Markers in Pediatric Asthma

Background: Asthma is very common in children and its diagnosis is based on clinical manifestations, which can be misdiagnosed as other respiratory diseases with similar signs and symptoms. Objective: To analyze the expression of ST2L and CD203c in the diagnosis of pediatric asthma. Methods: Basophils were purified from whole blood samples of patients and healthy controls using Ficol-Paque grad...

[ 2 ] - Production and Characterization of a Monoclonal Antibody against an Antigen on the Surface of Non-Small Cell Carcinoma of the Lung

Background: Lung carcinoma is a multiple type cancer comprising of small cell and non-small cell carcinomas (NSCLC). For therapeutic and diagnostic purposes, serum monoclonal antibodies have been produced against lung cancer. Objective: To charac-terize a murine monoclonal antibody (ME3D11) reactive with human NSCLC. Methods: A murine monoclonal antibody (ME3D11) reactive with human NSCLC was s...

[ 3 ] - Future role of vitamin C in radiation mitigation and its possible applications in manned deep space missions: survival study and the measurement of cell viability

Background: Astronauts will be exposed to both chronic space radiation and acute high doses of energetic radiation of solar particle events in long-term deep space missions. The application of radioprotectors in space missions has basic limitations such as their very short time window as well as their acute toxicity and considerable side effects. The aim of the present study was to investigate ...

[ 4 ] - ارزیابی ارزش تشخیصی ردیابی DNA آزاد جنینی در پلاسمای مادری جهت بررسی نارسایی های جنینی

در این مقاله سعی شده است جنبه های مختلف DNA آزاد جنینی در خون مادر از جمله منشا، اندازه و درصد آن در خون مادر بررسی شود. درصد کمی از DNAاستخراج شده از پلاسمای مادر منشا جنینی دارد که مهم ترین مانع در استفاده از DNA آزاد جنینی در خون مادر برای تشخیص قبل از زایمان است. پس از کشف DNA آزاد جنینی در خون مادر، محققان زیادی سعی در راه اندازی روش های دقیق استخراج و ردیابی DNA جنینی از پلاسمای مادر کرد...

[ 5 ] - ارزیابی اختلالات غشایی گلبول قرمز با استفاده از یک متد فلوسیتومتریک در جنوب ایران

تشخیص اختلالات غشایی گلبول قرمز بالاخص اسفیروسیتوز ارثی (HS) و اوا لوسیتوز ارثی جنوب شرقی آسیا (SAO) بر اساس تاریخچه کلینیکی، مورفولوژی گلبول قرمز و دیگر تست های روتین آزمایشگاهی مانند آزمایش شکنندگی اسمزی (OFT) می باشد. با این وجود، تشخیص این اختلالات در موارد خفیف به آسانی میسر نمی باشد. برای اسکرین اختلالات پروتئین های غشاء به همراه چند آنمی دیگر از رنگ ائوزین مالیماید (EMA) که به میزان ب...

[ 6 ] - Evaluation of Flow Cytometry and Kleihauer Techniques for Quantification of Fetomaternal Hemorrhage: A Prospective Cohort Study in Southwestern Iran

Background: Quantification of fetal red blood cells (RBCs) in maternal blood is of great importance to calculate appropriate dose of post-deliver anti D immunoglobulin in a rhesus D (RhD)-negative woman. Objective: The aim of this study is to evaluate a direct immunofluorescence flow cytometry technique in artificial and clinical samples and compared it t...

[ 7 ] - How can we enhance the value of laboratory tests?

Today, the pressures on the healthcare systems for the controlling of the costs are extreme and all sectors try to demonstrate the value of their services by justifying the activities and expenditures so the value can be describe in terms like quality, efficiency, effectiveness, patient satisfaction, cost effectiveness .The value of the lab testing is generally directed to their costs and the c...

[ 8 ] - Fetal RHD Genotyping Using Real-Time Polymerase Chain Reaction Analysis of Cell-Free Fetal DNA in Pregnancy of RhD Negative Women in South of Iran

Objective Maternal-fetal RhD antigen incompatibility causes approximately 50% of clinically significant alloimmunization cases. The routine use of prophylactic anti-D immunoglobulin has dramatically reduced hemolytic disease of the fetus and newborn. Recently, fetal RHD genotyping in RhD negative pregnant women has been suggested for appropriate use of anti-D immunoglobulin antenatal prophylaxi...
