  • Spike-specific T cell responses were more than twice as high in children and were also detected in many seronegative children, indicating pre-existing cross-reactive responses to seasonal coronaviruses. (nature.com)
  • We investigated the roles of suppressors of cytokine signaling (SOCSs) in regulating dendritic cell (DC) maturation and function. (elsevierpure.com)
  • We constructed stable knockdown (KD) cell lines for five epithelium -expressed miRNAs (miR-126, miR-141, miR-155, miR-210, and miR-1246) and assessed their response to infection with periodontal pathogens using microarray analysis , quantitative PCR (qPCR), enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay ( ELISA ), and Western blot assay.

  • Substrate recognition by either RNA or DNA sensors leads to signaling cascades that activate two major branches of the innate immune response, the type I/III IFN response and the inflammatory cytokine response (reviewed in ref. 11 ). (nature.com)
  • The cytokine profile following infection was compared between the two breeds by measuring IL-1α, IL-6, IL-10, IL-12 and TNF-α as well as nitric oxide in culture supernatants. (uaeu.ac.ae)

  • Both T helper 1 (Th1) and T helper 2 (Th2) responses are induced in response to the infection [ 3 ]. (hindawi.com)
  • The role of Th1 responses in the development of CIA was further emphasized by the observation that immunization of mice with type II collagen in incomplete Freund's adjuvant, which normally fails to induce arthritis, resulted in a predominantly Th2 cytokine profile. (ox.ac.uk)
