Longitudinal changes in HIV-specific IFN-? secretion in subjects who received Remune™ vaccination prior to treatment interruption
(2006)
BACKGROUND:Despite the benefits of highly active antitretroviral therapy (HAART) for suppressing viral replication in HIV infection, virus persists and rebounds during treatment interruption (TI). This study explored whether ...
AutoFACT: An Automatic Functional Annotation and Classification Tool
(2005)
BACKGROUND:Assignment of function to new molecular sequence data is an essential step in genomics projects. The usual process involves similarity searches of a given sequence against one or more databases, an arduous process ...
HIV-1 Vpr up-regulates expression of ligands for the activating NKG2D receptor and promotes NK cell-mediated killing
(2010)
HIV upregulates cell-surface expression of specific ligands for the activating NKG2D receptor, including ULBP-1, -2, -3, but not MICA or MICB, in infected cells both in vitro and in vivo. However, the viral factor(s) ...
Effect of calcium-modulating cyclophilin ligand on human immunodeficiency virus type 1 particle release and cell surface expression of Tetherin
(2009)
The HIV-1 accessory protein Vpu enhances virus particle release by counteracting a host factor that retains virions at the cell surface of infected cells. It was recently demonstrated that cellular protein BST2/CD317/Tetherin ...
Negative emotions during exercise may induce specific ventilatory patterns
(American Physiological Society, 2020-05-15)
The proprotein convertase PC5/6 is protective against intestinal tumorigenesis: In vivo mouse model
(2009)
The secretory basic amino acid-specific proprotein convertases (PCs) have often been associated with cancer/metastasis. By controlling the cleavage of cancer-associated proteins, PCs play key roles in multiple steps of ...
Reliability and minimal detectable change of the mini-BESTest in adults with spinal cord injury in a rehabilitation setting
(Taylor and Francis, 2019-06-03)
Background: The mini-Balance Evaluation Systems Test (mini-BESTest) is a valid tool for assessing standing balance in people with spinal cord injury (SCI). Its reliability has not yet been investigated with this ...
2021 ISHEN guidelines on animal models of hepatic encephalopathy
(Wiley, 2021-04-01)
This working group of the International Society of Hepatic Encephalopathy and Nitrogen Metabolism (ISHEN) was commissioned to summarize and update current efforts in the development and characterization of animal models ...
Development, implementation and assessment of a concussion education programme for high school student-athletes
(Taylor and Francis, 2018)
Although experts have noted that adolescent athletes should be educated about concussions to improve their safety, there is no agreement on the most effective strategy to disseminate concussion education. The purpose of ...
Quantitative MRI in patients with gluteal tendinopathy and asymptomatic volunteers : initial results on T1- and T2*-mapping diagnostic accuracy and correlation with clinical assessment
(Springer, 2021-04-29)
Objective To determine if T1- and T2*-mapping of the gluteal tendons can discriminate between participants with and without clinical findings of gluteal tendinopathy (GT) and if they correlate with clinical assessment. ...
