Purpose: Although the serum albumin/globulin ratio (AGR) is recognized as a valuable prognostic biomarker in various cancers, its clinical value in oral cavity squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is still unclear. We aimed to probe the
With the aim to control the effectiveness of drainage of the abdominal cavity after operations on the liver and pancreas in 28 patients, a value of the prognostic coefficient (PC) of the course of wound process (ratio of total protein level in the blood plasma of the patients to its content in wound
Immune state was evaluated in 69 schoolchildren. In cases with dental caries, local immunity changes were evident with changes in immune globulins content. This is the first report on the presence of antigen to caries-afflicted dentin in the mixed saliva as detected by the complement binding
A sensitive biological test has been used to detect the persistence of minute traces of a foreign protein, bovine gamma-globulin, in the blood and livers of rabbits intravenously injected with it, as an antigen. At various intervals after injecting these rabbits (donors) serum or liver tissue was
Alpha 2u-globulin (A2U) is the major urinary protein excreted by adult male rats. The structure of a monoclinic crystal form of A2U was reported in 1992 [Böcskei et al. (1992). Nature (London), 360, 186-188]. The structures of an orthorhombic crystal form of A2U at 2. 5 A resolution (refined to an R
We report a rare case of life-threatning pneumothorax induced by multiple intrapulmonary cavitary lesion due to Absidia corymbifera and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). The patient was a 58-year-old man who had undergone kidney transplantation three year ago due to diabetes renal
Recipients of allotransplants are more susceptible to viral infections, among which the human papilloma virus infection is an independent factor inducing precancerous lesions and cancers of both the anogenital and the cervicocephalic region.
METHODS
The study included a group of 69 allogenic kidney
Coeliac disease frequency increases by obscure reasons and affects in some Western countries as much as 1% of the populations. The second one of monozygotic twins does not develop the disease in 100% but only in 20-50%. To unravel these mysteries, literature was searched to determine the disease
Auxin levels are tightly regulated within the plant cell, and its storage in the isolated cavity of proteins is a measure adopted by cells to maintain the availability of auxin. We report the first crystal structure of Wrightia tinctoria 11S globulin (WTG) in complex with Indole-3-acetic acid (IAA),
The yolk sac placenta has been implicated previously in transmission of passive immunity to the fetus. This work uses an immunohistochemical technique devised by Sternberger et al. ('69) to study this problem. Rabbit serum containing gamma globulins was injected into the uterine lumen of the White
