Polymyxin B as inhibitor of LPS contamination of Schistosoma mansoni recombinant proteins in human cytokine analysis
Luciana Santos Cardoso,Maria Ilma Araujo,Maria Ilma Araujo,Alfredo M. Goes,Lucila G. G. Pacifico,Ricardo Riccio Oliveira,Sergio C. Oliveira +6 more
TL;DR: Polymyxin B was able to neutralize the effect of endotoxin, as contaminant in S. mansoni recombinant antigens produced in E. coli, in inducing TNF-α and IL-10 production.

TL;DR: A deeply sequenced dataset of 910 individuals, all of African descent, is used to construct a set of DNA sequences that is present in these individuals but missing from the reference human genome, demonstrating that the African pan-genome contains ~10% more DNA than the current human reference genome.

TL;DR: Genetic variation from deeply sequenced genomes of 642 individuals from North and South American, Caribbean and West African populations is presented, substantially increasing the lexicon of human genomic variation and suggesting much variation remains to be discovered in African-admixed populations in the Americas.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus-specific immune responses in patients with asthma are evaluated by measuring levels of T helper 2 (Th2) cytokines in peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC) cultures.
Journal ArticleDOI
Schistosoma mansoni antigens modulate the allergic response in a murine model of ovalbumin-induced airway inflammation.

TL;DR: It is concluded that the S. mansoni antigens used in this study are able to down‐modulate allergic inflammatory mediators in a murine model of airway inflammation and that the CD4+FoxP3+ T cells, even in the absence of IL‐10 expression, might play an important role in this process.
