Pediatric hypereosinophilia and toxoplasma: Peregrination beyond facileness

open access: yesJournal of Family Medicine and Primary Care, 2021
Evaluation of pediatric hypereosinophilia (HE) is challenging, especially in the tropical developing countries, as appropriate diagnostic facilities may be lacking, parasitic/helminthic infections are common, and existing data on the etiology of severe ...

The Interplay of Host Autophagy and Eukaryotic Pathogens

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2018
For intracellular pathogens, host cells provide a replicative niche, but are also armed with innate defense mechanisms to combat the intruder. Co-evolution of host and pathogens has produced a complex interplay of host-pathogen interactions during ...

C57BL/6 and 129 inbred mouse strains differ in Gbp2 and Gbp2b expression in response to inflammatory stimuli in vivo [version 1; peer review: 2 approved]

open access: yesWellcome Open Research, 2019
Background: Infections cause the production of inflammatory cytokines such as Interferon gamma (IFNγ). IFNγ in turn prompts the upregulation of a range of host defence proteins including members of the family of guanylate binding proteins (Gbps).
