Published: February 2019

Flow cytometry is a routinely available laboratory method to study cells in suspension from a variety of human sources. Application of this technology as a clinical laboratory method has evolved from the identification of cell-surface proteins to characterizing intracellular proteins and providing multiple different techniques to assess specific features of adaptive and innate immune function. This expanded menu of flow cytometric testing approaches has increased the utility of this platform in characterizing and diagnosing disorders of immune function.

Avian coccidiosis, caused by the protozoan Eimeria, leads to significant economic losses for the poultry industry. In this study, bacteriophages that specifically bind to the calcium-binding protein (EtCab) of Eimeria tenella were selected using a biopanning process with a pIII phage display library. The recombinant EtCab protein served as the ligand in this selection process.

Background: Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a chronic condition influenced by diet, which affects gut microbiota and immune functions. The rising prevalence of IBD, linked to Western diets in developing countries, highlights the need for dietary interventions. This study aimed to assess the impact of white kidney beans (WKB) on gut inflammation and microbiota changes, focusing on their effects on enteric glial cells (EGCs) and immune activity in colitis.
