The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of clinical and subclinical mastitis on crossbred Murrah buffaloes on the physical, microbiological and immune characteristics of colostrum produced in relation to the passive immunity transfer efficiency in their respective calves. For this, 30 calf buffaloes and their calves were divided into t...
5 receptor of CD14+ cells. And taken together, these results suggest a novel role of virus-specific T cells in mediating enhancement of viral infection, and provide insights to understand the pathogenesis and complicated interactions between viruses and host immune cells.
OBJECTIVE: Inflammation and anti-inflammatory treatments might influence the risk of diabetes. The objective of this study was to assess factors associated with incident diabetes in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). METHODS: The study population consisted of RA patients from a multi-center cohort study, Corrona. To assess risk associated with disease modi...
mice showed an elevation in the IL-6 and TNF-alpha levels. In conclusion, we have shown that targeting the S segment of CCHFV can be considered for a practical way to develop a vaccine against this virus, because of its ability to induce an immune response, which leads to protection in the challenge assays in the interferon (IFN)-gamma defective mi...
BACKGROUND: Hyperendemic circulation of all four types of dengue virus (DENV-1-4) has expanded globally, fueling concern for increased incidence of severe dengue. While the majority of DENV infections are subclinical, epidemiologic studies suggest that type-cross-reactive immunity can influence disease outcome in subsequent infections. The mechanis...
Aerobic physical training is considered a therapy for chronic low-grade inflammatory diseases due to its anti-inflammatory response mediated by immune cells. The peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPAR-γ) is able to regulate the M1 (pro-inflammatory) and M2 (anti-inflammatory) polarization, as well as the immunometabolic response of ...
The objective of the present work was verify the dynamic of the cellular immune response in vitro using macrophages cultures of mice (J774A.1) when exposed to virulent, attenuated and saprophytic Leptospira samples, observed in eight time intervals after exposure: 1h, 3h, 6h, 12h, 24h, 36, 48h and 72h. The assays that determined the production of r...

Background/Aims: Increasing evidence has demonstrated the novel roles of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) in immunotherapy. However, difficulty in acquiring these cells and possible ethical issues limited their application. Recently, we have isolated a unique MSC population from dental follicles with potent stem cell-like properties. This study focuse...
Background: Avoidance of antigenic stimuli was found to significantly reverse airway obstruction of horses withsevere equine asthma (sEA). To date, no published study investigated the influence of steaming hay on lowerairway condition of sEA-affected horses. The objectives were to determine the clinical, cytological and cytokinerespiratory response...
