The use of antibodies for in vivo research and the development of functional studies considerably expand the scope of immunoglobulins beyond in vitro immunoassays . In in vivo studies , the antibodies can be used on living cells or in whole animals by injection, with the aim of depleting a certain cell type, blocking receptors or inducing cellular activation to carry out functional studies. Antibodies … Read more

The study of the human microbiome is having an increasing presence and impact on biomedical research projects. Although one of the best described microbiota to date is the intestinal microbiome , which has captured the attention of the scientific community due, among other things, to its high cell density, we must not lose sight of the interest that the study … Read more

Isolation and Immunological Detection of Mycobacterium Tuberculosis from HIV and Non-HIV Patients in Benue State, Nigeria.
Immunological methods are essential instruments for tuberculosis epidemiology; though its use is underutilized in Nigeria. In this research, we report the epidemiological outlook of Mycobacterium tuberculosis amongst HIV sufferers in Benue State, Nigeria. Sputum samples had been collected from 425 suspected TB sufferers from July 2016 to February 2018 and subjected to acid-fast microscopy, GeneXpert MTB/RIF, processed utilizing NALC-NaOH … Read more

A Pilot Study of the Humoral Response Against the AntiSense Protein (ASP) in HIV-1-Infected Patients.
The existence of an antisense Open Reading Frame (ORF) that encodes a putative AntiSense Protein (ASP) on the proviral genome of Human Immunodeficiency Virus type 1 (HIV-1) was a source of debate for 30 years. During the last years, some progresses have been made to characterize the cellular immune response against ASP in HIV-1 seropositive patients. … Read more

Burden of tuberculosis and challenges related to screening and diagnosis in Ethiopia.
One-third of tuberculosis (TB) circumstances in Ethiopia are lacking from look after causes that aren’t properly studied. The goal of this examine was to assess TB burden and establish challenges related to TB screening and diagnosis in Ethiopia. A facility-based cross-sectional examine was carried out in seven well being services chosen from two areas and … Read more
Read MoreWhat are the riscks in using gene therapy are we close to approval of such treatments? The main concern is that gene therapy might create a Frankenstein cell, they would hit different genes rather than the intended goal, so it is great that this did not occur.China appears to be moving fast on such research … Read more
