Interplay between thermal and immune ecology: Effect of environmental temperature on insect immune response and energetic costs after an immune challenge
(Elsevier, 2012)
Although the study of thermoregulation in insects has shown that infected animals tend to prefer higher
temperatures than healthy individuals, the immune response and energetic consequences of this preference
remain ...
Immunization with antigen-pulsed dendritic cells significantly improves the immune response to weak self-antigens
(ELSEVIER GMBH, 2005-09-02)
Dendritic cells (DCs) are the only professional antigen-presenting cells endowed with the ability to stimulate naı¨ve T
cells and initiate a primary immune response. For this reason, DC-based immunization has been shown ...
Interplay between behavioural thermoregulation and immune response in mealworms
(2012)
Since the preferential body temperature should positively correlate with physiological performance, behavioural fever should enhance an organism's immune response under an immune challenge. Here we have studied the ...
The zebrafish perivitelline fluid provides maternally-inherited defensive immunity
(MDPI, 2020)
In the teleost egg, the embryo is immersed in an extraembryonic fluid that fills the space between the embryo and the chorion and partially isolates it from the external environment, called the perivitelline fluid (PVF). ...
The Unfolded protein response in immune cells as an emerging regulator of neuroinflammation
(Frontiers Media, 2021)
Immune surveillance is an essential process that safeguards the homeostasis of a healthy brain. Among the increasing diversity of immune cells present in the central nervous system (CNS), microglia have emerged as a prominent ...
Genetic polymorphisms in the immune response: A focus on kidney transplantation
(Elsevier, 2016)
The modulation of the immune system following solid organ transplantation has made considerable progress with new immunosuppressive regimens and has considerably improved rejections rates. The improvement in long-term ...
Stage-specific role of interferon-gamma in experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis and multiple sclerosis
(Frontiers Media, 2015)
The role of interferon (IFN)-gamma in multiple sclerosis (MS) and its animal model, experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE), has remained as an enigmatic paradox for more than 30 years. Several studies attribute ...
Nutritional ecology and ecological immunology in degus: Does early nutrition affect the postnatal development of the immune function?
(Wiley, 2021)
Environmental conditions experienced by developing animals have an impact on the development and maturity of the immune system. Specifically, the diet experienced during early development influences the maintenance and ...
Mucosal immunization of BALB/c mice with DNA vaccines encoding the SEN1002 and SEN1395 open reading frames of Salmonella enterica serovar Enteritidis induces protective immunity
(Cambridge Univ. Press., 2016)
Salmonella Enteritidis is the main cause of foodborne salmonellosis worldwide. The limited
effectiveness of current interventions against this pathogen has been the main incentive to develop
new methods for the efficient ...
Evaluation of the immune response against immature viral particles of infectious pancreatic necrosis virus (IPNV): A new model to develop an attenuated vaccine
(2012)
Infectious pancreatic necrosis virus (IPNV) is a worldwide problem affecting both freshwater and seawater fish. Vaccines developed against IPNV are not as efficient in the field as they are in tests. Moreover, research in ...
