Marginal SARS-CoV-2 Spike Protein Increases Interferon and Balances Cytokine Gene Expression

Oct 2022 DOI 10.14302/issn.2692-1537.ijcv-22-4296
Satadal DasCorresponding author

Some evidence confirms the paradoxical beneficial role of harmful antigens when used in highly diluted forms. In this experiment, we observed cytokine gene expression changes in Gallus gallus embryo after challenge with Delta SARS-CoV-2 RBD spike protein antigen, from a concentration of 10 µg/mL to…

Use of Immune Modulator Interferon-Gamma to Support Combating COVID-19 Pandemic

May 2020 DOI 10.14302/issn.2692-1537.ijcv-20-3345
Fatih OzcelikCorresponding author

While the COVID-19 pandemic has raised concerns about the future of people worldwide, it has made it necessary to take measures with high economic costs, including quarantine. We consider it is more logical for some scientists to investigate time-saving treatment options until vaccination studies, w…

The Identification of Somatic Mutations in Interferon-G Signal Molecules in Human Uterine Leiomyosarcoma

Oct 2016 DOI 10.14302/issn.2572-3030.jcgb-16-1276
Takuma HayashiCorresponding author

Human uterine leiomyosarcoma (LMS) is neoplastic malignancy that typically arises in tissues of mesenchymal origin. The identification of novel molecular mechanism leading to human uterine LMS formation and the establishment of new therapies has been hampered by several critical points. We earlier r…

Cytokine Profiling in COVID-19 Patients in a Tertiary Hospital in Saudi Arabia; the Pre-Storm Phase

Jan 2022 DOI 10.14302/issn.2692-1537.ijcv-21-4051
Mayyadah AlabdelyCorresponding author

Background As COVID-19 immunomodulation has been a part of interest for studies, it has been found that severe coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is associated with hyper-inflammatory response and increased levels of interleukin-6 (IL-6) and interleukin-10 (IL-10). This can progress to cytokine sto…

Cytokine Expression in Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cell Cultures Obtained from Cattle with Different Stages of Natural Mycobacterium bovis Infection

Dec 2021 DOI 10.14302/issn.2575-1212.jvhc-21-4034
Fernando Díaz-Otero,Corresponding author CENID-Salud Animal e Inocuidad. Instituto Nacional de Investigaciones Forestales, Agrícolas y Pecuarias (INIFAP). Carretera México-Toluca, Km. 15.5, C.P. 05110, Ciudad de México, México.

In bovine tuberculosis (bTB), cellular, humoral, or both types of immune responses have been observed. The purpose of this study was to examine the immune status of tuberculous cows based on the differential cytokine gene expression associated with Th1 (IFN-γ, IL-2), or Th2 (IL-4, IL-10) responses.…

Evaluation of Inflammatory Serum Cytokines after Treatment with the Consciousness Energy Healing Based Proprietary Test Formulation on Combination of Cecal Slurry, LPS and E. Coli Induced Systemic Inflammatory Response Syndrome (SIRS) in Sprague Dawley Rats

Jul 2021 DOI 10.14302/issn.2766-8681.jcsr-21-3885
Snehasis JanaCorresponding author

Sepsis is a systemic inflammatory response to a confirmed or suspected infection. The transition from sepsis to septic shock causes high rate of mortality. The aim of this experiment was to evaluate the anti-inflammatory potential of the Biofield Energy Treated (Blessed) Proprietary Test Formulation…

Excellent Completion Rate of 8-Weeks Hepatitis C Treatment in Prison; Results of French National Study.

May 2019 DOI 10.14302/issn.2328-0182.japst-19-2738
Aurore BARONCorresponding author

Rationale Prisons are major reservoirs of hepatitis C virus (HCV) in which a therapeutic approach has been particularly difficult so far. Prevalence of viral hepatitis C (HCV) is higher in prison environment in France than in the general population and is estimated to be 4,8%. The impact in prison e…

Effect of Oral Honey Consumption on Immune Function Following Ex-Vivo Lipopolysaccharide Stimulation in Healthy Humans

Mar 2019 DOI 10.14302/issn.2379-7835.ijn-19-2639
Olivia McCarthyCorresponding author

Nine healthy individuals with a mean ± SD BMI of 22.0 ± 0.7 kg/m² and age of 20 ± 0.2 years, participated in this single-blind randomised, crossover trial investigating the impact of ingesting two different honeys (1) Tropical Forest Honey (TFH) and (2) Manuka Honey; strength 12+ (MAN) on circulatin…

Effect of Coinfection by Fasciola hepatica and Mycobacterium bovis on Bovine Tuberculosis Immunodiagnosis in an Enzootic Area Hidalgo State, Mexico.

Dec 2018 DOI 10.14302/issn.2575-1212.jvhc-18-2487
Fernando Díaz-OteroCorresponding author Centro Nacional de Investigaciones Disciplinarias en Microbiología Animal, Instituto Nacional de Investigaciones Forestales, Agrícolas y Pecuarias. Carretera México-Toluca, Km. 15.5, C.P. 05110, México D.F.

Parasitic infection by the Fasciola hepatica (F. hepatica) promotes susceptibility towards other infections, such as Mycobacterium bovis. As consequence, could affect diagnostic tests for this disease. Hence, the objective of this study was to assess the impact of F. hepatica coinfection on the most…

Assessment of the Immune Response Induced in Neonatal Calves by Vaccination with Mycobacterium Bovis BCG Phipps Under Field Conditions

Aug 2017 DOI 10.14302/issn.2575-1212.jvhc-17-1662
Fernando Díaz OteroCorresponding author

Immunization of cattle with the bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) vaccine, especially neonates, induces protection against Mycobacterium bovis (M. bovis) and has been proposed as a strategy for bovine tuberculosis (bTB) control. Therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate the immune response induc…

Computational STAT4 rSNP Analysis, Transcriptional Factor Binding Sites and Disease

Feb 2016 DOI 10.14302/issn.2374-9431.jbd-15-890
Norman E. BurokerCorresponding author

Purpose Signal Transducer and Activator of Transcription 4 (STAT4) is important for signaling by interleukins (IL-12 and IL-23) and type 1 interferons and has been found to have several simple nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with human disease. STAT4 SNPs were computationally examined wit…
