Potential use of serum-derived bovine immunoglobulin/protein isolate for the management of COVID-19.

TL;DR: Serum derived bovine immunoglobulin/protein isolate (SBI) as discussed by the authors was used to prevent the cytokine storm in colorectal cancer patients by binding and neutralizing inflammatory antigens, decreasing intestinal permeability, interfering with ACE2 binding by viral proteins, and improving the fecal microbiome.
Journal ArticleDOI

Phenotypic PIA-Dependent Biofilm Production by Clinical Non-Typeable Staphylococcus aureus Is Not Associated with the Intensity of Inflammation in Mammary Gland: A Pilot Study Using Mouse Mastitis Model.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the impact of biofilm formation by clinical Staphylococcus aureus on cytokine production and mammary tissue damage by using a mouse mastitis model.
Journal ArticleDOI

Impact of aging on immunity in the context of COVID-19, HIV, and tuberculosis

TL;DR: In this paper , a review of the recent understanding of age-related changes affecting key components of immunity is presented, focusing on immunosenescence and inflammaging that are impacted by common infectious diseases that are characterized by a high mortality, and includes COVID-19, HIV and tuberculosis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Alterations in levels of cytokine following treatment to predict outcome of sepsis: A meta-analysis.

TL;DR: In this article , the authors investigated the relationship between changes in cytokine levels after treatment compared with those on hospital admission, and their relationship with the prognosis of patients with sepsis.

TH1 and TH2 cells: different patterns of lymphokine secretion lead to different functional properties.

TL;DR: Two types of cloned helper T cells are described, defined primarily by differences in the pattern of lymphokines ynthesized, and the different functions of the two types of cells and their lymphokine synthesis are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

From inflammation to sickness and depression: when the immune system subjugates the brain

TL;DR: In response to a peripheral infection, innate immune cells produce pro-inflammatory cytokines that act on the brain to cause sickness behaviour, which can lead to an exacerbation of sickness and the development of symptoms of depression in vulnerable individuals.
Journal ArticleDOI

IL-17 and Th17 Cells.

TL;DR: The investigation of the differentiation, effector function, and regulation of Th17 cells has opened up a new framework for understanding T cell differentiation and now appreciate the importance of Th 17 cells in clearing pathogens during host defense reactions and in inducing tissue inflammation in autoimmune disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Gout-associated uric acid crystals activate the NALP3 inflammasome

TL;DR: It is shown that MSU and CPPD engage the caspase-1-activating NALP3 (also called cryopyrin) inflammasome, resulting in the production of active interleukin (IL)-1β and IL-18 in mice deficient in the IL-1β receptor.
