High Yersinia prevalence in tonsils of wild boars hunted in Northeast Germany using a novel protocol including long cold enrichment [PDF]
Microbiology SpectrumIn this study, the prevalence of Yersinia in wild boars in Northeast Germany was investigated. To also detect small numbers of the bacteria by the help of cold enrichment, tonsils of 81 wild boars hunted in 2023/2024 were stored for 12 weeks at 4°C ...

Role of Tonsillar Chronic Inflammation and Commensal Bacteria in the Pathogenesis of Pediatric OSA
Frontiers in Immunology, 2021 Immune responses at the boundary between the host and the world beyond are complex and mucosal tissue homeostasis relies on them. Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a syndrome suffered by children with hypertrophied tonsils. We have previously demonstrated

Robust memory humoral immune response to SARS-CoV-2 in the tonsils of adults and children
Frontiers in Immunology, 2023 BackgroundAdaptive humoral immunity against SARS-CoV-2 has mainly been evaluated in peripheral blood. Human secondary lymphoid tissues (such as tonsils) contain large numbers of plasma cells that secrete immunoglobulins at mucosal sites. Yet, the role of

CD4+CD8+ T follicular helper cells regulate humoral immunity in chronic inflammatory lesions
Frontiers in Immunology, 2022 T follicular helper (Tfh) cells drive humoral immunity by facilitating B cell responses at the initial and recall phases. Recent studies have indicated the possible involvement of Tfh cells in the process of chronic inflammation.
