Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells are considered as the most commonly used host for industrial manufacturing of therapeutic proteins. The aim of this study was to evaluate the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of hygromycin B in both CHO-DG44 and CHO-S cells since hygromycin B resistance cassette can be used for future selection of gene expression in CHO cells. The minimum inhibitory conce...

Background: Cholesterol oxidase (CHO) has various clinical and industrial applications. Recently, microbial CHO have received a great attention for their wide usage in medicine. Here, taxonomic characterizations of isolated strain from soil, optimization of the conditions for CHO production and biochemical characterizations of produced CHO enzyme were described. Finally, CHO gene was cloned int...

We present the first implementation of the Cho–Faddeev–Niemi decomposition of the SU(2) Yang-Mills field on a lattice. Our construction retains the color symmetry (global SU(2) gauge invariance) even after a new type of Maximally Abelian gauge, as explicitly demonstrated by numerical simulations. Moreover, we propose a gauge-invariant definition of the magnetic monopole current using this formu...

Background: Radio-adaptive response and bystander effects are known phenomena occurring in cells following exposure to ionizing radiation (IR). In this study we examined possible radio-adaptation of lymphocytes following bystander effects induced by CHO-K1 cells. Materials and Methods: Whole blood and CHO-K1 cells were cultured in RPMI-1640 complete medium. Cells were separately irradiated with...

Background: The critical role of interleukin-7 (IL-7) in homeostatic proliferation and T cell survival has made it a promising cytokine for the treatment of various clinical conditions, especially those associated with lymphopenia. Methods: In the present study we expressed recombinant human interleukin-7 (rhIL-7) in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO)-K1 cells. CHO-K1 cells were stably transfected ...

background: ifn-g is mostly secreted by activated cd4+ , cd8+ t cells and nk cells. this cytokine has immunomodulatory, anti-cancer and anti-microbial effects and is important for prophylaxis, diagnosis and treatment of chronic infections and cancers. objective: the purpose of this study was to clone the full cdna of human ifn-g and express it in cho cell line. methods: lymphocytes from a healt...
