By definition, elimination of malaria means permanent reduction to zero of locally incidence of infections.Achieving this goal among other reasons, it requires fully understanding on where and when persons are most exposed to malaria vectors as these are fundamental for targeting interventions to achieve maximum impact.While elimination can be poss
Mucosal or parenteral immunization with a killed unencapsulated pneumococcal whole cell antigen (WCA) with an adjuvant protects mice from colonization by a T(H)17 CD4+ cell-mediated mechanism.Using preparative SDS gels, we separated the soluble proteins that compose the WCA in order to identify fractions Hunter Bridle that were immunogenic and prot
Chordoma in pediatric patients is very rare.Proton therapy has become a gold standard in the treatment of these neoplasms, as high dose escalation can be achieved regarding the target while maximizing the sparing of the healthy tissues near the tumor.The aim of the work was to assess the evolution of morphological sequences during treatment using T
Archaea often thrive in environmental extremes, enduring levels of heat, pressure, salinity, pH, and radiation that prove intolerable to most life.Many environmental extremes raise the propensity for DNA damaging events Coupe Mugs and thus, impact DNA stability, placing greater reliance on molecular mechanisms that recognize DNA damage and initiate
Abstract Selenium (Se), an essential trace element, is inserted as selenocysteine into an array of functional proteins and forms the core of various enzymes that play a cardinal role in antioxidant defense mechanisms, in redox regulation, and in thyroid hormone metabolism.Variations in plasma Se are due to nutritional habits, geographic and ethnic
