in this study, in order to facilitate and accelerate the production of eukaryotic protein alpha 1-antitrypsin (aat) with correct post-translational modifications, a protein production system based on the transduction of cho and cos-7 cells using lentiviral vectors was developed. human aat cdna was cloned into a replication-defective lentiviral vector. the transgene aat-jred chimer was transferr...

conclusions this case showed the effect of additional anakinra on children with fmf who were colchicine resistant. case presentation herein was reported a colchicine non-responsive patient with accurate diagnosis and early treatment of fmf. she had presented with recurrent and persistent acute abdominal pain attacks and several abdominal surgeries. addition of recombinant interleukin-1 receptor...

background : ruptured cerebral aneurysms (icas) are the most common non-traumatic cause of subarachnoid hemorrhage (sah) that is associated with life threatening complications such as vasospasm, infarction, and hydrocephalus (hcp). the active participation of macrophage/monocyte-mediated inflammatory response in the pathogenesis of cerebral aneurysm as labeled with monocyte chemoattractantprote...

background: most of the cardiovascular diseases can be prevented by doing regular physical exercises and using herbal supplements.the present study is aimed at assessing ginger supplement and high?intensity interval training (hiit) on inflammatory indices contributing to atherosclerosis in overweight women. materials and methods: the present study is a randomized, experimental,and controlled on...

conclusions the established method has an acceptable performance in quantifying yb-1. in addition, serum yb-1 may aid in the diagnosis of hcc. results the developed method was linear to 150 μg/l of yb-1 with a minimum detection limit of 0.01 μg/l. the average recoveries were between 93.9% and 109.0%. the mean intra- and inter-assay coefficients of variation (cvs) were 4.0-4.8% and 8.2-10.2%, re...

hit' protein profile. of different species and strains of nocardia (n.) were compared by using sixlium dodecyl sulphate - polyacryuimidc gel electrophoresis (sds-1'age) of cytoplasmic extract. in the present study n. asteroides, n. hrasilicnsis and n. otitidiscaviartim were examined. it was found that protein profiles

background: melon (cucumis melo) allergy is one of the most common food allergies, characterized by oral allergy syndrome. to date, two allergen molecules, cuc m 1 and cuc m 2, have been fully characterized in melon pulp, but there are few reports about the molecular characteristics of cuc m 3. methods:the cuc m 3 cdna has been characterized by rapid amplification of cdna ends (race), which rev...

objective(s)lupus nephritis (ln) is frequently associated with a poor long-term prognosis. renal biopsy is the diagnostic method of choice in this condition. urine biomarkers have been mentioned in the diagnosis of ln. the study,s purpose was to evaluate the performance of urinary monocyte chemoattractant protein 1(umcp-1) as a biomarker of renal involvement in systemic lupus erythematosus.mate...
