We sought to find clinical subtypes of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in veterans 6–10 years post-trauma exposure based on current symptom assessments and to examine whether blood biomarkers could differentiate them. Samples were males deployed to Iraq and Afghanistan studied by the PTSD System...
While the immune system has been known to play a role in the control of tumourigenic cells since the start of the twentieth century (historical review: Strebhardt and Ullrich2008), research has yet to identify consistent methods to manipulate it to clear tumour cells. Significant technological a...
Tendon xanthomas including Achilles tendon thickening are accumulations of collagen and monocyte-derived foam cells that contain cholesterol esters [1]. Since long-term exposure to elevated levels of blood cholesterol is thought to be deeply involved in the formation of tendon xanthoma [2,3], the ...
Disruption of homeostasis in gut microbiota leads to pro-inflammatory cytokine release, autoantibody production as well as an increase in DCs, B cells, Th1, and Th17 cells. However, it causes a reduction in Treg cells. BBB: blood brain barrier, NS: nervous system, DCs: dendritic cells, ...
1.05 × 109cells mL–1, respectively, followed by mixing of 10 μL of fungus liquid with 10 μL of the pre-prepared AgNPs+as shown in Fig.6. Next, 2 μL of the mixture was placed on the monocrystalline silicon. They were detected by Raman spectroscopy (i-raman Plus BWS465785H...
that no single biomarker has yet translated to clinical use and suggested the use of ‘robust panels of biomarkers’ [9]. This review confirms that more research is required before we have sufficient evidence about biomarkers for upper GI cancers to warrant their adoption into clinical practice. ...
CG carriers are characterized by lower USP18 gene expression levels in peripheral blood mononuclear cells and more clinical disease activity, whereas AA homozygosity for the intronic polymorphism rs2542109 is associated with the responder phenotype in IFNB-treated patients, independent of USP18 expression...
Konstantin Kuzmin3, Jierui Xie3,5,*, Changkyu Lee2, Timothy Blanche2, Elias Chaibub Neto6, Su-Chun Huang7, Thomas Grabowski7,8, Tara Madhyastha8 & Vitalina Komashko9 Biological functions are carried out by groups of interacting molecules, cells or tissues, known as ...
Biological functions are carried out by groups of interacting molecules, cells or tissues, known as communities. Membership in these communities may overlap when biological components are involved in multiple functions. However, traditional clustering methods detect non-overlapping communities. These detected...
