Based on the previously reported 13-residue antibacterial peptide analog, brevinin-1EMa (FLGWLFKVASKVL, peptide B), we attempted to design a novel class of antiviral peptides. For this goal,...
A novel fluorescent paper-based DNA sensor employing a highly specific pyrrolidinyl peptide nucleic acid (acpcPNA) probe was developed for the sensitive and selective detection of hepatitis ...
The aim: To establish the dependence of the concentration of galectin-9(CGal-9) in the serum of patients with chronic viral hepatitis C (CVHC) on the type of antiviral therapy (AVT), clinica...
Direct-acting antiviral (DAA) therapy for hepatitis C (HCV) has encouraged lung transplantation with HCV+ donors. Early trials have been promising(1, 2), however nationwide data has not been...
Hepatitis E Virus (HEV) is an infection known worldwide for its asymptomatic and self-limited course in most cases. Some cases progressing to chronicity have been described in immunosuppress...
The cost utility of image-guided surveillance using computed tomography (CT) and positron emission tomography (PET)-CT to planned postradiation neck dissection (PRND) was compared for the ma...
Current treatment methods for hepatitis B are mainly antiviral drug therapy and immunotherapy, in which antiviral drugs are mainly nucleoside analogue and interferon. They can significantly ...
Approximately 5% of cancers are caused by high-risk human papillomaviruses. Although very effective preventive vaccines will reduce this cancer burden significantly over the next several dec...
The dried rhizome of Atractylodes lancea (Thumb.) DC. (Compositae) has been prescribed in folk medicine for the management of various inflammatory conditions such as rheumatic diseases, gast...
Iran is among countries with high opioid agonist therapy (OAT) coverage in prisons, which provides an infrastructure to increase feasibility of HCV programs. We aimed to evaluate the impact ...
CRISPR-Cas12a (Cpf1) trans-cleaves ssDNA and this feature has been widely harnessed for nucleic acid detection. Herein, we introduce a new type of Cas12a reporter, G-triplex (G3), and a high...
An athlete's skin has to cope with various stressors that influence skin integrity. This study investigated the effect of intense sporting activity at a competitive level on skin health, ind...
Hepatitis E virus (HEV) infection is a worldwide disease and the primary cause of acute viral hepatitis with an estimated 3.3 million symptomatic cases every year and 44,000 related deaths. ...
Autoimmune encephalitis (AE) is an increasingly recognized inflammatory disorder of the central nervous system and is most often characterized by antibodies against intracellular and neurona...
The purpose of our study was to determine the prevalence of urogenital mixed infections and the sensitivity of mycoplasmas and ureaplasmas to antibiotics in reproductive aged women with pelv...
The article presents the results of biochemical studies of blood and morphological characteristics of liver changes in laboratory animals (rats) under experimental conditions of paracetamol ...
Chronic infection with hepatitis B virus (HBV) is a major risk factor for the development of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The HBV encoded oncoprotein, HBx, alters the expression of host g...
Hepatitis C virus-associated HCC (HCV-HCC) is a prevalent malignancy worldwide and the molecular mechanisms are still elusive. Here, we screened 240 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) of ...
To determine whether up-front trans-oral robotic surgery (TORS) for clinically-staged locally-advanced human papillomavirus (HPV)-related oropharyngeal cancer is associated with oncologic an...
Combination therapy with glecaprevir and pibrentasvir (PIB) has high efficacy for patients with hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection except among those who experienced NS5A-P32 deletion (del) m...
