Journal ArticleDOI
The cellular basis for lack of antibody response to hepatitis B vaccine in humans.
Eduardo Egea,Antonio Iglesias,Marcela Salazar,Chikao Morimoto,Margot S. Kruskall,Zuheir L. Awdeh,Stuart F. Schlossman,Chester A. Alper,Edmond J. Yunis +8 more
TL;DR: The results indicate that HBsAg nonresponding subjects have a very specific failure in antigen presentation or the stimulation of T helper cells, or both, and the evidence is against specific immune suppression as the basis for their nonresponsiveness.
Journal ArticleDOI
HLA associations in clozapine-induced agranulocytosis
Juan J. Yunis,Deyanira Corzo,Marcela Salazar,Jeffrey A. Lieberman,Alfreda Howard,Edrnond J. Yunis +5 more
TL;DR: The results show two associations and define the HLA allele markers for the Ashkenazi Jewish and non-Jewish haplotypes associated with CA and hypothesize that genes of the major histocompatability complex, other than class I and class II, are responsible for CA.
Journal ArticleDOI
Does hyperthermia increase apoptosis in white spot syndrome virus (WSSV)-infected Litopenaeus vannamei?
TL;DR: Results suggested that hyperthermia might facilitate apoptosis in WSSV-infected L. vannamei and might be one of the mechanisms responsible for increased survival of infected shrimp maintained at 32 degrees C.
Journal ArticleDOI
Major histocompatibility complex class II alleles and haplotypes and blood groups of four Amerindian tribes of Northern Colombia
Juan J. Yunis,Juan J. Yunis,Humberto Ossa,Marcela Salazar,Marcela Salazar,Maria B. Delgado,Richard Deulofeut,Antonio de la Hoz,David H. Bing,Oscar F. Ramos,Edmond J. Yunis,Emilio Yunis +11 more
TL;DR: Alleles and haplotypes of Caucasian and African origin were detected in the Wayú and Arhuaco and not in the Kogi or Arsario and will be important in disease association and transplantation studies for Amerindian and colombian populations.
Journal ArticleDOI
The major histocompatibility complex region marked by HSP70-1 and HSP70- 2 variants is associated with clozapine-induced agranulocytosis in two different ethnic groups
Deyanira Corzo,Juan J. Yunis,Marcela Salazar,Jeffrey A. Lieberman,Alfreda Howard,Zuheir L. Awdeh,Chester A. Alper,Edmond J. Yunis +7 more
TL;DR: The hypothesis that a dominant gene within the MHC region, but not necessarily HLA, is associated with CA in two different ethnic groups is supported.
