Lipidomics refers to the study of the complete set of lipids in an organism or cell and their functions, and spatial lipidomics is used to understand where these lipids are located within the cell or tissue and how this spatial information can be used to gain insight into the cellular processes and diseases.

Domaine(s)
  • Biochimie
  • Biologie moléculaire
OBS

La lipidomique spatiale a pour objet d'étude l'emplacement des lipides au sein des cellules ou des tissus.

Recombinant soluble CD4(rsCD4, rCD4) : rCD4 is a soluble form of the CD4 receptors attached to the surface of T4 cells. rCd4 is produced by recombinant DNA biotechnology using mammalian and insect cell lines. HIV binds to CD4 in order to gain entry into the cells. The hope is that rsCd4 when given to patients, will bind to the virus and neutralize it.

OBS

La protéine CD4 soluble, synthétisée par génie génétique, pourrait servir de leurre-chélateur du V.I.H. Elle se fixerait sur la gp120 du V.I.H.,empêchant sa liaison sur le récepteur membranaire des lymphocytes T4. De nombreuses formes de CD4 solubles ont été obtenues par la technologie de l'ADN recombinant (rCD4). Ces rCD4 inhibent l'infection par le VIH, ainsi que la réplication de la fusion cellulaire induite par le VIH. (D'après les sources c et d).

OBS

Recombinant ou mieux encore recombiné: qui est synthétisé par génie génétique.

Recent media reports have painted a relentlessly gloomy picture of the status of AIDS drug development. Yet much useful information on treatment emerged at the 10th International Conference on AIDS in Yokohama, Japan(August 7-12, 1994). Encouraging treatment developments presented in Yokohama include the following : Recombinant human growth hormone therapy significantly increases weight gain as represented by fat-free lean body mass among people with AIDS-related wasting. AZT treatment dramatically reduces the rate of HIV transmission from mother to infant. Acyclovir co-treatment with anti-HIV therapy significantly increases survival time among people with AIDS. Oral ganciclovir appears to be an effective primary prophylaxis for cytomegalovirus disease. The protease inhibitor drug saquinavir reduces viral load and increases CD4 cell counts significantly more when used in a triple combination with AZT and ddC compared to 2 double combinations(AZT plus ddC or saquinavir plus AZT). Quantitative polymerase chain reaction(PCR) and branched chain DNA(bDNA) testing for measuring HIV load is expected to become a major new tool to help guide individual treatment decisions and to evaluate anti-HIV therapies in clinical studies.

CONT

The signal is filtered after the correlator so that the interfering signals are reduced by the ratio of the bandwidth before and after the correlator. This signal improvement is called the processing gain and is a major factor in determining the CDMA [code division multiple access] digital cellular system capacity. Other important parameters are the... efficiency of frequency reuse, number of cell sectors, and voice duty cycle.
