Low-dose intestinal Trichuris muris infection alters the lung immune microenvironment and can suppress allergic airway inflammation [PDF]
, 2016 Immunological cross talk between mucosal tissues such as the intestine and the lung is poorly defined during homeostasis and disease. Here, we show that a low-dose infection with the intestinally restricted helminth parasite Trichuris muris results in ...

Journal of Veterinary Internal Medicine, Volume 37, Issue 1, Page 338-348, January/February 2023., 2023 Abstract Background Racehorses commonly develop evidence of mild asthma in response to dust exposure. Diets deficient in omega‐3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (Ω‐3) might exacerbate this response. Hypothesis To compare dust exposure, bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) cytology, and plasma Ω‐3 and specialized pro‐resolving mediators (SPM) concentrations ...

Increased Hematopoietic Extracellular RNAs and Vesicles in the Lung during Allergic Airway Responses. [PDF]
, 2019 Extracellular RNAs (exRNAs) can be released by numerous cell types in vitro, are often protected within vesicles, and can modify recipient cell function. To determine how the composition and cellular sources of exRNAs and the extracellular vesicles (EVs)

Journal of Veterinary Internal Medicine, Volume 37, Issue 1, Page 328-337, January/February 2023., 2023 Abstract Background The diagnostic value of allergen‐specific immunoglobulin E (IgE) in horses with asthma is uncertain. A recently developed protein microarray detected abnormally high latex‐specific IgE concentrations in the serum of horses with severe asthma.

Bronchoalveolar lavage fluid lymphocytosis in 104 dogs (2006‐2016)
Journal of Veterinary Internal Medicine, 2019 Background Bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid cytology and culture are used to characterize respiratory diseases in dogs. Little is known about disorders associated with increased numbers of lymphocytes in BAL fluid.

On the classification of incompressible fluids and a mathematical analysis of the equations that govern their motion [PDF]
, 2019 In the first part of the paper we provide a new classification of incompressible fluids characterized by a continuous monotone relation between the velocity gradient and the Cauchy stress. The considered class includes Euler fluids, Navier-Stokes fluids, classical power-law fluids as well as stress power-law fluids, and their various generalizations ...

Using Interleukin 6 and 8 in Blood and Bronchoalveolar Lavage Fluid to Predict Survival in Hematological Malignancy Patients With Suspected Pulmonary Mold Infection. [PDF]
, 2019 Background: Molds and other pathogens induce elevated levels of several cytokines, including interleukin (IL)-6 and IL-8. The objective of this study was to investigate the prognostic value of IL-6 and IL-8 as well as fungal biomarkers in blood and ...

Topography of the respiratory, oral, and guttural pouch bacterial and fungal microbiotas in horses
Journal of Veterinary Internal Medicine, Volume 37, Issue 1, Page 349-360, January/February 2023., 2023 Abstract Background The lower respiratory tract microbiota of the horse is different in states of health and disease, but the bacterial and fungal composition of the healthy respiratory tract of the horse has not been studied in detail. Hypothesis The respiratory tract environment contains distinct niche microbiotas, which decrease in species richness ...
