Functional similarities between pigeon 'milk' and mammalian milk: induction of immune gene expression and modification of the microbiota. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Pigeon 'milk' and mammalian milk have functional similarities in terms of nutritional benefit and delivery of immunoglobulins to the young. Mammalian milk has been clearly shown to aid in the development of the immune system and microbiota of the young ...

Treatment with Docosahexaenoic Acid Improves Epidermal Keratinocyte Differentiation and Ameliorates Inflammation in Human Keratinocytes and Reconstructed Human Epidermis Models

open access: yesMolecules, 2019
Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic inflammatory skin disease that can cause skin barrier function damage. Although co-incubation with docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) exerts a positive effect on deficient skin models, no studies have investigated the effects ...

Pigeon breeders’ lung: pigeon intestinal mucin, an antigen distinct from pigeon IgA [PDF]

open access: yesClinical and Experimental Immunology, 1991
SUMMARY Antigens identified by indirect immunofluorescence staining and specific for sera from patients with pigeon breeders’ lung or healthy pigeon breeders, have been isolated from pigeon intestinal mucus. Two antigenic peaks, one pigeon intestinal mucin and the other IgA, were separated by equilibrium centrifugation of water-soluble ...

Relevance of skin-prick test and immunoglobulin E estimation in pigeon-exposure asthma patients

open access: yesEgyptian Journal of Chest Disease and Tuberculosis, 2021
Background Pigeon exposure is common in India due to its cultural and religious practice. Hypersensitivity to pigeon allergen is well known as pigeon breeder disease. Limited data also show that pigeon allergen was associated with increased asthma.

Investigation Into the Dynamics of the Cupula in the Vestibular Organ of Adult Zebrafish Using Metabolic Glycoengineering

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
The cupula is a membrane within the vestibular organ that senses rotatory accelerations of the head. Metabolic glycoengineering in combination with bioorthogonal labeling demonstrates that in adult zebrafish – being a model for the human inner ear – this membrane is constantly renewed.
