CHINA - A new study reveals that a ginger extract in the drinking water enhanced the response of chickens to oral vaccination against infectious bursal disease.
An unexpected benefit of inactivated poliovirus vaccine Watching the Watchers.org To assess the ability of IPV to boost mucosal immunity, 954 children in three age groups (6-11 months, 5 and 10 years) were immunized with IPV, bivalent OPV (bOPV,...
Endometrial NK22 cells are differently regulated in women with URPL and UI. Women with URPL have higher level of NK22 cells with a potential to induce NK2 shift than women with UI.
There's no doubt that antibiotics are a good thing. They save lives every day. As with many things, however, more is not always better. And this is certainly the case with antibiotics....
Stability in the composition of the hundred trillion bacterial cells in the human gastrointestinal tract is crucial to health, but scientists have been perplexed how our microbiota withstands an onslaught of toxins, dietary changes, and immune...

GPR15: a tale of two species Nature.com Indeed, a drug targeting the integrin α4β7 and its ligand MAdCAM has been approved by the US Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of patients with inflammatory bowel disease4.
The acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a form of severe hypoxemic respiratory failure that is characterized by inflammatory injury to the alveolar capillary barrier, with extravasation of protein-rich edema fluid into the airspace.
Veterinarians and researchers reported on a study related to antibody test development for Porcine Epidemic Diarrhea virus (PEDv) at the Iowa Swine Disease Conference held in Ames, Iowa last November.
New research in mice shows that the immune system in the skin develops distinct responses to the various microbes that naturally colonize the skin, referred to as commensals.
by John W. Steinke, Lixia Liu, Ronald B. Turner, Thomas J. Braciale, Larry Borish Background It is difficult to experimentally infect volunteers with RV strains to which the subject demonstrates serological immunity.
A diverse group of more than 500 scientists and clinicians from 37 countries advancing research and education related to the field of mucosal immunology.
In this issue of Human Reproduction, the paper by Gu et al. represents a landmark in reproductive immunology research. A new mechanism for evasion of maternal immune attack is described, one which explains an older theory but also itself represents part of a newer understanding of the maternal–fetal relationship. Although some of the methods may be relatively unfamiliar to many readers of this journal, the scientific endeavour is extraordinary and it is stimulating to consider how this is placed in the context of current theory and practice of reproductive immunology. In particular, this paper demonstrates, as an example, that there is a whole lot more to reproductive immunology than natural killer (NK) cells and immune therapy.
The field of reproductive immunology often arouses unusually emotive and diverse responses amongst clinicians, scientists and patients. At its core is the concept of the relationship between mother and conceptus which is critical for human reproduction. It is indisputable that the nature of the maternal–fetal interface determines the success or failure of pregnancy. However, our understanding of that interface, and our attempts to alter or improve it, are the cause of the controversy.
