Clinical trial number NCT04452318 for "COVID-19 Study Assessing the Efficacy and Safety of Anti-Spike SARS CoV-2 Monoclonal Antibodies for Prevention of SARS CoV-2 Infection Asymptomatic in Healthy Adults and Adolescents Who Are Household Contacts to an Individual With a Positive SARS-CoV-2 RT-PCR Assay" at ClinicalTrials.gov
Seroconversion. In immunology, seroconversion is the development of specific antibodies in the blood serum as a result of infection or immunization, including vaccination. [ 1][ 2] During infection or immunization, antigens enter the blood, and the immune system begins to produce antibodies in response.
COVID-19 testing involves analyzing samples to assess the current or past presence of SARS-CoV-2, the virus that cases COVID-19 and is responsible for the COVID-19 pandemic. The two main types of tests detect either the presence of the virus or antibodies produced in response to infection. [ 1][ 2] Molecular tests for viral presence through its ...
P1PK (formerly: P) is a human blood group system ( International Society of Blood Transfusion system 003) based upon the A4GALT gene on chromosome 22. The P antigen (later renamed P1) was first described by Karl Landsteiner and Philip Levine in 1927. [ 1] The P1PK blood group system consists of three glycosphingolipid antigens: P k, P1 and NOR ...
ABO blood group antigens present on red blood cells and IgM antibodies present in the serum. The ABO blood group system is used to denote the presence of one, both, or neither of the A and B antigens on erythrocytes (red blood cells). [ 1] For human blood transfusions, it is the most important of the 44 different blood type (or group ...
Betacoronavirus cameli [ 1] ( also known as Middle East respiratory syndrome–related coronavirus abbreviated as MERS-CoV ), [ 2] or EMC/2012 ( HCoV-EMC/2012 ), is the virus that causes Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS). [ 3][ 4] It is a species of coronavirus which infects humans, bats, and camels. [ 5]
The function of the spike glycoprotein is to mediate viral entry into the host cell by first interacting with molecules on the exterior cell surface and then fusing the viral and cellular membranes. Spike glycoprotein is a class I fusion protein that contains two regions, known as S1 and S2, responsible for these two functions.
The most clinically relevant anti-thyroid autoantibodies are anti- thyroid peroxidase antibodies (anti-TPO antibodies, TPOAb), thyrotropin receptor antibodies (TRAb) and thyroglobulin antibodies (TgAb). TRAb's are subdivided into activating, blocking and neutral antibodies, depending on their effect on the TSH receptor.
