Alterations in Nitric Oxide Synthase Activity and Expression in Submandibular Glands of NOD Mice
(Academic Press Inc Elsevier Science, 2001-10)
Abstract The non-obese diabetic (NOD) mouse model of autoimmune sialadenitis offers the possibility of studying the L-arginine/nitric oxide signaling pathway in salivary glands in basal and neurotransmitter-stimulated ...
Chronic pelvic pain development and prostate inflammation in strains of mice with different susceptibility to Experimental Autoimmune Prostatitis
(Wiley, 2017-01)
Experimental autoimmune prostatitis (EAP) is an autoimmune inflammatory disease of the prostate characterized by peripheral prostate-specific autoimmune responses associated with prostate inflammation. EAP is induced in ...
Development of a lateral flow test for the rapid detection of Avibacterium paragallinarum in chickens suspected of having infectious coryza
(BioMed Central, 2018)
Background: Infectious coryza (IC) is an acute respiratory disease of growing chickens and layers caused by Avibacterium paragallinarum. The development of tools that allow rapid pathogen detection is necessary in order ...
Myeloid-derived suppressor cells are key players in the resolution of inflammation during a model of acute infection
(Wiley VCH Verlag, 2014-02)
Myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) are key players in the immune suppressivenetwork. During acute infection with the causative agent of Chagas disease,Trypanosomacruzi, BALB/c mice show less inflammation and better ...
Insight into the effect of the vasopressin analog desmopressin on lung colonization by mammary carcinoma cells in BALB/c mice
(Int Inst Anticancer Research, 2014-07)
Background/Aim: Desmopressin (dDAVP) is a synthetic peptide analog of vasopressin with antidiuretic and hemostatic properties. Recent experimental evidence suggested that dDAVP can inhibit metastasis formation by agonist ...
Macromolecular biosynthetic parameters and metabolic profile in different life stages of Leishmania braziliensis: Amastigotes as a functionally less active stage
(Public Library of Science, 2017)
It was recently hypothesized that Leishmania amastigotes could constitute a semi-quiescent stage characterized by low replication and reduced metabolic activity. This concept developed with Leishmania (Leishmania) mexicana ...
Influence of prenatal stress on metabolic abnormalities induced by postnatal intake of a high-fat diet in BALB/c mice
(Cambridge University Press, 2020-10)
Prenatal insults during fetal development result in increased likelihood of developing chronic disease. Obesity, the biggest risk factor for the development of metabolic disease, is affected by several genetic and environmental ...
Leishmania amazonensis META2 protein confers protection against heat shock and oxidative stress
(Elsevier, 2011)
The META cluster of Leishmania amazonensis contains both META1 and META2 genes, which are upregulated in metacyclic promastigotes and encode proteins containing the META domain. Previous studies defined META2 as a 48.0-kDa ...
Activation of Peptidylarginine Deiminase in the Salivary Glands of Balb/c Mice Drives the Citrullination of Ro and La Ribonucleoproteins
(Hindawi, 2017-11-26)
The goal of the present study was to determine whether peptidylarginine deiminase PAD2 and PAD4 enzymes are present in Balb/c mouse salivary glands and whether they are able to citrullinate Ro and La ribonucleoproteins. ...
