THE PROPHYLAXIS OF WEIL'S DISEASE (SPIROCHAETOSIS ICTEROHAEMORRHAGICA).

We have already described briefly the portals of entry and of excretion of the pathogenic spirochetes. We may mention here that we have twic … y. On the injection of 0.1 gm. of rat urine which contains Spirochaeta icterohaemorrhagiae into the peritoneal cavity of guinea pigs, the infection arises, while the injection of the liver or the blood of the rats into guinea pigs does not produce the typical disease. The finding that the kidneys of rats contain the pathogenic organisms of the disease is important …

The 5-enolpyruvylshikimate-3-phosphate synthase of glyphosate-tolerant soybean expressed in Escherichia coli shows no severe allergenicity.

The recombinant gene was amplified from the chromosomal DNA of genetically-modified (GM) soybeans and identified as epsps encoding 5-enolpyruvylshikimate-3-phosphate synthase (EPSPS) which renders glyphosate resistance. The epsps structural gene was introduced in the pET28(a) plasmid for its expression in Escherichia coli BL21(DE3). It was confirmed that the maximal productivity of the EPSPS protein was achieved when cultivating the recombinant strain in a LB broth for 2 h after supplementing 1 mM isopropylbeta-D-thiogalactopyranoside (IPTG) in a 2 h-culture broth. Since the expressed EPSPS pr

[Complications in laparoscopic cholecystectomy].

INTRODUCTION: For more than a century classical cholecystectomy has been a method of choice in surgical management of gallbladder diseases. At the end of eighties and at the beginning of nineties of this century, laparoscopic cholecystectomy has been introduced gradually taking the place of classical. Numerous studies deal with complications associated with this surgical procedure. COMPLICATIONS RELATED TO INSERTION OF VERESS NEEDLE: During insertion of Veress needle, injuries of the frontal abdominal wall may occur (9). Insertion of the needle into the peritoneal cavity may cause: injury of …

Deletion, but not anergy, is involved in TGF-beta-treated antigen-presenting cell-induced tolerance.

Intravenous injection of transforming growth factor (TGF-)-beta-treated antigen-presenting cells (APC) pulsed with antigen induces antigen-specific tolerance in both naive and previously primed mice. Although TGF-beta-treated APC-induced tolerance is associated with induction of regulatory T cells and impaired delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH) responses, the specific mechanisms that mediate this tolerance are not currently known. The goal of the present report was to study the mechanisms involved in TGF-beta-treated APC-induced tolerance by determining the fate of the antigen-specific effect

A Rare Case of Intraperitoneal Infection by Kodamaea ohmeri.

BACKGROUND: In April 2024, our hospital confirmed a rare case of intra-abdominal infection by Kodamaea ohmeri. The patient sought medical attention at our hospital after taking painkillers orally for one month, experiencing recurrent abdominal pain for 17 days and worsening for 7 days. In March 2024, the patient received symptomatic treatment with oral analgesics (diclofenac sodium) for arthritis. After 2 weeks of medication, the patient experi-enced upper abdominal colic without any additional triggers. After 3 weeks of medication, the abdominal pain sig-nificantly worsened compared to before

Ascites Index - an attempt to objectify the assessment of ascites.

IntroductionAscites is observed in cancer patients as well as in other non-neoplastic processes. In some patients, it may cause severe symptoms that can become directly life-threatening. The assessment of the degree of ascites seems useful in the determination of treatment effects as well as in the monitoring of fluid accumulation and early planning of decompression procedures.AimDetermination of the clinical usefulness of a quantitative method of determining the degree of ascites, so-called Ascites Index.Material and methodsThe Ascites Index is an ultrasonographic way of assessing the grade o
