Open AccessSynergistic effects of baicalein with cefotaxime against Klebsiella pneumoniae through inhibiting CTX-M-1 gene expression
Generation of extended- spectrum β- lactamases is one of the major mechanisms by which clinical Klebsiella pneumoniae develop resistance to antibiotics. Combined antibiotics prove to be a relatively effective met...

Open AccessProtease 2A induces stress granule formation during coxsackievirus B3 and enterovirus 71 infections
Stress granules (SGs) are granular aggregates in the cytoplasm that are formed under a variety of stress situations including viral infection. Previous studies indicate that poliovirus, a member of Picornaviridae

TAK1 inhibitor 5Z-7-oxozeaenol sensitizes neuroblastoma to chemotherapy
Treatment failure in high risk neuroblastoma is largely due to development of chemoresistance. NF-κB activation is one of the resistance mechanisms for cancer cells to escape from chemotherapy-induced cell-dea...

Open AccessCharacteristics and PD-1 expression of peripheral CD4+CD127loCD25hiFoxP3+ Treg cells in chronic HCV infected-patients
Both regulatory T cells (Tregs) and PD-1/PD-L1 pathway were critically involved in HCV viral persistence. However, the association between them was not well investigated. Herein, we aimed to investigate the di...

Open AccessPD-1 expression on peripheral CD8+ TEM/TEMRA subsets closely correlated with HCV viral load in chronic hepatitis C patients
Tight correlation between host circulating CD8+ T cell-mediated immune response and control of viral replication is classical characteristic of long-term HCV infection. CD8+ T cell maturation/activation marker...

Distributional characteristics of CD25 and CD127 on CD4+ T cell subsets in chronic HCV infection
Attenuated CD4+ T-cell-mediated immune responses are involved in persistence of HCV infection, but the mechanism remains undefined. In this study, the proportions of CD4+ T cell subsets, naïve, central memory,...
