Innate immunity, assessed by plasma NO measurements, is not suppressed during the incubation fast in eiders [PDF]
Immunity is hypothesized to share limited resources with other physiological functions and may mediate life history trade-offs, for example between reproduction and survival.

A systematic review of the impact of psychosocial factors on immunity: Implications for enhancing BCG response against tuberculosis. [PDF]
Background: Tuberculosis (TB) remains an urgent global public health priority, causing 1.5 million deaths worldwide in 2018. There is evidence that psychosocial factors modulate immune function; however, how this may influence TB risk or BCG vaccine ...

ATR Kinase Is a Crucial Player Mediating the DNA Damage Response in Trypanosoma brucei
DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) are among the most deleterious lesions that threaten genome integrity. To address DSBs, eukaryotic cells of model organisms have evolved a complex network of cellular pathways that are able to detect DNA damage, activate a

Neurodegeneration: Potential Causes, Prevention, and Future Treatment Options [PDF]
Here I advance a hypothesis that neurodegeneration is a natural process associated with aging due to the loss of genetic redundancy following a mathematical model R(t) = R0(1-αe(βC+γI+δEt)t), where the calorie intake (C) and ...

Biofilm-stimulated epithelium modulates the inflammatory responses in co-cultured immune cells [PDF]
The gingival epithelium is a physical and immunological barrier to the microbiota of the oral cavity, which interact through soluble mediators with the immune cells that patrol the tissue at the gingival epithelium.

Global Transcriptomic Profiling of Bovine Endometrial Immune Response In Vitro. I. Effect of Lipopolysaccharide on Innate Immunity [PDF]
The dysregulation of endometrial immune response to bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) has been implicated in uterine disease and infertility in the postpartum dairy cow, although the mechanisms are not clear.

Intranasal Immunization Promotes Th17 Immune Responses [PDF]
Abstract Th17 cells are a lineage of CD4+ T cells characterized by IL-17 secretion, which plays a crucial role in immune responses against important respiratory pathogens, such as Mycobacterium tuberculosis. In this study, we demonstrated that intranasal (i.n.) immunization leads per se to Th17-biased immune responses, regardless of ...
