High quality purification of German cockroach vitellin/vitellogenin from whole body acetone defatted powder
German cockroach (Blattella germanica; GCr) is a source of indoor aeroallergens associated with allergic rhinitis and asthma. Vitellin/vitellogenin, a high molecular mass and abundant protein in GCr eggs and egg cases, has been identified as a possible allergen serologically. To better study its allergenic properties we purified vitellin/vitellogenin from whole body defatted GCr powder, a readily available source material.

Different paterns of autoAbs in asthma-COPD overlap cogort
The high heterogeneity of bronchial asthma (BA) and COPD endotypes and the lack of effective tools for early prognosis of its further progression and overlap (ACO) still represent the priority tasks in respiratory medicine. We have evaluated autoreactivity profiles in patients with chronic immune-mediated respiratory diseases: BA, COPD and their overlap ACO (155 patients in total), using modified quantitative ELISA for detection of IgE and IgG4-ABs to commercial tissue antigens of epithelial keratin, type III and VI collagens, myosin and elastin (Sigma USA), conjugates of monoclonal anti-IgE or anti-IgG4 Abs(Polygnost, Rus...
