Exploring the influence of probiotic administration routes on immune responses in atopic march

Frontiers in Immunology
BackgroundChildren with atopic dermatitis (AD) have a higher likelihood of developing asthma, the so-called atopic march. Previous studies have suggested that probiotics can modulate development of the immune system and atopic disorders.

Intraganglionic signaling as a novel nasal-meningeal pathway for TRPA1-dependent trigeminovascular activation by inhaled environmental irritants. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
Headache is the most common symptom associated with air pollution, but little is understood about the underlying mechanism. Nasal administration of environmental irritants activates the trigeminovascular system by a TRPA1-dependent process.

Mucosal Immune Response in Nasal-Associated Lymphoid Tissue upon Intranasal Administration by Adjuvants

Journal of Innate Immunity, 2018
The nasal administration of vaccines directed against diseases caused by upper respiratory tract infections of pathogens, such as the influenza virus, mimics the natural infection of pathogens and induces immunoglobulin A (IgA) production in the nasal ...

Multivalent Protein Nanorings for Broad and Potent SARS‐CoV‐2 Neutralization

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A protein‐only, modular multivalent nanoscaffold displaying 20 anchor points, decorated with two different binders (10 of each), targeting the SARS‐CoV‐2 receptor‐binding domain is presented. The construct self‐assembles into stable, biocompatible, homogeneous nanoparticles, exhibit synergistic binding with fM IC50 values. It also detects spike at 9 ng

Comparing the immune response to a novel intranasal nanoparticle PLGA vaccine and a commercial BPI3V vaccine in dairy calves [PDF]

, 2015
peer-reviewedBackground There is a need to improve vaccination against respiratory pathogens in calves by stimulation of local immunity at the site of pathogen entry at an early stage in life. Ideally such a vaccine preparation would not be inhibited by

Administration Strategy-Dependent Mechanisms and Effects of Human Adipose Tissue Stem Cell Extracellular Vesicles in Mouse Allergic Rhinitis Treatment

Cell Transplantation
We previously found that intravenous injection of extracellular vesicles (EVs) from human adipose tissue–derived stem cells (hADSC) could ameliorate allergic rhinitis (AR) in mice through immunomodulatory effects.
