Diflunisal attenuates acute inflammatory responses through inhibition of NF-κB signaling pathway in Staphylococcus aureus-induced mastitis of lactating mouse model.

The cure rate of Staphylococcus aureus mastitis by conventional antibiotic therapy is very poor. Diflunisal (DIF), a difluorophenol derivative of salicylic acid, is reported to have strong anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory effects against S. aureus infection.

Characterization of warped product manifolds through the -curvature tensor with applications to relativity.

We first investigate how the flatness and the symmetry of the -tensor impact both the base manifold and the fiber manifold of a warped product manifold. In both cases, we determine the form of the -tensor on both the fiber and the base manifolds. Additionally, we establish that the fiber manifold is of constant curvature, while the base manifold is Einstein.
