Objective(s):Tumor-associated antigen (TAA) subunit-based vaccines constitute promising tools for anticancer immunotherapy. However, a major limitation in the development of such vaccines is the poor immunogenicity of peptides when used alone.The aim of this study was to develop an efficient vaccine delivery system and adjuvant to enhance anti-tumor activity of a synthetic HER2/neu derived pept...

background: noradrenaline (na), the principal neurotransmitter released from sympathetic nerve terminals, influences t-cell maturation, not only directly in developing t cells, but also indirectly, by acting on the thymic nonlymphoid cells. in vitro and in vivo studies have demonstrated the anti-proliferative, anti-migratory, antiangiogenic and cytotoxic properties of propranolol, β-ar blocker,...

methanolic extract of solanum trilobatum linn. (mest) belonging to the family of solanacea was evaluated by hot plate and acetic acid induced writhing methods to assess its analgesic activity. the extract was also evaluated for its anti-inflammatory activity by subjecting into carrageenan, and cotton pellet induced granuloma tests for its effect on acute and chronic phase inflammation models in...

the chemical composition of the essential oils of flower at the pre-flowering, full-flowering and post-flowering stage of a. annua was analyzed by gc and gc/ms and sixty-two components were identified. the main compounds in the pre-flowering oil were β-myrcene (37.71%), 1, 8-cineole (16.11%) and camphor (14.97%). the full-flowering oil contained predominantly caryophyllene (19.4%), germacrene d...
