Posez n’importe quelle question sur les cours, conférences, exercices, recherches, actualités, etc. de l’EPFL ou essayez les exemples de questions ci-dessous.
AVERTISSEMENT : Le chatbot Graph n'est pas programmé pour fournir des réponses explicites ou catégoriques à vos questions. Il transforme plutôt vos questions en demandes API qui sont distribuées aux différents services informatiques officiellement administrés par l'EPFL. Son but est uniquement de collecter et de recommander des références pertinentes à des contenus que vous pouvez explorer pour vous aider à répondre à vos questions.
The molecular processes based on the specific receptor-ligand interactions (e.g. immune response to a foreign antigen, communication between nerve cells, etc.) are essential for a good and stable performance of living organisms. The aim of the present work ...
Natural antibodies provide an early defense mechanism against pathogens, show a frequent self-reactivity, and are present throughout life. Two questions concern the physiological control of self-reactivity and the pathogenetic link to autoimmune disease. H ...
The role of innate, alpha/beta interferon (IFN-alpha/beta)-dependent protection versus specific antibody-mediated protection against vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) was evaluated in IFN-alpha/beta receptor-deficient mice (IFN-alpha/beta R(0/0) mice). VSV ...
A murine hybridoma line (Zac3), secreting an IgA monoclonal antibody, was cultivated in different systems: a BALB/c mouse, a T-flask, a stirred-tank bioreactor and a hollow fiber reactor. These systems were characterized in terms of cell metab. and perform ...
Aeromonads are ubiquitous gram-negative bacteria found in aqueous environments. Some members of the genus are pathogenic for fish, reptiles and cows. In humans, Aeromonas infection is mainly associated with grastrointestinal diseases, but in immuno-comprom ...
The DNA binding domain (DBD) is the most mutated region of p53 in tumors and has proven to be relatively resistant to the generation of specific antibodies. Template assembled synthetic peptide (TASP) synthesis of a peptide derived from the DBD creates a h ...
The present study was designed to evaluate the effects of repeated exposure to escapable or inescapable shocks on subsequent behavior in an activity cage, and on the reactivity of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenocortical (HPA) axis and the immune system. ...
IgG autoantibodies against the alpha-chain of the high affinity IgE receptor are claimed to play a pathogenetic role in autoimmune urticaria. The best methods for detection of functional autoantibodies are currently the autologous serum skin test and the b ...
Neutralizing antibodies are necessary and sufficient for protection against infection with vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV). The in vitro neutralization capacities and in vivo protective capacities of a panel of immunoglobulin G monoclonal antibodies to th ...
Viruses that induce chronic infections can evade immune responses. HIV is a prototype of this class of pathogen. Not only does it mutate rapidly and make its surface components difficult to access by neutralizing antibodies, but it also creates cellular hi ...
