MicroRNA Expression and Virulence in Pandemic Influenza Virus-Infected Mice

TL;DR: This is the first demonstration that cellular gene expression patterns in influenza virus-infected mice may be attributed in part to microRNA regulation and that such regulation may be a contributing factor to the extreme virulence of the r1918.
Journal ArticleDOI

In Active Relapsing-Remitting Multiple Sclerosis, Effector T Cell Resistance to Adaptive T regs Involves IL-6-Mediated Signaling

TL;DR: It is reported that some Teffs are resistant to Tregs in patients with active relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS) and that this resistance is dependent on interleukin-6 (IL-6) signaling.
Journal ArticleDOI

Lethal Dissemination of H5N1 Influenza Virus Is Associated with Dysregulation of Inflammation and Lipoxin Signaling in a Mouse Model of Infection

TL;DR: It is suggested that Vietnam/1203 is more pathogenic in mice as a consequence of several factors, including the early and sustained induction of the inflammatory response, the additive or synergistic effects of upregulated components of the immune response, and inhibition of lipoxin-mediated anti-inflammatory responses, which correlated with the ability of VN/ 1203 to disseminate to extrapulmonary organs.
