The Role of Dendritic Signaling in the Anesthetic Suppression of Consciousness [PDF]
AbstractAbstract Despite considerable progress in the identification of the molecular targets of general anesthetics, it remains unclear how these drugs affect the brain at the systems level to suppress consciousness. According to recent proposals, anesthetics may achieve this feat by interfering with corticocortical top–down processes, that ...

Tolerogenic dendritic cells suppress titanium particle‑induced inflammation
Aseptic loosening is a major complication of prosthetic joint surgery. The leading cause of arthroplasty failure is particulate wear debris such as titanium particles. Dendritic cells (DCs) are one type of immune cells that play an important role in the initiation and progression of inflammatory processes. DCs can develop into tolerogenic DCs (tolDCs),

Berberine Suppresses Th17 and Dendritic Cell Responses
Berberine (BBR) has been shown to exert immunosuppressive and anti-inflammatory effects in several autoimmune diseases. This study was designed to investigate the possible effect of BBR on Th17 and dendritic cell (DC) responses.Twelve patients with active VKH disease and 20 healthy individuals were enrolled in this study.

Prednisolone Suppresses the Function and Promotes Apoptosis of Plasmacytoid Dendritic Cells [PDF]
Organ transplant recipients are highly susceptible to viral infections early after transplantation. Plasmacytoid dendritic cells (PDC) play a major role in antiviral immunity. Therefore, we determined the numbers of circulating PDC after liver transplantation (LTX) and established the effects of immunosuppressive drugs on PDC survival and function. PDC

Mycobacteria Target DC-SIGN to Suppress Dendritic Cell Function [PDF]
Mycobacterium tuberculosis represents a world-wide health risk and immunosuppression is a particular problem in M. tuberculosis infections. Although macrophages are primarily infected, dendritic cells (DCs) are important in inducing cellular immune responses against M. tuberculosis. We hypothesized that DCs represent a target for M.

A biophysical mechanism for preferred direction enhancement in fly motion vision.
Seeing the direction of motion is essential for survival of all sighted animals. Consequently, nerve cells that respond to visual stimuli moving in one but not in the opposite direction, so-called 'direction-selective' neurons, are found abundantly.
