The food-borne pathogene Listeria monocytogenes has been considered a significant threat to human health worldwide. It mainly infects individuals suffering insuffecint immunit...
NuMA is required for proper spindle assembly and chromosome alignment in prometaphase
Journal Article
Haren, L., Gnadt, N., Wright, M., & Merdes, A. (2009)
NuMA is required for proper spindle assembly and chromosome alignment in prometaphase. BMC Research Notes, 2, 1-6. https://doi.org/10.1186/1756-0500-2-64
NuMA is a protein that has been previously shown to play a role in focusing microtubules at the mitotic spindle poles. However, most previous work relies on experimental metho...
High-intensity exercise elicits the mobilization of senescent T lymphocytes into the peripheral blood compartment in human subjects.
Journal Article
Simpson, R. J., Florida-James, G., Cosgrove, C., Whyte, G. P., Macrae, S., Pircher, H., & Guy, K. (2007)
High-intensity exercise elicits the mobilization of senescent T lymphocytes into the peripheral blood compartment in human subjects. Journal of Applied Physiology, 103, 396-401. https://doi.org/10.1152/japplphysiol.00007.2007
Clonal expansion of T lymphocytes in response to antigenic stimulation is a fundamental process of adaptive immunity. As a consequence of clonal expansion, some T lymphocytes ...
Removal of regulatory T cell activity reverses hyporesponsiveness and leads to filarial parasite clearance in vivo.
Journal Article
Taylor, M. D., LeGoff, L., Harris, A., Malone, E. M., Allen, J. E., & Maizels, R. M. (2005)
Removal of regulatory T cell activity reverses hyporesponsiveness and leads to filarial parasite clearance in vivo. Journal of Immunology, 174, 4924-4933
Human filarial parasites cause chronic infection associated with long-term down-regulation of the host’s immune response. We show here that CD4+ T cell regulation is the main ...

Ultrafine (Uf) particles are a component of particulate air pollution suggested to be responsible for the health effects associated with elevations of this pollutant. We have ...
Aluminium lactate treatment of DQ12 quartz inhibits its ability to cause inflammation, chemokine expression and NF-kB activation.
Journal Article
Duffin, R., Gilmour, P. S., Schins, R. P. F., Clouter, A., Guy, K., Brown, D. M., …Stone, V. (2001)
Aluminium lactate treatment of DQ12 quartz inhibits its ability to cause inflammation, chemokine expression and NF-kB activation. Toxicology and Applied Pharmacology. 176, 10-17. doi:10.1006/taap.2001.9268. ISSN 0041-008X
In 1997, an IARC Working Group classified quartz (crystalline silica) as a Group 1 lung carcinogen, but only in some industries, i.e., the quartz hazard is a variable entity. ...
