Extracorporeal Circulation-Related Immune Response
Forms of extracorporeal circulation are increasingly used to support critically ill patients. Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) and renal replacement therapy (RRT) are two of the most widely used and are employed as bridges to recovery or as ...

A strong immune response in young adult honeybees masks their increased susceptibility to infection compared to older bees [PDF]
Honeybees, Apis mellifera, show age-related division of labor in which young adults perform maintenance ("housekeeping") tasks inside the colony before switching to outside foraging at approximately 23 days old. Disease resistance is an important feature

Leishmania major Infection in Humanized Mice Induces Systemic Infection and Provokes a Nonprotective Human Immune Response [PDF]
Background: Leishmania (L.) species are the causative agent of leishmaniasis. Due to the lack of efficient vaccine candidates, drug therapies are the only option to deal with cutaneous leishmaniasis.

Persistence of the immune response induced by BCG vaccination. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Although BCG vaccination is recommended in most countries of the world, little is known of the persistence of BCG-induced immune responses. As novel TB vaccines may be given to boost the immunity induced by neonatal BCG vaccination, evidence ...

Anesthetics, immune cells, and immune responses
General anesthesia accompanied by surgical stress is considered to suppress immunity, presumably by directly affecting the immune system or activating the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis and the sympathetic nervous system. Along with stress such as surgery, blood transfusion, hypothermia, hyperglycemia, and postoperative pain, anesthetics per se ...

Control of immune responses by gene immunization
The use of plasmid DNA to elicit immune responses has greatly increased our ability to skew the desired immune response to a particular antigen. DNA immunization elicits potent cell-mediated responses including humoral immunity as well as cytolytic T-lymphocyte immunity.

Innate immune response to intramammary infection with Serratia marcescens and Streptococcus uberis [PDF]
Streptococcus uberis and Serratia marcescens are Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, respectively, that induce clinical mastitis. Once initial host barrier systems have been breached by these pathogens, the innate immune system provides the next ...

Immune Responses to Retroviruses [PDF]
Retroviruses are genome invaders that have shared a long history of coevolution with vertebrates and their immune system. Found endogenously in genomes as traces of past invasions, retroviruses are also considerable threats to human health when they exist as exogenous viruses such as HIV.
