Group A Streptococcus Modulates Host Inflammation by Manipulating Polymorphonuclear Leukocyte Cell Death Responses.
Polymorphonuclear leukocyte (PMN) cell death strongly influences the resolution of inflammatory episodes, and may exacerbate adverse pathologies in response to infection. We investigated PMN cell death mechanisms following infection by virulent group A Streptococcus (GAS). Human PMNs were infected in vitro with a clinical, virulent GAS isolate and an avirulent derivative strain, and compared fo...
متن کاملManipulating the air-filled zebrafish swim bladder as a neutrophilic inflammation model for acute lung injury
Acute lung injury (ALI) and its more severe form, acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), are life-threatening diseases that are associated with high mortality rates due to treatment limitations. Neutrophils play key roles in the pathogenesis of ALI/ARDS by promoting the inflammation and injury of the alveolar microenvironment. To date, in vivo functional approaches have been limited by the...
متن کاملManipulating Brains
The desire to manipulate brain function is not new. In manipulating brain function the goal is to manipulate behaviour and we have been manipulating behaviour for the whole of our evolution as social animals. Primates, such as ourselves, living in social groups carry out mind manipulation with astonishing speed and accuracy throughout the day. We are all a little friendlier, some unknowingly, o...
متن کاملManipulating Perception
Maurice Merleau-Ponty observed that consciousness exists in the world and experience of things in the world exist in consciousness. We similarly believe that the physiological foundations of perception exist in the world and can be acted upon. As way of argument, we describe the experience of several devices that manipulate the precepts. Such devices act on consciousness but also the set of thi...
متن کاملManipulating Consciousness
Manipulation of the effects of consciousness by external influence on the human brain is considered in the context of the nonlinear dynamical modeling of interaction between automatic and conscious processes. In previous papers [1,2] an approach to nonlinear dynamical modeling of interaction between automatic (A) and conscious (C) processes in the brain was presented. The idea is to use quatern...
