Osteoprotegerin (OPG), a decoy receptor for receptor activator of NF-κB ligand (RANKL), antagonizes RANKL's osteoclastogenic function in bone. We previously demonstrated that systemic administration of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) to mice elevates OPG l

In spite of the importance of hyaluronan in host protection against infectious organisms in the alveolar spaces, its role in mycobacterial infection is unknown. In a previous study, we found that mycobacteria interact with hyaluronan on lung epitheli

We investigated whether pre- and postnatal low-dose exposure to diesel exhaust (DE) affects male reproductive function in mice. The DE concentration is less than that indicated as the environmental quality standard for suspended particulate matter (S

We have recently reported that disruption of nuclear erythroid 2 P45-related factor 2 (Nrf2) enhances susceptibility to airway inflammatory responses induced by low-dose diesel exhaust particles (DEP) in mice. C57BL/6 Nrf2 knockout (Nrf2(-/-)) mice a

CD4(+)CD25(+) regulatory T (Treg) cells cause immune suppression by inhibiting T cell effector functions and play pivotal roles not only in self-tolerance but also in immune response to parasitic microbial pathogens. Mycobacteria are major parasitic

There exists latent tuberculosis, in which small numbers of tubercle bacilli remain viable in the host without visible granulomatous lesions. As few data exist on the mechanisms of latent tuberculosis, it is important to examine latent tuberculosis i

Diesel exhaust (DE) is composed of particles and gaseous compounds. It has been reported that DE causes pulmonary and cardiovascular disease. We have previously reported that fetal exposure to DE had deleterious effects to the reproductive system of
