Thyroid hormone deficiency during gestation and its effects on the immune response against a streptococcus pneumoniae infection in the offspring

For this reason, we studied the induction of different innate immune molecules at early stages of infection, in different lung anatomic compartments, aiming to discern the cytokine

 The expansionary monetary policy measures have had a negative impact on net interest margins both via the reduction in interest rates and –less powerfully- the flattening of the

Jointly estimate this entry game with several outcome equations (fees/rates, credit limits) for bank accounts, credit cards and lines of credit. Use simulation methods to

The lytA mutant had higher levels of CRP, C1q, and C3b binding to its surface than the ply mutant, and the ply lytA double mutant had increased levels of C3b deposition compared

To test the efficacy of telomerase gene therapy in our mouse model of pulmonary fibrosis induced by DNA damage to the lungs (ie.,low-dose bleomycin) and the presence of short

In this work we demonstrate that these receptors control hepatic cytokine production and signalling during sepsis in vivo and that the thyroid hormone directly antagonizes IL-6

SCs are not depleted in the bulges of TR-deficient mice The skin phenotype of mice with defective thyroid hormone signal- ing (reduced response to proliferative stimuli, retarded

In order to characterize whether the ISG15 antiviral activity observed in animal models is cell-type specific and to further characterize its implication in the immune response, we
