Fluoroscopy with retrograde pyelogram is commonly used to obtain access for percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PNL). Our practice uses room air identification of calyceal anatomy. Herein we explore whether an was associated a decrease in radiation exposure compared standard pyelogram.We retrospectively reviewed all PNL procedures performed at our institution over the past 2 years. Of 260 during study period, 96 had information on dosage required analysis. The effective dose (ED) calculated using...
Mild or transient dietary restriction (DR) improves many aspects of health and aging. Emerging evidence from us others has demonstrated that DR also optimizes the development quality immune responses. However, factors mechanisms involved remain to be elucidated. Here, we propose DR-induced optimization immunological memory requires a complex cascade events involving T cells, intestinal microbiota, myeloid cells. Our findings suggest enhances ability cells recruit activate in context...
Breastfeeding is an obligatory requirement of mammalian survival. This process associated with the adaptation maternal physiology including transformation mammary gland into a milk-secreting organ. How immunity contributes to remodeling and function remains largely unknown. Here, we show that adaptive plays critical role in shaping lactogenesis. Specifically, physiological during pregnancy thymic involution paradoxical enrichment intraepithelial lymphocyte (IEL) precursors no longer migrate...
Abstract Barrier tissues such as the skin and gut form first line of defense against pathogens establish an immune dialogue with resident microbiota. To that end, they harbor populations geared towards barrier function, tolerance, repair. Of particular interest are large numbers T cells. Some specific commensal microbes or recognize previously encountered pathogens. However, origin, antigen specificity, function most tissue-resident cells remains elusive. We have identified a dominant CD4...
Abstract Breast milk has been shown to play a key role in the transfer of immunity from mother offspring. Antibodies and lymphoid cells can be passed through breast impact offspring immunity. However, these lactation control remains unclear. We observed that present are distinct those found blood. Compared blood, T enriched T-bet +unconventional population. Imaging analysis revealed +cells gradually accumulate mammary gland during pregnancy specifically localized around inside epithelium....
Abstract Breastfeeding has long been associated with health benefits for the infant. Breast milk is composed of essential nutrients and bioactive molecules shaping growth, immune development offspring. An optimal mammary gland (MG) during pregnancy critical to maintaining beneficial effects lactation. Nevertheless, how lactation process regulated by system remains largely unexplored. Our data reveal that commitment epithelial cells into milk-secreting accumulation T-bet +lymphoid cells,...
