Recently, we reported five Japanese patients with large B-cell lymphoma associated with hemophagocytic syndrome, ie, malignant histiocytosis-like B-cell lymphoma, and suggested that they might be regarded as an aggressive variant of intravascular lymphomatosis (IVL) based on the localization of tumor cells within the sinus and vessels of the involved organs.1 Phenotypically, these lymphomas wer...

following the occurrence of two large outbreaks in gilan province, northern iran, the public health importance of human fascioliasis has increased significantly. the mixed infections of fasciola gigantica and f. hepatica within a given domestic animal individual suggest a very complicate picture of possible circulation ways of the parasite and the possibility for humans to be infected with both...

background: the aim of this study was to compare superoxide dismutase (sod) activity in fasciola hepatica and fasciola gigantica parasites. materials: f. gigantica and f. hepatica helminths were collected from abattoir and cultured in buffer media for 4 h at 37 °c. excretory-secretory (es) products were collected, centrifuged and stored at - 20 ◦ c. e-s protein concentration was measured by bra...

introduction: to determine an indicator for triclabendazole (tcbz) efficacy, alanine aminotransferase (alt) activity in fasciola hepatica (iranian isolate) parasite in presence and absence of tcbz was evaluated by an in vitro cultivation method. also, alt enzyme activity between none and parasitized-infected sheep liver tissues was assessed. method:  the sheep livers were collected and transfer...

With the advent of the Internet it is now possible to collect hundreds of millions of images. These images come with varying degrees of label information. “Clean labels” can be manually obtained on a small fraction, “noisy labels” may be extracted automatically from surrounding text, while for most images there are no labels at all. Semi-supervised learning is a principled framework for combini...

glutathione s-transferase (gst) represents the major class of detoxification enzymes from helminth parasites such as fasciola hepatica and f. gigantica and it is a candidate for chemotherapeutic and vaccine design. therefore, gst enzyme of fasciola spp. could be a target for evaluation of drugs such as triclabendazole (c14h9cl3n2os). for this purpose, gst enzymes were purified from fasciola spp...
