Equid alphaherpesvirus 1 (EHV-1) infection causes abortion, respiratory disease, perinatal deaths and neurological disorders in horses. The natural infection and available vaccines provide only partial and short-lived protection against reinfections. In the present study, we analyzed the ability of purif...
Introduction: The cell-mediated immune response plays an important role in the control of HPV-induced cancers. Cytokines play an important function
in host defense against HPV infection by modulating viral infection and polarizing the immune response towards Th1 or Th2 cells. Objective: To evaluate
the s...
Introduction: Viral Hepatitis B is an infection with a high transferability, and delivery is the main form of transmission to newborns. Investigating HBV
infection in pregnant women should be undertaken through research on the surface antigen of Hepatitis B virus (HBsAg), and the immunity to the virus
sh...
Abstract Growth and immune response of Pangasius hypophthalmus were evaluated after feeding the fish with diets containing hot-water extracts (HWE) of Sargassum oligocystum as immunostimulant at 100, 300, and 500 mg kg-1 diet. Basal diet for P. hypophthalmus served as the control. The experimental diets ...
