Expression of a recombinant protein immunochemically equivalent to the major Anisakis simplex allergen Ani s 1.

J Investig Allergol Clin Immunol 18(2):78-83 (2008) PMID 18447135

Anisakis simplex is a nematode which can parasitize humans, producing anisakiasis and can induce immunoglobulin-(Ig)-E-mediated allergic symptoms. Parasite recombinant proteins, such as the major allergen Ani s 1, may be useful tools to avoid misdiagnosis of A simplex allergy due to cross-reactivity when whole parasite extracts are used.

    Retrovirology 10(1):50 (2013) PMID 23647667

    HIV-2 capsid sequences expressed high levels of susceptibility to hTRIM5alpha. This property, common to all HIV-2 sequences tested, may contribute in part to the lower replication and pathogenicity of this virus in humans....

    We previously identified the tumor suppressor MEN1 as a gene required for oncogene-induced senescence in melanocytes, raising the possibility that MEN1 is a melanoma tumor suppressor. Here we show that MEN1 expression is lost in a high percentage of human melanomas and melanoma cell lines. We find t...

    Tumour Biol (2013) PMID 23649655

    We demonstrated that human lung adenocarcinoma A549 cells treated with recombinant human CCL19 could obviously upregulate the expression of Sp1 and heparanase at both the mRNA and protein levels. After blockage of CCR7, Sp1 and heparanase expressions were inhibited. Following inhibition of Sp1, hepa...
