ABSTRACT
Background: Thirty percent of diabetic patients with polyneuropathy suffer from balance disturbance. Unsteadiness during standing and walking is a frequent complaint in such patients. Objective: To evaluate proprioception and vestibular function in patients with diabetic sensory polyneuropathy and to determine the effect of their disturbance on balance in such patients. Methods: This study included 60 subjects divided into two groups: group (1): included 30 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus suffering from sensory polyneuropathy and group (2): included 30 age and sex-matched healthy subjects. All participants were subjected to complete clinical assessment. The dynamic balance was assessed clinically by Berg balance scale (BBS) and laboratory using the Balance Master system. Results: Scores of BBS were significantly lower in group (1) than group (2). In addition, Limits of Stability (LOS) test revealed a highly significant increase in the reaction time in all directions, a significant decrease in movement velocity, end excursion and directional control in all directions in group 1 than group (2). Furthermore, a highly significant decrease in the mean values of the SOT was found in group 1 in all conditions. Also, a statistically significant negative correlation was detected between balance score and age in both groups. Conclusion: There is an effect of sensory disturbance on balance in patients with diabetic polyneuropathy, which could aggravate the risk of falls in such patients. [Egypt J Neurol Psychiat Neurosurg

Since the mid 1980s, recombinant DNA technology has enabled thedevelopment of a wide diversity of vectors for expression of the desired recombinant protein innumerous prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms. Baculovirus expression vector system is consideredone of the most successful and widely acceptable means for the production of recombinant proteins inextremely large quantities.

Since the mid 1980s, recombinant DNA technology has enabled the development of a wide diversity of vectors for expression of the desired recombinant protein in numerous prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms. Baculovirus expression vector system is considered one of the most successful and widely acceptable means for production of recombinant proteins in extremely large quantities. Proper posttranslational modifications of the expressed proteins in insect cells, the usual host of baculoviruses, get them soluble, correctly folded and biologically active products. Along with the convenient biological safety, the easy scale up production of recombinant proteins into industrial levels brings this system the first choice in most cases. In the current review, different aspects of the baculovirus biology, structure and morphology are briefly covered to establish the basic concepts important for understanding the mechanisms involved in utilization of baculoviruses as expression vectors. Few outlines on the baculovirus expression system are discussed in terms of potentials, limitations, strategies and perspectives.
