conclusions based on our study, in vivo prepared e/sa may be considered as a good candidate for animal immunization. results our results showed that the serum levels of anti-e/sa immunoglobulins significantly increased in all of the immunized groups. the differences of the serum levels of tgf-β between the groups were statistically significant at days 28 and 56 after immunization with e/sa. bac...

excretory/secretory antigen was prepared by culturing live adult worms of haemonchus contortus in rpmi 1640 medium at a concentration of 50 worms per ml in a culture-flask at 37 ˚c for 24 hr and the culture supernatant was used as antigen. the e/s antigen was purified by thiol-sepharose affinity chromatography. on western blot analysis, it was demonstrated that thiol-purified antigen showed a s...

background: women with polycystic ovary syndrome have lower pregnancy rates, possibly due to the decreased uterine  receptivity.successful implantation depends on protein networks that are essential for cross-talk between the embryo and endometrium.apolipoprotein a1 has been proposed as a putative anti-implantation factor. in this study, we evaluated apolipoprotein a1 expression in human endome...

background : immunological response of host and parasite play a key role in developing vaccina­tion and immunization. the present study deals with the immune response and effecter mechanism, which was confirmed by migration inhibition factor (mif).  methods : the present work was conducted in parasitological lab of postgraduate department of zool­ogy, government holkar science college, indore (...

Normal colonic epithelial cells play an important part in the mucosal immune system and use butyrate, a bacterial fermentation product, as an important energy source. Butyrate deficiency has been associated with inflammatory bowel disease, diversion colitis, and pseudomembranous colitis. Butyrate effects on important molecules for epithelial immune functions were studied in a colonic epithelial...
