Development of strain-level shotgun metagenomics approaches to detect and characterize microbiological contaminants in the context of food safety
laboratories in the future. The method was first tested on minced beef spiked with shiga toxin-producing E.coli (STEC) at very low level (5 CFU /25g). After enrichment for 16 or 24 hours in buffered peptone ...
Flanders and Brussels join forces to tackle animal testing
methods from various research fields and research fields and institutions. This includes using human material in cell and tissue cultures (in vitro), or computer models (in silico). “These new, innovative ...
Progressive Control of Streptococcus agalactiae-Induced Innate Inflammatory Response Is Associated with Time Course Expression of MicroRNA-223 by Neutrophils.
inflammatory markers, including innate cell infiltrates. We found that miR-223 expression is rapidly induced at very early time points (3 to 6 h postinfection [p.i.]) mainly by lung-infiltrating neutrophils. ...
Is aggregated synthetic amorphous silica toxicologically relevant?
size distributions. Their effect on cell metabolic activity, cell viability, epithelial barrier integrity, total glutathione content and, IL-8 and IL-6 secretion were investigated after 24 h exposure in ...
Meta-analysis of the accuracy of p16 or p16/Ki-67 immunocytochemistry versus HPV testing for the detection of CIN2+/CIN3+ in triage of women with minor abnormal cytology.
testing has very low specificity. Overexpression of p16, with or without Ki-67, indicates neoplastic transformation of human papillomavirus-infected cervical cells and may more accurately predict underlying ...
Epidemiology, Impact and Control of Rabies in Nepal: A Systematic Review
35,000 humans are reported to receive rabies post-exposure prophylaxis. However, these estimates are very likely to be serious underestimations of the true rabies burden. Significant progress has been made ...
Inter-laboratory study of human in vitro toxicogenomics-based tests as alternative methods for evaluating chemical carcinogenicity: a bioinformatics perspective.
Issue 9, p.2215-29 (2016) Keywords: Carcinogens Cell Line, Tumor Computational Biology Dose-Response Relationship, Drug Gene Expression Profiling Gene Expression Regulation Genome-Wide Association Study ...
Deletion of Murid Herpesvirus 4 ORF63 Affects the Trafficking of Incoming Capsids toward the Nucleus.
cell, suggesting that ORF63 plays a role in capsid movement. In the future, ORF63 could therefore be considered a target to block gammaherpesvirus infection at a very early stage of the infection. ...
