Germination of Invasive Plant Seeds after Digestion by Horses in California
(Natural Areas Journal, 2008-10)
Using a unique sterile design intended to eliminate outside seed contamination of horse
feces, we investigated whether weed seeds germinate after digestion by horses. Feces were collected
from selected National Parks and ...
CD14+ cells are required for IL-12 response in bovine blood mononuclear cells activated with Toll-like receptor (TLR) 7 and TLR8 ligands
(Elsevier, 2008)
Single-stranded viral RNA (ssRNA) was recently identified as the natural ligand for TLR7
and TLR8. ssRNA sequences from viruses, as well as their synthetic analogues stimulate
innate immune responses in immune cells from ...
The neoplastically transformed (CD30hi) Marek’s disease lymphoma cell phenotype most closely resembles T-regulatory cells
(Springer-Verlag, 2008-02-07)
Introduction Marek’s disease (MD), a herpesvirus-induced
lymphoma of chickens is a unique natural model of CD30-
overexpressing (CD30hi) lymphoma. We have previously
proposed that the CD30hi neoplastically transformed ...
Potential of treating tuberculosis with a polymeric nano-drug delivery system
(Elsevier, 2008-12-18)
An effective therapeutic regimen is available for the treatment of tuberculosis (TB), however in developing countries; patient non-compliance due to high dose frequency and the lengthy duration of treatment, presents a ...
Genotype-Dependent Tumor Regression in Marek’s Disease Mediated at the Level of Tumor Immunity
(Springer, 2008-03-18)
Marek’s disease (MD) of chickens is a unique
natural model of Hodgkin’s and Non Hodgkin’s lymphomas
in which the neoplastically-transformed cells over-express
CD30 (CD30hi) antigen. All chicken genotypes can be
infected ...
