basic research on the autoimmune disease multiple sclerosis has been performed mainly on its animal model namely experimental allergic encephalomyelitis. there are many different approaches established to get this model. despite the existence of many references in literature in this regard, we have been faced with many difficulties generating the model suitable for studying different therapies....

results primary, secondary, and 3d structure of cchfv gn were obtained and pcr reaction with m13 forward and reverse primers confirmed the generation of recombinant bacmid dna harboring gn coding region under polyhedron promoter. conclusions characterization of the detailed structure of cchfv gn by bioinformatics software provides the basis for development of new experiments and construction of...

conclusions the comprehensive analysis of a protein with important roles has never been easy, and in case of e2 envelope glycoprotein of hgv, there is no much data on its molecular and immunological features, clinical significance and its pathogenic potential in hepatitis or any other gbv-c related diseases. so, results of the present study may explain some structural, physiological and immunol...

conclusions verapamil and rifampin were found specific and effective against p-gp expression in hcc. in conclusion, treatment efficacy of most anticancer drugs is increased in combination with verapamil and rifampin against most advanced hcc. objectives the aim of this study was to elucidate the effect of potent carcinogen nitrosamine with and without verapamil and rifampin drugs on p-gp expres...

We use a glass box approach based on decision trees to understand glycoprotein binding with biomedical polymers.

introduction: in order to determine the multidrug resistance (mdr) phenotype due to p-glycoprotein expression in haematological malignancies including acute myeloblastic leukemia (aml), a well-characterized p-gp expressing cell line was required to validate and standardize flow cytometric assays and to calibrate instruments. therefore, this resistant subline of k562 was established for the firs...

glanzmann’s thrombasthenia (gt) is an autosomal recessive inherited platelet function defect characterized by normal platelet count, prolonged bleeding time and abnormal clot retraction. this disease typically presents in infancy or early childhood and has proven to have very good prognosis. in this case study, a 22‑year‑old gt patient who also developed human immunodeficiency virus (hiv) infec...

Atomistic glycoprotein simulations reveal a site-specific availability of glycan substrates in time-resolved mass spectrometry maturating enzyme kinetics.

background and aims: herpes simplex virus type 1 (hsv1) remains a potentially serious health problem world wide. all infected people, including asymptomatic ones, are potential sources for virus transmission. virus envelope contains at least 13 glycoproteins, which glycoprotein d is the major target of immune responses. the aim of this study was development of a specific method that is a more r...
