Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMORINGA TEA BLOCKS ACUTE LUNG INFLAMMATION INDUCED BY SWINE CONFINEMENT DUST THROUGH A MECHANISM INVOLVING TNF-α EXPRESSION, C-JUN N-TERMINAL KINASE ACTIVATION AND NEUTROPHIL REGULATIONMykea Mcknight, Jabria Allen, Jenora T. Waterman et al.Plant based products represent a promising alternative to conventional treatments for inflammation. Moringa oleifera Lam is a tree rich in proteins, vitamins, minerals and a variety of phytochemcals with health benefits. Among the reported health benefits are antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. The purpose of this study was to investigate whether tea brewed from dried Moringa leaves would abrogate inflammation in … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 8 May 2014 · 11,600 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEXPOSURE TO SWINE HOUSING DUST MODULATES MACROPHAGE MORPHOLOGY AND FUNCTIONRuth J. Pender, Radiah C. Minor, Steven L. Hurley et al.Swine Confinement Facility (SCF) dust consists of a complex mixture of feed grain particles, bacterial components, organic particulates and gases. When these particles are inhaled they deposit along the respiratory tract and mediate respiratory symptoms and disease in swine farmers and facility workers. Macrophages ingest and eliminate microbes and debris under chronic conditions; however, the role of macrophages in agricultural-related … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 25 Mar 2014 · 7,606 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPRODUCTION OF CROSS-REACTIVE AUTOANTIBODY BINDING TO BOVINE SERUM ALBUMIN IN THE D-GALACTOSE-INDUCED AGING MOUSE MODELJi-Hun Park, Tae-Saeng ChoiThe D-galactose (D-gal)-induced animal model, generated by repeated subcutaneous D-gal injections over approximately 6 weeks, has been frequently used for diabetes and aging research. However, little research has investigated the direct correlation between D-gal and autoantibody formation despite several reports on diabetes-and aging-related autoantibodies. The purpose of this study was to determine whether repetitive injection of D-gal can induce autoantibody … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 13 Jan 2014 · 7,039 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIN VIVO ANTIPLASMODIAL ACTIVITY AND ACUTE TOXICITY OF STANDARDIZED EXTRACT OF EURYCOMA LONGIFOLIA JACK. ROOT TRADITIONALLY USED TO TREAT MALARIAEti Nurwening Sholikhah, Mahardika Agus Wijayanti, MustofaA series of studies has been conducted to prove the Eurycoma longifolia Jack. root as an antimalarial. However, the in vivo antiplasmodial activity of E. longifolia Jack. root standardized extract and its lethal dose 50% (LD50) values is unknown. In vivo antiplasmodial activity was conducted on Plasmodium berghei infected Swiss mice as malaria model with 4-day suppression methods. Sixty mice … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 27 Dec 2013 · 7,732 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAcute Phase Protein Responses in Mice Infected with River Water Contaminated by Pasteurella multocida Type B: 2Mohammed Muqdad Khaleel, Faez Firdaus Jesse Abdullah, Lawan Adamu et al.Animals are predisposed to infections through varieties of ways which activate the innate immune systems at the initial phase of acute infections. Hemorrhagic Septicemia (HS) is a devastating septicemic disease of cattle and buffaloes caused by a particular serotypes of Pasteurella multocida and serotype B: 2 is the most importanta cause of the disease in Asia. Therefore, the present study … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 17 Sep 2013 · 7,756 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPolymerase Chain Reaction Detection of Pasteurella multocida Type B: 2 in Mice Infected with Contaminated River WaterFaez Firdaus Jesse Abdullah, Mohammed Muqdad Khaleel, Lawan Adamu et al.Hemorrhagic septicemia is an acute, deadly disease of cattle and buffaloes associated with colossal economic loss in the livestock industry in the Asian regions particularly Malaysia. Therefore, this study was conducted to investigate on the Polymerase chain reaction detection of Pasteurella multocida type B: 2 in mice inoculated through different routes with river water contaminated with infected mice carcasses. Sixty … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 17 Sep 2013 · 7,392 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractClinical and Reproductive Pathological Changes Associated with Brucella melitensis and its Lipopolysaccharides in Female Mice Via Oral InoculationFaez Firdaus Jesse Abdullah, Lawan Adamu, Nur Hazirah et al.Brucella melitensis (B. melitensis) are Gram-negative, aerobic, facultative intracellular bacteria that cause brucellosis that usually leads to abortion in sheep and goats. Three groups of equal number of 24 healthy female mice were used as animal models. They were orally inoculated with 0.4 mL of phosphate Buffered Saline (PBS-Control group), 0.4 mL of 109 cfu of B. melitensis and 0.4 … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 30 Aug 2013 · 8,572 accessesView PDFCite
