hemagglutinin/hemorrhage

Hemagglutinins of Hantaan virus strains isolated in Southern Far East of Russia from patients with hemorrhagic fever with the renal syndrome and from rodents, natural vectors of the virus, were studied in the cross kinetic hemagglutination inhibition test with immune sera to the studied strains. The

Using the Z-10 strain of epidemic hemorrhagic fever virus (EHFV) as seed, and the primary cell of Meriones unguiculatus kidney tissue as incubation cell, a propiolactone inactivated epidemic hemorrhagic fever (EHF) vaccine was prepared, according to a similar procedure required for the production of

The brains of suckling mice and suspension of Vero-E6 cells inoculated with Chen's strain of hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome virus (HFRSV) were obtained and prepared into high titre hemagglutinin (HAN). The crude HAN was purified by high pressure liquid chromatography. The molecular weight of

This study examined the inflammation, lung function impairment, and immune protection associated with either wild-type or interferon (IFN)-gamma-deficient Tc1- or Tc2-CD8 effector cells responding to influenza pneumonia. The adoptive transfer of influenza hemagglutinin-specific Tc1 effectors

The toxic effects of cowpea and limabean extracts containing hemagglutinins and pathological changes in organs of weanling and growing rats were investigated. Livers of weanling rats injected with limabean hemagglutinin mean lethal dose (MLD), showed marked congestion of the sinusoids. Livers of

OBJECTIVE We describe abnormalities of retinal vasculature and blood flow in a patient with cold hemagglutinin disease. METHODS Case report and literature review using the PubMed database. RESULTS A man with cold hemagglutinin disease and no visual symptoms was referred to the Eye Department with

Reovirus type 1, strain Lang, and type 3, strain Dearing, induced site-specific intestinal lesions in the adult mouse after intravenous inoculation. Reovirus type 1 caused inflammation and epithelial changes such as loss of nuclear polarity, villus blunting and crypt hyperplasia restricted to the

A three-year old girl was hospitalized in a semi-conscious state following a febrile convulsion. She did not recover despite treatment and died 16 days after admission. Influenza A virus (H3N2) was detected from a throat swab from the patient, and serum hemagglutinin-inhibiting antibodies to the

Hemagglutinating properties of various serological types of hantavirus isolated in the Primorye area from humans with hemorrhagic fever with the renal syndrome and rodents, natural carriers of the virus, were studied. The strains were found to differ by capacity to accumulate hemagglutinin at

Cholera toxin gene-negative Vibrio cholerae non-O1, non-O139 strain PL-21 is the etiologic agent of cholera-like syndrome. Hemagglutinin protease (HAP) is one of the major secretory proteins of PL-21. The mature 45-kDa and processed 35-kDa forms of HAP were purified in the presence and absence of

An epidemiologic evaluation of patients with hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome from different locations in the People's Republic of China was conducted to define the prevalence of two Hantavirus serotypes, Seoul (SEO) and Hantaan (HTN). Serum specimens were collected between 5 and 14 days after

BACKGROUND Two well-characterized proteases secreted by Vibrio cholerae O1 strains are hemagglutinin protease (HAP) and V. cholerae protease (PrtV). The hapA and prtV knock out mutant, V. cholerae O1 strain CHA6.8ΔprtV, still retains residual protease activity. We initiated this study to

Ebola hemorrhagic fever (EHF) epidemic currently ongoing in West Africa is not the first among numerous epidemics in the continent. Yet it seems to be the worst EHF epidemic outbreak caused by Ebola virus Zaire since 1976 as regards its extremely large scale and rapid spread in the population.

Virulence of Pseudomonas aeruginosa is typically attributed to its type III secretion system (T3SS). A taxonomic outlier, the P. aeruginosa PA7 strain, lacks a T3SS locus, and no virulence phenotype is attributed to PA7. We characterized a PA7-related, T3SS-negative P. aeruginosa strain, CLJ1,
