Abstract We have cloned the macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF)-like protein (Anisakis simplex (As)-MIF) from larvae of whale worm third-stage larvae). Asthma was induced in mice using OVA/alum, with or without various concentrations rAs-MIF treatment before OVA/alum challenge. Treatment coupled during challenge period a complete inhibition eosinophilia and goblet cell hyperplasia within lung profoundly ameliorated development hyperreactivity. Also, shown to reduce quantity...

Thymosin β4 has been reported to play the key roles in tumor growth, metastasis, and angiogenesis. Although importance of thymosin angiogenesis metastasis is known, few studies show expression patterns human tissues including tumors have conducted. The comparisons between normal are also needed study role formation. Using tissue microarray analysis, we compared screen certain upregulated by tumorigenesis. was highly expressed hepatic cells adult liver, duct, acinar pancreas, muscle heart...

The infection status of marine fish and cephalopods with Anisakis simplex third stage larva (L3) was studied over a period 1 year. A total 2,537 specimens, which consisted 40 species 3 cephalopods, were purchased from the Cooperative Fish Market in Busan, Korea, August 2006 to July 2007. They examined for A. L3 whole body cavity, viscera, muscles. confirmed by light microscopy. overall rate reached 34.3%, average 17.1 larvae parasitized per infected fish. that recorded highest Lophiomus...

Mucin hypersecretion and overproduction are frequent manifestations of respiratory disease. Determining the physiological function airway mucin is presently considered more important than identifying relevant signaling pathways. The lack a full-length human 8 (MUC8) cDNA sequence has hindered generation Muc8 knockout mouse line. Thus, precise functions MUC8 unclear. Herein, we investigated using small-interfering RNA (siRNA)-mediated genetic silencing approach in epithelial cells....

Malarial infection induces tissue hypoxia in the host through destruction of red blood cells. Tissue malarial may increase activity HIF1α an intracellular oxygen-sensing pathway. Activation also induce vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) to trigger angiogenesis. To investigate whether actually generates hypoxia-induced angiogenesis, we analyzed severity hypoxia, expression hypoxia-related angiogenic factors, and numbers vessels various tissues infected with Plasmodium berghei....

The status of pinworm (Enterobius vermicularis) egg positive rate primary school children in Geoje island was investigated by using adhesive cellotape anal swap method, September, 2002. Total rates E. vermicularis were 9.8% (74/754) and those male female 10.8% 8.7%, respectively. Among three schools examined, Myeongsa showed the highest (12.6%) followed Yeoncho [9.8% (26/266)] [9.1% (35/385)]. As for age groups, 2nd grade had (15.3%), whereas 5th lowest (2.6%). above result led us to confirm...

Previously, we monitored the expression level of pro-apoptotic proteins caspase-3 and cleaved poly-ADP-ribose polymerase in skeletal muscle high-fat diet-induced obese rats order to assess damage. In this study, analyzed whether exercise or dietary adjustment was more effective at preventing High-fat were divided into three groups: diet (HFD), combined (HFD+EXE), (DA) groups. For 6 weeks, HFD+EXE group subjected on an animal treadmill. Capsase-3 protein quantified, histopathology soleus...

Introduction:Trichinella spiralis establishes a chronic infection in skeletal muscle by developing nurse cells within fibers. During symbiosis host, changes the fibers and inflammation may affect function. Methods: We investigated strength T. spiralis-infected mice during 1 to 48 weeks after infection. Results: Muscle decreased compared that uninfected control late stage. Additionally, inflammatory related cytokines increased significantly early stage of then rapidly decreased. In...
