Bacteriophages isolated from culture supernatants of Pseudomonas syringae pv. syringae and from sewage were identified. The DNA from each phage was isolated and digested with the restriction endonuclease EcoRI. Eight isolates were determined to be different, with two phage isolates from sewage having restriction patterns identical to two phages from culture supernatants. The sizes of the phage DNA ranged from 24 to49 kilobases for isolates from sewage and from 39 to 52.5 kilobases for the isolates from culture supernatants. Buoyant densities of phage particles in CsCl varied from 1.498 to 1.507 g/cm for isolates from sewage and from 1.506 to 1.516 g/cm for isolates from culture supernatants. Electron microscopy revealed four morphological types. Based on plaque-forming ability of culture supernatants, 31 out of 47 strains of P. syringae are probably lysogenic.

Understanding the dynamic pathophysiology of diseases in the lung, such as asthma and chronic asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and lung cancer, is crucial for the treatment, analysis, and outcome of these diseases. Unlike other traditional models, we suggest a protocol that is sustainable and reproducible and offers different analysis methods while maintaining in vivo lung architecture and immune dynamics. This protocol allows one to study the pathophysiological changes, including changes to the immune cells, cytokines, and mediators, in 30 precision-cut lung slices from a single murine lung.

Background: Several cases of pheochromocytoma presenting with hypertensive crises after anesthesia induction, possibly caused by rocuronium injection, have been reported. Rocuronium has two compositions: rocuronium bromide (RB) in sodium acetate hydrate/acetic acid buffer solution (acetic acid vehicle) and RB in glycine/hydrochloric acid buffer solution (hydrochloric acid vehicle). This study assessed the effect of rocuronium composition on the release of catecholamine from PC-12 rat adrenal pheochromocytoma cells.

Background: Fibrotic skin disease represents a major global healthcare burden, characterized by fibroblast hyperproliferation and excessive accumulation of extracellular matrix components. The immune cells are postulated to exert a pivotal role in the development of fibrotic skin disease. Single-cell RNA sequencing has been used to explore the composition and functionality of immune cells present in fibrotic skin diseases.

Background: Recent studies show that M1 macrophages accumulate predominantly in non-eosinophilic chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (neCRSwNP). However, the precise mechanisms regulating M1 macrophages and their impact on the epithelial barrier remain unclear.
Objective: We aim to investigate the expression and regulatory role of SLAMF8, a molecule exclusively expressed in myeloid cells, in M1 macrophage polarization and its potential contribution to neCRSwNP development.
A peptide mimic of SOCS1 modulates equine peripheral immune cells and ocular effector functions : implications for recurrent uveitis.

Introduction: Recurrent uveitis (RU), an autoimmune disease, is a leading cause of ocular detriment in humans and horses. Equine and human RU share many similarities including spontaneous disease and aberrant cytokine signaling. Reduced levels of SOCS1, a critical regulator of cytokine signaling, is associated with several autoimmune diseases.
