Literature ReviewOpen accessEvery word in the titleOn the Natural Intelligence and Consciousness of the Immune System and its Relationship with the BrainMarco Ruggiero, Akira HiratsukaIn this article, we consider the relationship between the brain and the immune system in the context of the Orchestrated Objective Reduction (Orch OR) theory of consciousness. Orch OR is a theory that postulates that consciousness arises from quantum computations occurring inside microtubules. The immune system is capable of acquiring, learning, and remembering information, thus showing all the attributes of … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 19, Issue 1 · 17 Apr 2024 · 11,431 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleExploring the Role of Immune Complexes in Essential HypertensionIvan MilosevicEssential hypertension is a rise of arterial blood pressure whose etiology is unknown. Immune complexes are complexes created by the binding of an antibody to the antigen. They are also called circulating immune complexes because of its precipitation in peripheral blood vessels, commonly on the places of their bifurcation and the places of higher blood pressure (glomerules of kidney or … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 18, Issue 1 · 2 Nov 2022 · 9,974 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleImmune Metabolism in Functional Aspects of the BrainElisa Gonzalez Cuevas, Nitya G. ChakrabortyThe brain interacts with the immune system in a highly regulated and restricted manner. Immune signals initiate pro- and anti-inflammatory activity in most body tissues in response to disease states and injury. An accumulation of inflammatory insults can disrupt immune metabolic homeostasis and give rise to pathology in sensitive areas. Here, we provide an overview of interactions between immune metabolism … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 18 Dec 2019 · 7,219 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleHousing Pregnant Sows in Turnaround Stalls During Gestation Impacts Behavior, Immune and Well-BeingAshley DeDecker, Michael Mandru, Janeen L. Salak-JohnsonThis study aimed to determine the effects of housing gestating multiparous sows in alternative turn-around stalls on selective measures of well-being. Sows were randomly assigned to either a Turn-Around Stall (TAS) or standard Straight Stall (STS) from gestational day 6 until 110. Behavior was registered on days 6, 30, 45, 65, 90 and 110 of gestation and immune and cortisol … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 4 · 14 Nov 2018 · 7,965 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThe Triple Immune Argument; Surveillance/Evasion/ Senescence and the Increased Incidence of Acute Myeloid Leukemia Observed with AgeManar M. IsmailAML originates from genetic insults of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs/HSCs) that was identified earlier as leukemia stem cells (LSCs). In quiescent state, trafficking immune cells are crucial for eradication of aberrant clones and obtaining balance between proliferation and apoptosis to maintain HSCs pool. Regulatory T-cells shield the HSCs from the inflammatory reactions by suppressing T- and B- cells. … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 13, Issue 4 · 22 Dec 2017 · 7,806 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleDescription of a Novel Probiotic Concept: Implications for the Modulation of the Immune SystemStefania Pacini, Marco RuggieroIt is estimated that the first processed food products consumed by humans pertained to the category of fermented foods and beverages such as beer, wine, sauerkraut, fermented sausage as well as fermented milk derivatives such as yogurt and kefir. Thus, fermented foods are endowed with undisputed healthy properties due to the presence of probiotic microbes that not only help supporting … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 13, Issue 2 · 28 Jan 2017 · 9,237 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleA Novel Glucan-Sulforaphane Combination Stimulates Immune Response to Influenza in Mouse ModelVetvicka Vaclav, Vetvickova JanaInfluenza remains a serious health problem and causes approximately 500,000 deaths world-wide. With current available treatments offering neither dependable protection nor a rapid cure, many have focused their attention to alternative treatments. The aim of this study was to evaluate the possible effect of a novel maitake glucan-sulforaphane combination on immune response against influenza challenge in mice. We evaluated the … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 12, Issue 2 · 3 Aug 2016 · 7,933 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleCpG Oligodeoxynucleotides Debate the Damaging Action of Cisplatin on Immune Cell DNA: A PCR Array Application on Repair Genes ExpressionNaglaa Fathy Alhusseini, Amal Abo El-Fadl, Shabaan Hemada et al.Synthetic Oligodeoxynucleotides (ODN) expressing CpG motifs (CpG-ODN) mimic the immunostimulatory activity of bacterial DNA and are commonly used to activate Toll Like Receptor 9 (TLR9) for therapeutic applications. CpG-ODN can counteract the activity of DNA-damaging chemotherapy and radiation therapy on immune cell and enhance immunity in preclinical mouse models. We hypothesized that these actions of CpG-ODN on immune cells are … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 12, Issue 3 · 27 Jul 2016 · 7,625 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleProtective Effect of N-Acetylcystiene Against Titanium Dioxide Nanoparticles Modulated Immune Responses in Male Albino RatsMohamed Mohamed Soliman, Hossam Fouad Attia, Mohamed Mahmoud Hussein et al.The protective effects of N-Acetylcysteine (NAC) against orally administered titanium dioxide nanoparticles (TiO2) for 3 months on male albino rats were examined. Adult male albino rats were given saline as a control group, TiO2 (1200 mg kg-1 BW), NAC (100 mg kg-1 BW) and co-treatment of NAC and TiO2 as a protective group for 3 months. Blood was assayed for … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 30 Nov 2013 · 7,273 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEvaluation of the Immune Response to T. verrucosum VaccinesRasha Nabil Zahran, Eman Attia AbdeenDermatophytosis is considered as one of the most important fungal skin disease affecting both humans and animals otherwise its importance as zoonotic disease. Treatment of ringworm in cattle is expensive and time consuming especially on herd level. Vaccination can be a giant step forward to prevent the occurrence of mycozoonosis between the affected animals with ringworm and susceptible man.
