Immune cell profile and metabolic preference following intramuscular lipopolysaccharide injection of highly inbred and advanced intercross genetic lines

Frontiers in Veterinary Science
Lipopolysaccharide (LPS), a gram-negative bacterial cell wall component commonly used in animal models of inflammation, is also universally found in poultry environments. Documented LPS effects in production animals include reduced feed intake and weight

The Effects of Acute Lipopolysaccharide Induced Inflammation on Spinal Cord Excitability [PDF]

, 2018
Peripheral inflammation alters the excitability of dorsal horn interneurons and increases flexor reflex strength (Dubner & Ruda, 1992); however, its effect on the spinal stretch reflex is not well understood. The stretch reflex is a muscle contraction in

Biomimetic Nanovaccine Integrating Dendritic Cell Exosomes with Tumor Cell Membranes for Sustained Prophylaxis Against Glioblastoma

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
We have developed DEX/GM, an all‐natural, personalizable hybrid vaccine designed by coating dendritic cell‐derived exosomes (DEX) onto tumor cell membranes (GM) for sustained prophylaxis against glioblastoma (GBM). ABSTRACT Glioblastoma (GBM), one of the most aggressive and lethal brain tumors, remains incurable with a poor clinical prognosis.
