Article Synopsis
  • Cervical cancer is commonly treated with Doxorubicin, but researchers are exploring oncolytic virus therapy, specifically Newcastle disease virus (NDV), to enhance treatment effectiveness and boost the immune response against tumors.
  • In a study with mouse models, the combined treatment of NDV and Doxo resulted in better survival rates and slower tumor growth compared to control groups, indicating a potential synergy between the two therapies.
  • The combination therapy not only increased key immune markers in the body but also improved overall tumor-fighting capabilities, suggesting NDV could serve as a promising adjunct to traditional chemotherapy for cervical cancer.

Dermaseptin B2 (DrsB2) is an antimicrobial peptide with anticancer and angiostatic properties. We aimed to assess the in vitro inhibitory effect of pDNA/DrsB2 on the growth of breast cancer cells and its impact on the expression of genes involved in the BAX/BBC3/AKT pathway. The nucleic acid sequence of DrsB2 was artificially synthesized and inserted into the pcDNA3.

Background: Due to antibiotic resistance, the Klebsiella genus is linked to morbidity and death, necessitating the development of a universally protective vaccine against Klebsiella pathogens.

Methods: Core sequence analysis prioritized non-redundant host molecules and expected lipid bilayer peptides from fully sequenced Klebsiella genomes. These proteins were refined to identify epitopes, examining their immunogenicity, toxicity, solubility, and interaction with MHC alleles.

Breast cancer is the most common cancer among women worldwide, and marine creatures are the most abundant reservoir of anticancer medicines. Tachyplesin peptides have shown antibacterial capabilities, but their potential to inhibit cancer growth and trigger cancer cell death has not been investigated. A synthetic tachyplesin nucleotide sequence was generated and inserted into the pcDNA3.

The present work aimed to examine the intracellular antibacterial efficacy of Recombinant Lactobacillus acidophilus/antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) Melittin and Alyteserin-1a, specifically targeting Gram-negative bacteria. The first assessment was to determine the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) of Recombinant L. acidophilus/AMPs versus Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria.

Introduction: blood production is an urgent need of most countries, and creating production protocols can save the lives of many patients. Despite the recent advances in blood production in conditions, its high-scale production is not yet possible, and requires further studies. Therefore, by transfecting fibroblast cells with miR-16, and miR-451 genes, as well as applying low frequency electromagnetic fields (ELF-EMF) treatment, we tried to increase the differentiation of these cells into CD and CD erythroid like progenitors.

Falsified food directly influences wildlife, fair trade, religion, and the health of society. Here, we report a multiplex polymerase chain reaction to evaluate the accurate determination of seven species of bird meat in meals on a single assay platform. To amplify segments of DNA from Columba livia, Corvus moneduloides, Gallus gallus, Coturnix japonica, Phasianus colchicus, Struthio camelus, and Meleagris gallopavo meats, respectively, a total of seven sets of species-specific primers targeting the mitochondrial and cytochrome genes were developed.

Background: The increasing prevalence of cancer detection necessitated practical strategies to deliver highly accurate, beneficial, and dependable processed information together with experimental results. We deleted the cancer biomarker NOX4 using three novel genetic knockout (KO) methods. Homology-directed repair (HDR), Dual allele HITI (Du-HITI) and CRISPR-excision were utilized in this study.

Multi-epitope polypeptide vaccines, a fusion protein, often have a string-of-beads system composed of various specific peptide epitopes, potential adjuvants, and linkers. When choosing the sequence of various segments and linkers, many alternatives are available. These variables can influence the vaccine's effectiveness through their effects on physicochemical properties and polypeptide tertiary structure.

Ras guanine nucleotide-releasing protein 1 (Rasgrp1) is a Ras guanine nucleotide exchange factor that participates in the activation of the Ras-ERK signaling pathway in developing T cells and is required for efficient thymic T cell positive selection. However, the role of Rasgrp1 in mature peripheral T cells has not been definitively addressed, in part because peripheral T cells from constitutive Rasgrp1-deficient mice show an abnormal activated phenotype. In this study, we generated an inducible Rasgrp1-deficient mouse model to allow acute disruption of Rasgrp1 in peripheral CD4+ T cells in the context of normal T cell development.
