(HBV) in colostra of hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg)-positive carrier mothers and the relationship of HBV amount between colostrum and maternal blood, 50 HBeAg-positive carrier mothers were recruited and studied for hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) titer, HBeAg titer, and HBV-DNA concentration...
Significant titer elevations were found between the second and third immunizations (P = 0.0003). The rate of patients considered protected was 16% after the first, 65% after the second (P < 0.0001), and 84% after the third dose (P = 0.045). No adverse events were reported. More ...
Although the 2019 EULAR/ACR classification criteria for systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) has required at least a positive anti-nuclear antibody (ANA) titer (≥ 1:80), it remains challenging for clinicians to identify patients with SLE. This study ai
000, 1:3200 and 1:1000 (P < 0.001). We found that a decrease in the serum ANA titer at 12 months after treatment for SARDs is associated with age and ANA baseline titers.
IIF on HEp-2 cells for ANA remains the "gold standard" but it has very low positive predictive value. Up to 20% of serum samples from HI have been reported to have a positive ANA IIF test, the majority of them due to the presence of anti-dense fine speckled 70 (anti-DFS70) ...
Further, JNK activation by the hepatitis B virus (HBV) X protein enhanced autophagosome formation, which was required for HBV replication in human HepG2 cells (Zhong et al., 2017). In the small brown planthopper (insect), JNK activation by the plant rice stripe virus (RSV) facilitated ...
EGFR, p16, HPV Titer, Bcl-xL and p53, sex, and smoking as indicators of response to therapy and survival in oropharyngeal cancer. J. Clin. Oncol. 2008, 26, 3128–3137. [CrossRef] [PubMed] 24. Ang, K.K.; Harris, J.; Wheeler, R.; Weber, R.; Rosenthal, D.I.; Nguyen-Tan, ...
ANA positivity was defined as a titer of ≥1:40, measured by an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) on at least two occasions. In our practice, ELISA is used for initial screening, with positive results confirmed by HEp-2 cell indirect immunofluorescence (IFA) upon request to determine...
The PEG3AP1-3STA system can thus be used to target advanced AR+ and AR− cells for imaging or immunovirotherapy in advanced PCa. Keywords: prostate cancer; neuroendocrine prostate cancer (NEPC); progression elevated gene-3 (PEG3) promoter; castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC); ...
