(2016)
Introduction: Paraneoplastic pemphigus is an autoimmune disease associated with an underlying tumor. Several cases have been reported as unusual pemphigus vulgaris, erythema multiforme, or paraneoplastic bullous disease,1 ...
Cell-Peptide Specific Interaction Can Inhibit Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv Infection
Studying proteins from the M. tuberculosis H37Rv envelop is important for understanding host-pathogen interaction regarding bacterial infection and survival within a host; such knowledge is indispensable regarding studies ...
Rv1268c protein peptide inhibiting Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv entry to target cells
Tuberculosis (TB) remains one of the most worrying infectious diseases affecting public health around the world; 8.7 million new TB cases were reported in 2011. The search for an Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv protein ...
Liver stage antigen 3 Plasmodium falciparum peptides specifically interacting with HepG2 cells
Binding assays were carried out with 20 amino acid long peptides covering the complete 200-kDa Liver stage antigen (LSA) 3 protein sequence to identify its HepG2 cell binding regions. Seventeen HepG2 cell high-activity ...
Sjoegren syndrome associated with hepatitis C virus: a multicenter analysis of 137 cases
To define the clinical and immunologic pattern of expression of Sjo¨gren syndrome (SS) associated with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection, we conducted a multicenter study aiming to collect a large number of patients ...
Cross-reactivity between annexin A2 and Beta-2-glycoprotein I in animal models of antiphospholipid syndrome
Antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) affects coagulation and the brain by autoimmune mechanisms. The major antigen in APS is beta-2-glycoprotein I (?2-GPI) is known to complex with annexin A2 (ANXA2), and antibodies to ANXA2 ...
Occupational hypersensitivity pneumonitis caused by fossil-containing rocks
Aims: We present a hypersensitivity immune response to inhalation of antigens from fossil soils frequently used in tile manufacture. We found that the soil polished by a worker affected by pneumonitis was a paleosol ...
