Cells of the immune system must search among billions of healthy cells in order to find and neutralize a small number of infected cells before pathogens replicate to sufficient numbers to cause disease or death. The immune system uses information signals to accomplish this search quickly. Here we use a computationally tractable and scalable differential equation model and a spatially explicit a...

Women are known to be particularly susceptible mental health issues, which can have a detrimental impact on various aspects of their lives, including physical, psychological, and social well-being. To enhance quality life, it is crucial identify protective factors such as religiosity psychological immune. Therefore, this research explored the relationship between religiosity, immune system, mar...

Primary Immune Deficiencies are a group of heterogeneous disorders that involve the innate or acquired immune system, or a combination of them. The underlying disorder may be related to decreased levels or function, or a complete lack of one or more components of the immune system in general. These diseases can occur with a prevalence of about 1 in 10000 live births. According to the fourth upd...

Background: The immune response of aged broiler breeder hens is influenced by many factors including obesity and aged lymphatic organs, but may improve by increasing the bioavailability of various nutrients such as zinc (Zn). Dietary supplementation of phytase can improve Zn availability in senescent broiler breeder hens. Aims:</st...

conclusions the diagnosis of thrombocytosis is not easy in all cases. the coexistence of anca and the immune complex in cgn may cause a severe inflammatory state, leading to extreme rt. the roles that the immune complex and anca play on the effect of the platelet count and function in cgn need further research. introduction we describe a female patient with extreme reactive thrombocytosis (rt) ...

abstract: measles remains one of the leading causes of childhood morbidity and mortality in developing countries and is still a major public health concern in developed countries. although live attenuated vaccine is used throughout the world, out breaks of disease still occur in many countries including iran. understanding measles outbreaks that occur after the initiation of measles elimination...

in the development of neuroinflammatory diseases, alterations of the blood brain barrier (bbb) represent key events. the integrity of the bbb is partially maintained by endothelia cells (ecs), since they actively limit the transmigration of immune cells. however, the factors that cause endothelial cells to develop an immune cell-permissive phenotype are poorly understood. in general, it has bee...

different medicinal plants have been used in animal and poultry nutrition in last decade. it seems that there are some potential to these medicinal plants to replace with common antibiotics. licorice root (glycyrrhiza glabra) is a medicinal plant that extensively was used in different studies. in the present study, the effect of dietary addition of licorice root on performance and blood energy ...
