Mediators of Gut Mucosal Immunity and Inflammation
The gastrointestinal tract is continuously exposed to foreign antigens such as those derived from food and microbiota of gut. Gut flora is an important entity of human body that plays crucial role in healthy immune system and various immuno-logical disorders. Exploration of interactions between gut flora and immune system is an important area of current investigations. Cytokines and chemokines ...
متن کاملSoluble Mediators Regulating Immunity in Early Life
Soluble factors in blood plasma have a substantial impact on both the innate and adaptive immune responses. The complement system, antibodies, and anti-microbial proteins and peptides can directly interact with potential pathogens, protecting against systemic infection. Levels of these innate effector proteins are generally lower in neonatal circulation at term delivery than in adults, and lowe...
متن کاملSerum cholesterol in neonates and their mothers. A pilot study.
Reports from the Aga Khan University indicate that 58% of 400 school children studied had undesirably high serum cholesterol levels. The present study was undertaken to determine whether the high cholesterol levels are present at birth and to determine the relationship between cord blood, maternal blood cholesterol and maternal diet. Cord blood from 58 neonates and fasting venous blood from 45 ...
متن کاملPooling signals from vertically and non-vertically orientation-tuned disparity mechanisms in human stereopsis
To understand the role that orientation-tuned disparity-sensitive mechanisms play in the perception of stereoscopic depth, we measured stereothresholds using two sets of random-dot stimuli that produce identical stimulation of disparity mechanisms tuned to vertical orientation but dissimilar stimulation of disparity mechanisms tuned to non-vertical orientations. Either 1 or 1.5D of astigmatic b...
متن کاملCorrelation between vitamin D status in mothers and their neonates in an Iranian population
Background and Objective: There has been a resurgence of nutritional rickets in children in many developing countries. Furthermore, Vitamin D deficiency is one of the major health problems and unexpectedly has a high prevalence in sunny countries (e.g. Middle East). In order to find out the association between vitamin D deficiencies in mothers and their neonates, we designed this study. Meth...
