Antibody Response to Human Extracellular HER2 Subdomain Proteins in Mice

Fateme Sadri-Ardalani; Moslem Ahmadi; Azam Hemmati; Shaghayegh Emami; Samira Farid; Mohammad Mehdi Amiri; Mahmood Jeddi-Tehrani; Mahdi Shabani; Fazel Shokri

Volume 14, Issue 2 , June 2017, Pages 99-110

Abstract
  Background: In addition to passive immunotherapy using anti-HER2 monoclonal antibodies, active immunotherapy via HER2 targeting is an interesting approach to inducing specific anti-tumor immune responses. We have recently reported the immunogenicity of HER2 subdomains following DNA immunization and HER2 ...  Read More

Immunodiagnostic Value of Echinococcus Granulosus Recombinant B8/1 Subunit of Antigen B

Amir Savardashtaki; Bahador Sarkari; Farzane Arianfar; Zohreh Mostafavi-Pour

Volume 14, Issue 2 , June 2017, Pages 111-122

Abstract
  Background: Cystic echinococcosis (CE), as a chronic parasitic disease, is a major health problem in many countries. The performance of the currently available serodiagnostic tests for the diagnosis of CE is unsatisfactory. Objective: The current study aimed at sub-cloning a gene, encoding the B8/1 subunit ...  Read More

BALB/c Mice Immunity to Hydatidosis Induced by In-vitro Reared Echinococcus granulosus Adult Worm Antigens

Hamid Reza Rahimi; Tahereh Mohammadzadeh; Seyed Mahmoud Sadjjadi; Bahador Sarkari; Farzaneh Zahabiun

Volume 14, Issue 2 , June 2017, Pages 123-133

Abstract
  Background: Echinococcosis is a zoonotic parasitic disease caused by the larval stage of Echinococcus granulosus. Several native and recombinant antigens, derived from different stages of E. granulosus life cycle, have been used for vaccine trials. In vitro reared adult worms are good candidates for ...  Read More

Modulation of CD4+ T Cell Subsets by Euphorbia microciadia and Euphorbia osyridea Plant Extracts

Haideh Namdari; Maryam Izad; Zahra Amirghofran

Volume 14, Issue 2 , June 2017, Pages 134-150

Abstract
  Background: Euphorbia plants are traditionally used in folk medicine for infections, inflammation, and cancer. Objectives: To investigate the effects of the butanolic extracts of Euphorbia micorociadia and Euphorbia osyridea on specific transcription factors and cytokines expression of T cell subsets. ...  Read More

Low Dose of Lenalidomide Enhances NK Cell Activity: Possible Implication as an Adjuvant

Kiandokht Borhani; Taravat Bamdad; Tayebeh Hashempour

Volume 14, Issue 2 , June 2017, Pages 151-158

Abstract
  Background: Lenalidomide, a synthetic immunomodulatory drug, has a wide range of features including anti-angiogenic and anti-proliferative properties. To date, researchers have shown that lenalidomide is capable of ameliorating the immune system factors and antitumor responses. Most researchers have ...  Read More

Low 17β-estradiol Levels Are Better Inducers of Regulatory Conditioned T Cells In-Vitro

Ramina Fatemi; Ebrahim Mirzadegan; Zohreh Vahedian; Amir Hassan Zarnani; Mahmood Jeddi-Tehrani; Farah Idali

Volume 14, Issue 2 , June 2017, Pages 159-171

Abstract
  Background: 17β-estradiol (E2) has been known to modulate immune response. Recent studies indicate that E2 at pregnancy level plays a role in regulating T cell response. Objective: To investigate the optimum dose of E2 (from 10-9 to 10-7 M) in mediating the generation of regulatory T cells (Tregs), ...  Read More

Assessment of T helper 17-associated cytokines in third trimester of pregnancy

Tahereh Poordast; Fateme Sadat Najib; Rasoul Baharlou; Atena Bijani; Shaghayegh Moradi Alamdarloo; Alieh Poordast

Volume 14, Issue 2 , June 2017, Pages 172-179

Abstract
  Background: Preeclampsia is a common pregnancy-specific disorder associated with significant maternal and fetal morbidity and mortality worldwide. It has been proposed that the imbalance between two CD4+ T cell subtypes, regulatory T cells (Treg) and T-helper 17 cells (Th17), is involved in the pathophysiology ...  Read More
