Host cell responses of Salmonella typhimurium infected human dendritic cells
(2006)
Live attenuated Salmonella are attractive vaccine candidates for mucosal application because they
induce both mucosal immune responses and systematic immune responses. After breaking the epithelium barrier,
Salmonella ...
A three-dimensional cellular model of the human respiratory tract to study the interaction with particles
(2004)
A novel triple co-culture model of the human airway barrier was
designed to simulate the cellular part of the air–blood barrier of
the respiratory tract represented by macrophages, epithelial cells,
and dendritic cells. ...
Genetic background of attenuated Salmonella typhimurium has profound influence on infection and cytokine patterns in human dendritic cells
(2001)
Salmonella typhimurium (ST) can cause infection in man, and attenuated strains are under consideration as live vaccine vectors. However, little is known about the interaction of ST with human dendritic cells (DC). Here, ...
Evaluation of phagocytic activity in human monocyte-derived dendritic cells
(2001)
Dendritic cells play a central role in initiation of primary T lymphocyte responses to foreign
antigens. Their potency in antigen presentation vis-à-vis reported low or lack of ability to
phagocytize particulate matter ...
Salmonella virulence factor SipB induces activation and release of IL-18 in human dendritic cells
(2002)
Interleukin-18 (IL-18) plays an important
role in innate and acquired immunity, in particular
against intracellular pathogens. However,
little is known about the microbial factors that
trigger IL-18 secretion by dendritic ...
Muscle “islands” in the tunica media of the goat thoracic aorta
(2009)
Muscle islands in tunica media of the aorta may influence its mechanical properties and disease distribution. This
study aimed to elucidate their, hitherto undescribed, characteristics in the goat thoracic aorta. Twenty ...
