In disease settings, vitamin D may be important for maintaining optimal lung epithelial integrity and suppressing inflammation, but less is known of its effects prior to disease onset.
Diabetes mellitus is one of the most common chronic metabolic disorders worldwide, and its incidence in Asian countries is alarmingly high.
This study aimed to identify a CIS peripheral blood signature that may provide clues for potential immunomodulatory approaches early in disease
We propose that this system provides a model for the differentiation and adaptation of monocytes entering the intestinal lamina propria.
We identified a double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) bacteriophage appearing to belong to Herelleviridae, genus Kayvirus. The bacteriophage, Biyabeda-mokiny 1, was isolated from breast milk using a clinical isolate of Staphylococcus aureus.
Neutrophils are the most abundant immune cell in circulation. However, due to a number of technical challenges for researchers, including the neutrophil's short lifespan and difficulties with preservation, they are often discarded during blood processing and thus ignored in cohort studies. As such, the contribution of neutrophils to disease and their involvement in disease mechanisms is less explored compared with other immune cell types.
People at risk of developing multiple sclerosis (MS) have been offered a beacon of hope thanks to research into UV exposure.
Researchers at The Kids Research Institute Australia have found children with vitamin D deficiency are more likely to develop asthma.
The objective was to determine the association between maternal serum 25(OH)-vitamin D concentrations and behavioural, emotional and language outcomes...
In this study, using a mouse model, we determined whether vitamin D deficiency in utero and during early life modulated the severity of asthma.
