Circulating cytokine and chemokine profiles of Trypanosoma cruzi-infected women during pregnancy and its association with congenital transmission
(University of Chicago Press, 2021-01)
Trypanosoma cruzi, the causative agent of Chagas disease, can be transmitted to the offspring of infected women, which constitutes an epidemiologically significant parasite transmission route in non-endemic areas. It is ...
Effect of Yoghurt on the Cytokine Profile using a Murine Model of Intestinal Inflammation
(SAGE Publications, 2017-12)
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), including Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, are important problems in industrialized countries. The complete aetiology of both diseases is still unknown but likely involves genetic, ...
Serum cytokines as biomarkers of early trypanosoma cruzi infection by congenital exposure
(American Association of Immunologists, 2016-06)
Trypanosoma cruzi, the causing agent of Chagas disease, leads to an activation of the immune system in congenitally infected infants. In this study, we measured a set of cytokines/chemokines and the levels of parasitemia ...
Immunohistochemical detection of pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory cytokines in granulomas in cattle with natural Mycobacterium bovis infection
(2017)
Cellular immune response was evaluated in lymph nodes and lung with different granulomatous lesions from cattle naturally infected with Mycobacterium bovis. For this purpose, we assessed pro-inflammatory and anti-inflamm ...
Quantitation of cytokine gene expression by real time PCR in bovine milk and colostrum cells from cows immunized with abovine rotavirus VP6 experimental vaccine
(Elsevier, 2013-10)
In a previous work, VP6 recombinant protein was produced using baculovirus system and it was evaluated in a colostrum-deprived calf model. This vaccine was able to protect calves against viral challenge without inducing ...
Evaluation of the transcriptional status of host cytokines and viral genes in the trachea of vaccinated and non-vaccinated chickens after challenge with the infectious laryngotracheitis virus
(Taylor & Francis, 2016)
Infectious laryngotracheitis is a highly contagious disease of chickens responsible for significant
economic losses for the poultry industry worldwide. The disease is caused by Gallid herpesvirus-1
(GaHV-1) commonly known ...
Higher placental anti-inflammatory IL-10 cytokine expression in HIV-1 infected women receiving longer zidovudine prophylaxis associated with nevirapine
(Bentham Science Publishers, 2009-12)
Placental cytokine balance may be critical for the control of mother-to-child transmission (MTCT) of HIV. We assessed whether the type and duration of antiretrovirals used for prevention of HIV-1-MTCT modified the inflammatory ...
Evaluation of the placental environment with a new in vitro model of histocultures of early and term placentae: determination of cytokine and chemokine expression profiles
(W B Saunders Co Ltd, 2005-02)
We aimed to set up and validate a new in vitro model of placental histocultures, for the evaluation of cytokine and chemokine profiles of the placental environment, over a long culture period. Micro-explant cultures from ...
The neurotoxic effect of cuprizone on oligodendrocytes depends on the presence of pro-inflammatory cytokines secreted by microglia
(Springer/Plenum Publishers, 2007-12)
In order to further characterize the still unknown mechanism of cuprizone-induced demyelination, we investigated its effect on rat primary oligodendroglial cell cultures. Cell viability was not significantly affected by ...
Alteration of neurotrophin and cytokine expression in lymphocytes as novel peripheral markers of spatial memory deficits induced by prenatal stress
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2017-05)
Much evidence has suggested that early life adversity can have a lasting effect on behavior. The aim of this study was to explore the impact of prenatal exposure to stress on cognition in adult life and how it impacts ...
