Analysis of pediatric Obstructive Nephropathy using protein antibody arrays and computational techniques
(2010)Obstructive Nephropathy (ON) is a renal disease quite frequent in newborns and children. Although it is caused by the improper flow of urine, the nephron destruction can be magnified by various molecular processes. In the ... -
Anti-survivin antibody responses in lung cancer
(2009)Existing evidence regarding spontaneous anti-survivin humoral responses in lung cancer is inconclusive. Moreover, despite that cancer cell death elicited by radiotherapy and some chemotherapeutic agents seems to be ... -
Comparison of two commercial rapid in-clinic serological tests for detection of antibodies against Leishmania spp. in dogs
(2014)Antibodies against Leishmania spp. are detected in most dogs with clinical signs of leishmaniasis due to Leishmania infantum. Accurate, rapid in-clinic serological tests may permit immediate confirmation of the diagnosis ... -
Diagnostic and clinical significance of Crohn's disease-specific pancreatic anti-GP2 and anti-CUZD1 antibodies
(2016)Background: Pancreatic autoantibodies (PAB) targeting GP2 and CUZD1 are Crohn's disease (CrD)-markers. The clinical significance of anti-GP2 antibodies has been assessed, but that of anti-CUZD1 remains elusive. The aim of ... -
Magnetic nanoparticles in medical diagnostic applications: Synthesis, characterization and proteins conjugation
(2016)Background: Magnetic nanoparticles (NPs) used in biomedical applications should be discrete with small particle sizes, narrow size distribution and superparamagnetic. NPs can be tailored to target, through chemical bonds, ... -
Pancreatic anti-GP2 and anti-Saccharomyces cerevisiae antibodies in ruminants with paratuberculosis: A better understanding of the immunopathogenesis of Crohn's disease
(2020)Introduction: Ruminants (cattle and sheep) with Mycobacterium avium (MAP)-induced paratuberculosis (ptb), the ruminant model of Crohn's disease (CD), exhibit pancreatic specific autoantibodies (PAB) against GP2 but not ... -
Prevalence of Coxiella burnetii antibodies in bulk milk and blood serum and associations with reproductive indices in cow dairy herds of Central and Northern Greece
(2011)For the first time in Greece, we investigated the prevalence of Coxiella burnetii antibodies in milk and sera from dairy cattle herds located at central and northern parts of the country. Eighty herds were initially voluntary ... -
Primary biliary cirrhosis presented as peripheral eosinophilia in asymptomatic women with or without elevated alkaline phosphatase
(2004)Primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC) is a chronic cholestatic liver disease characterized by the destruction of biliary epithelial cells, presumably by autoimmune mechanism(s). Although lymphocytes play a pivotal role in the ... -
Rituximab Administered for Recurrent Membranous Nephropathy in a Kidney Transplant Recipient Did Not Eliminate Donor-Specific Antibodies
(2022)Chronic active antibody-mediated rejection is the leading cause of kidney transplant failure. Although various immunosuppressive agents have been tested, rituximab included, presently there is no effective treatment. There ... -
Validated analysis of HIF-1α expression in cancer cells using a controlled and comparative immunoassay
(2010)The immunoreactivity of hypoxia inducible factor 1 α (HIF-1α) has been considered a reliable indicator of the HIF-1 pathway activation in tissue hypoxia. However, HIF-1α immunoreactivity has been evaluated with different ...
