The Role of microRNAs in Pulp Inflammation
Cells, 2021 The dental pulp can be affected by thermal, physical, chemical, and bacterial phenomena that stimulate the inflammatory response. The pulp tissue produces an immunological, cellular, and vascular reaction in an attempt to defend itself and resolve the ...

Royal Decree: Gene Expression in Trans-Generationally Immune Primed Bumblebee Workers Mimics a Primary Immune Response. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 Invertebrates lack the cellular and physiological machinery of the adaptive immune system, but show specificity in their immune response and immune priming. Functionally, immune priming is comparable to immune memory in vertebrates. Individuals that have

Shaping of microbial phenotypes by trade-offs
Nature CommunicationsGrowth rate maximization is an important fitness strategy for microbes. However, the wide distribution of slow-growing oligotrophic microbes in ecosystems suggests that rapid growth is often not favored across ecological environments.

The characteristics of actinomyces strptomyces griseorubiginosus 83 – the effective biosorbent of silver [PDF]
E3S Web of Conferences, 2023 The bacteria bound about the same amount of silver at the time of inoculation and when added after 24 hours Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and measurements of the ζ- potential showed that several groups, mainly carboxy groups are ...
