Immune Response to DENV Learn More Dengue Clinical Case Management E-learning Immune Response to DENV DENV infected antigen presenting cells (APC) within the lymph node recruit T cells through the production of chemoattractants. The APCs process the foreign DENV proteins into small pieces for display on the cell surface. T cells that recognize the presented antigen become activated and produce pro-inflammatory mediators. This results in the activation of the two major branches of the adaptive immune response: • Humoral immunity: helper cells make pro-inflammatory mediators that activate B cells to make antibody to eliminate DENV • Cell-mediated immunity: cytotoxic T cells directly kill cells infected with DENV Development of Life-long Type Specific Immunity Soon after DENV infection, B cells become activated, proliferate and produce IgM against the infecting DENV type. Later, some B cells change to produce IgG (some IgA or IgE, too); however, the specificity of the antibody is the same. A subset of B cells become memory cells that provide life- long protection against the infecting DENV type. Serotype Cross-Reactivity in Dengue DENV types have similar envelope or E proteins so during infection, cross-reactive (heterotypic) antibodies against all DENV types are made. DENV types are immunologically distinct and induce the production of antibodies that are type-specific (homotypic). Centers for Disease Control and Prevention 1 National Center for Emerging and Zoonotic Infectious Diseases Learn More Dengue Clinical Case Management E-learning Immune Response to DENV Secondary DENV Infections If a person is re-infected with the same DENV type, memory B cells recognize it and will start to divide, resulting in the production of new B cells that make homotypic IgG and memory cells. The antibody can eliminate DENV so quickly that the person does not become noticeably ill. If a person has a second DENV infection with a new DENV type, the primary response is to make heterotypic antibodies against cross-reactive antigens to the first DENV type. This process is called original antigenic sin. Memory B cells are responsible for the production of these heterotypic antibodies. During this second exposure, virgin B cells will also produce homotypic antibodies against the infecting DENV type.

  • Lactoferrin and Its Detection Methods: a Review
    nutrients Review Lactoferrin and Its Detection Methods: A Review Yingqi Zhang, Chao Lu and Jin Zhang * Department of Chemical and Biochemical Engineering, University of Western Ontario, London, ON N6A 5B9, Canada; [email protected] (Y.Z.); [email protected] (C.L.) * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: Lactoferrin (LF) is one of the major functional proteins in maintaining human health due to its antioxidant, antibacterial, antiviral, and anti-inflammatory activities. Abnormal levels of LF in the human body are related to some serious diseases, such as inflammatory bowel disease, Alzheimer’s disease and dry eye disease. Recent studies indicate that LF can be used as a biomarker for diagnosis of these diseases. Many methods have been developed to detect the level of LF. In this review, the biofunctions of LF and its potential to work as a biomarker are introduced. In addition, the current methods of detecting lactoferrin have been presented and discussed. We hope that this review will inspire efforts in the development of new sensing systems for LF detection. Keywords: lactoferrin; biomarkers; immunoassay; instrumental analysis; sensor 1. Introduction Lactoferrin (known as lactotransferrin, LF), with a molecular weight of about 80 kDa, is a functional glycoprotein, which contains about 690 amino acid residues. It was first isolated from bovine milk by Sorensen in 1939 and was first isolated from human milk by Citation: Zhang, Y.; Lu, C.; Zhang, J. Johanson in 1960 [1,2]. The three-dimensional structure of LF has been unveiled by high Lactoferrin and Its Detection resolution X-ray crystallographic analysis, and it consists of two homologous globular lobes Methods: A Review.

The SimpleStep ELISA® employs an affinity tag labeled capture antibody and a reporter conjugated detector antibody which immunocapture the sample analyte in solution. This entire complex (capture antibody/analyte/detector antibody) is in turn immobilized via immunoaffinity of an anti-tag antibody coating the well. To perform the assay, samples or standards are added to the wells, followed by the antibody mix. After incubation, the wells are washed to remove unbound material. TMB Development Solution is added and during incubation is catalyzed by HRP, generating blue coloration. This reaction is then stopped by addition of Stop Solution completing any color change from blue to yellow.

    Tests for Autoimmune Diseases Test Codes 249, 16814, 19946 Frequently Asked Questions Panel components may be ordered separately. Please see the Quest Diagnostics Test Center for ordering information. 1. Q: What are autoimmune diseases? A: “Autoimmune disease” refers to a diverse group of disorders that involve almost every one of the body’s organs and systems. It encompasses diseases of the nervous, gastrointestinal, and endocrine systems, as well as skin and other connective tissues, eyes, blood, and blood vessels. In all of these autoimmune diseases, the underlying problem is “autoimmunity”—the body’s immune system becomes misdirected and attacks the very organs it was designed to protect. 2. Q: Why are autoimmune diseases challenging to diagnose? A: Diagnosis is challenging for several reasons: 1. Patients initially present with nonspecific symptoms such as fatigue, joint and muscle pain, fever, and/or weight change. 2. Symptoms often flare and remit. 3. Patients frequently have more than 1 autoimmune disease. According to a survey by the Autoimmune Diseases Association, it takes up to 4.6 years and nearly 5 doctors for a patient to receive a proper autoimmune disease diagnosis.1 3. Q: How common are autoimmune diseases? A: At least 30 million Americans suffer from 1 or more of the 80 plus autoimmune diseases. On average, autoimmune diseases strike three times more women than men. Certain ones have an even higher female:male ratio. Autoimmune diseases are one of the top 10 leading causes of death among women age 65 and under2 and represent the fourth-largest cause of disability among women in the United States.3 Women’s enhanced immune system increases resistance to infection, but also puts them at greater risk of developing autoimmune disease than men.

These are primarily microbes (germs)—tiny, infection-causing Bacteria: organisms such as bacteria, viruses, streptococci parasites, and fungi. Because the human body provides an ideal environment for many microbes, they try to break in. It is the immune system’s job to keep them out or, failing that, to seek out and destroy them. Virus: When the immune system hits the wrong herpes virus target or is crippled, however, it can unleash a torrent of diseases, including allergy, arthritis, or AIDS. The immune system is amazingly complex. It can recognize and remember millions of Parasite: different enemies, and it can produce schistosome secretions and cells to match up with and wipe out each one of them.

  • B Cell Responses Against Influenza Viruses

Wilson 1,2 1 Section of Rheumatology, Department of Medicine, University of Chicago, Chicago, IL 60637, USA; [email protected] (H.A.U.); [email protected] (P.C.W.) 2 Committee on Immunology, University of Chicago, Chicago, IL 60637, USA * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: Antibodies are critical for providing protection against influenza virus infections. However, protective humoral immunity against influenza viruses is limited by the antigenic drift and shift of the major surface glycoproteins, hemagglutinin and neuraminidase. Importantly, people are exposed to influenza viruses throughout their life and tend to reuse memory B cells from prior exposure to generate antibodies against new variants. Despite this, people tend to recall memory B cells against constantly evolving variable epitopes or non-protective antigens, as opposed to recalling them against broadly neutralizing epitopes of hemagglutinin. In this review, we discuss the factors that impact the generation and recall of memory B cells against distinct viral antigens, as well as the immunological limitations preventing broadly neutralizing antibody responses. Lastly, we discuss how next-generation vaccine platforms can potentially overcome these obstacles to generate robust and long-lived protection against influenza A viruses.
