Nonlinear relations between house dust mite allergen levels and mite sensitization in farm and nonfarm children (Publications)
BACKGROUND: Low sensitization rates to common allergens have been observed in farm children, which might be due to high exposure to microbial agents. It is not known how microbial agents modify the as
Bicyclo[2.2.2]octyl esters of dialkylamino acids as antiprotozoals (Publications)
A couple of bicyclo[2.2.2]octyl esters of 2-dialkylaminoacetic acids were prepared. Their antiplasmodial and antitrypanosomal activities against Trypanosoma brucei rhodesiense (STIB 900) and the K(1)
Differential gene expression in LPS/IFNgamma activated microglia and macrophages: in vitro versus in vivo (Publications)
Two different macrophage populations contribute to CNS neuroinflammation: CNS-resident microglia and CNS-infiltrating peripheral macrophages. Markers distinguishing these two populations in tissue sec
Integrated cytokine and metabolic analysis of pathological responses to parasite exposure in rodents (Publications)
Parasitic infections cause a myriad of responses in their mammalian hosts, on immune as well as on metabolic level. A multiplex panel of cytokines and metabolites derived from four parasite-rodent mod
Immune deficiency in mouse models for inherited peripheral neuropathies leads to improved myelin maintenance (Publications)
The adhesive cell surface molecule P(0) is the most abundant glycoprotein in peripheral nerve myelin and fulfills pivotal functions during myelin formation and maintenance. Mutations in the correspond
