Selective inhibition of soluble tumor necrosis factor signaling reduces abdominal aortic aneurysm progression.

Background: Tumor necrosis factor (TNF) is pathologically elevated in human abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA). Non-selective TNF inhibition-based therapeutics are approved for human use but have been linked to several side effects. Compounds that target the proinflammatory soluble form of TNF (solTNF) but preserve the immunomodulatory capabilities of the transmembrane form of TNF (tmTNF) may prevent these side effects.

Factors influencing PCV13 specific antibody response in Danish children starting in day care.

This study examines different factors influencing the 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV13) specific antibody response in 8-13 months old Danish children starting in day care. We present secondary findings to the ProbiComp study, which included nose swabs, buccal swabs and blood samples from the children before entering day care (baseline) and again after 6 months. Pneumococci isolated from nose swabs were identified by latex agglutination kit and Quellung reaction.

Mannan Enhances IL-12 Production by Increasing Bacterial Uptake and Endosomal Degradation in and Stimulated Dendritic Cells.

The mannose receptor (MR) is a C-type lectin involved in endocytosis and with a poorly defined ability to modulate cellular activation. We investigated the effect of mannan treatment prior to stimulation of murine bone marrow-derived dendritic cells with the Gram-positive bacteria NCFM ) on the induction of Interleukin (IL)-12. Mannan enhanced the IL-12 production induced by in a dose dependent manner (up to 230% enhancement).

Surface Layer of MIMLh5 Promotes Endocytosis by Dendritic Cells.

Surface layers (S-layers) are proteinaceous arrays covering the cell walls of numerous bacteria. Their suggested properties, such as interactions with the host immune system, have been only poorly described. Here, we aimed to elucidate the role of the S-layer from the probiotic bacterial strain MIMLh5 in the stimulation of murine bone-marrow-derived dendritic cells (DCs).
