In malaria, rosetting is described as a phenomenon where an infected erythrocyte (IRBC) attached to uninfected erythrocytes (URBC). some studies, has been associated with malaria pathogenesis. Here, we have identified new type of rosetting. Using step-by-step approach, IGFBP7, protein secreted by monocytes in response parasite stimulation, rosette-stimulator for Plasmodium falciparum- and P. vivax-IRBC. IGFBP7-mediated rosette-stimulation was rapid yet reversible. Unlike I that involves...

Background Photorhabdus asymbiotica is a species of the insect pathogenic genus that has been isolated as an etiological agent in human infections. Since then, multiple isolates have identified worldwide; however, actual clinical infections so far only North America, Australia, and Nepal. Previous research on had shown strains differed their behaviour when infecting cultured cells. Methods In this study, we investigate differences between activities P. from different geographic locations....

AOD01 is a novel, fully human immunoglobulin (Ig) G1 neutralizing monoclonal antibody that was developed as therapeutic against severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus type 2 (SARS-CoV-2). This first-in-human study assessed safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), and pharmacodynamics of in healthy volunteers. Intravenous doses were evaluated escalating cohorts [four single-dose (2, 5, 10, 20 mg/kg) one two-dose cohort (two mg/kg, 24 h apart)]. Twenty-three subjects randomized to...

<b>Introduction:</b> Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) and rhinovirus (RV) infection associates with asthma/COPD exacerbation, which responds inadequately to glucocorticoids (GC). Viral induces transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β). TGF-β is a mediator of GC insensitivity in epithelial cell types (Salem, S. et al. Br J Pharmacol2012;166:2036-2048; Keenan, C.R. Respir Res 2014; 15:55) <b>Aim:</b> To explore the contribution RSV-induced insensitivity. <b>Methods:</b> Bronchial line BEAS-2B...
