- Abstract:
- ... This study aimed to evaluate the influence of dietary pure linseed oil or sesame oil or a mixture on innate immune competence and eicosanoid metabolism in common carp (Cyprinus carpio). Carp of 100.4 ± 4.7 g were fed to satiation twice daily for 6 weeks with four diets prepared from three lipid sources (CLO; LO; SO; SLO). On day 42, plasma was sampled for immune parameter analyses, and kidney and ...

- Abstract:
- ... The Canine Distemper Virus (CDV) is a high fatal virus to the giant panda (Ailuropoda melanoleuca), where CDV vaccination is a key preventative measure in captive giant pandas. However, the immune response of giant pandas to CDV vaccination has been little studied. In this study, we investigated the blood transcriptome expression profiles of five giant panda cubs after three inoculations, 21 days ...

- Abstract:
- ... Myelocytomatosis viral oncogene (MYC), a transcription factor in the MYC family, plays vital roles in vertebrate innate immunity by regulating related immune gene expressions. In this study, we cloned and characterized an MYC gene from sea cucumber Apostichopus japonicus via RNA-seq and RACE approaches (designated as AjMYC). A 2074 bp fragment representing the full-length cDNA of AjMYC was obtaine ...

- Abstract:
- ... The complement system is a crucial component of the innate immune system that links innate and adaptive immunity. CL-11, a protein similar to Mannose-binding lectin (MBL), plays significant role in the innate immune system in mammals and fish, serving as an initiator of the lectin pathway of complement activation. In this study, a CL-11 homolog (TfCol-11) was identified in roughskin sculpin (Trach ...

The Fasciola hepatica/Pseudosuccinea columella interaction in Cuba involves a unique pattern of phenotypes; while most snails are susceptible, some field populations are naturally resistant to infection and parasites are encapsulated by snail hemocytes. Thus, we investigated the hemocytes of resistant (R) and susceptible (S) P. columella, in particular morphology, abundance, proliferation and in v ...

To date, both cell lines have been subcultured for more than 100 passages in 12 months. Notably, the LCM07 and LCM10 cells have distinct morphology and immune function. LCM07 cells showed strong contact inhibition in crowded ...

Non-self recognition of microbes is the front line of the innate immune system. Repertoires of pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) recognize the conserved pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) pres ...

- Abstract:
- ... The caenogastropod mollusk Littorina littorea is a promising experimental model for comparative studies on host/parasite immune conflict. Several different digenean parasites use L. littorea as the first intermediate host, overcoming snail immune reactions by a wide range of tactics that are radically different among different digenean species and at different developmental parasite stages. The im ...
