Prevalence and Correlates of Environmental Enteric Dysfunction Among Young Children in Bangladesh
ABSTRACT Bangladesh continues to experience high levels of child undernutrition, with stunting affecting approximately 24% of children under 5 years of age. Environmental enteric dysfunction (EED), a subclinical intestinal disorder characterized by chronic inflammation, immune activation, and nutrient malabsorption, may reduce the effectiveness of ...

Association Between Neopterin Production and other Parameters in a Population of Blood Donors
Neopterin is released from human monocyte-derived macrophages preferentially upon stimulation with the Thlcell cytokine interferon-γ. In humans, increased concentrations of neopterin in serum and urine have been found in viral infections including human ...

Immune Evasion of Helicobacter pylori and Extra‐Gastric Cancer Risk
ABSTRACT Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is a group 1 gastric carcinogen that plays a significant role in extra‐gastric digestive system cancers. H. pylori disrupts host cell homeostasis through expression of virulence factors leading to immune evasion as well as persistent gastric mucosal colonization. H. pylori infection has been shown to play a role
