Antigenic Drift

1 Citation
Pathogens such as influenza virus have receptors that enable them to bind host cell surfaces, Antibodies to these viral receptors prevent the virus to binding to and infecting the cells, these are neutralizing antibodies since they neutralize the ability to infect the cell. However some virus have mutation that alter the receptor in the ways to prevent binding of neutralizing antibodies, while leaving the virus able to bind to and infect host cells. In this way the pattern of antigens express, technorati.com

 

Leukocytes Rolling Adhesion

1 Citation
Blood vessel endothelium at site of infection expresses selectin molecule P-selectin and E-selectin.Leukocytes such as neutrophils express the ligand for selectin in form of s-Lex .The binding of endothelial selectins to s-lex is weak and cannot hold the cell against the flow of blood .instead the cell rolls on the wall of the blood vessel making and breaking many interactions with the selectins, technorati.com

 

Study Shows That Some Allergies Might Be Inherited

1 Citation
Older teens are more likely to be allergic to the same things as one or both of their parents, results of a new study suggest. A child?s development of allergies to specific things like cats, dogs and grass is likely to reflect both exposure to common allergens and a degree of added risk determined by their parent?s specific allergies, the researchers suggest. It is well accepted that a family history of allergy is a risk factor for allergy in children. However, it is unclear whether childre, technorati.com

 

Viral Evasions

1 Citation
When virusus infect a cell ,the proteins produced in the cytosol by the virus can be degraded by proteosome and trasported into ER though the TAP transporter ,the presence of these peptide in the ER allows them to loaded on to MHC class 1 molecules and evetully trasported to surface of the cell where it can be recognised by CD8 T cells . Certain viruses are developed a stargeries to prevent their detection by cytotoxic t cells,Many of the statergies involve in preventing peptide derived from, technorati.com

IL-27 is expressed in chronic eczematous skin and stimulates keratinocytes

1 Citation
Interleukin-27 (IL-27) is a heterodimeric cytokine belonging to the IL-12 family that is composed of two subunits: - Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-induced gene 3 (EBI3) (also known as IL-27B) - IL27-p28 (known as IL-30) IL-27 is produced by antigen-presenting cells early during immune responses. It supports T-cell polarization along the T(H)1 lineage and has anti-inflammatory effect in murine models. IL-27 was expressed in chronic lesional allergic eczematous skin but not in the acute phase of ecz, technorati.com

Immunological Synapse

1 Citation
Immunological synapse is the interface between an antigen-presenting cell and a lymphocyte. It was first discovered by Abraham Kupfer at the National Jewish Center in Denver and the term was coined by Michael Dustin at NYU who studied it in further detail. Key molecules in the synapse are the T cell receptor and its counterpart the major histocompatibility complex (MHC). Also important are LFA-1, ICAM-1, CD28, and CD80/CD86. The structure is composed of concentric rings, the C-SMAC, the P-SMAC,, technorati.com
