Sepsis resulting from gram-negative bacterial infections is characterized by an excessive inflammatory immune response initiated by exposure of the host innate immune system to either bacteria or bacterial products, primarily lipopolysaccharide (LPS)

TLRs recognize and respond to conserved motifs termed pathogen-associated molecular patterns. TLRs are characterized by an extracellular leucine-rich repeat motif and an intracellular Toll/IL-1R domain. Triggering of TLRs by pathogen-associated molec

Bacterial DNA containing unmethylated CpG motifs is a pathogen-associated molecular pattern (PAMP) that interacts with host immune cells via a toll-like receptor (TLR) to induce immune responses. DNA binding and internalization into cells is independ

This study was designed to assess the effect of exposure to long-term extremely low-frequency electric and magnetic fields (ELF–EMF) from a 500 kV transmission line on IL-1 and IL-2 activity in sheep. The primary hypothesis was that the reduction i

DNA binding to cell-surfaces has been documented in several studies. The interaction of DNA with cells has been shown to have therapeutic potential as a non-viral form of gene delivery and DNA vaccination. Recently, bacterial DNA binding and internal

Corticosteroid therapy is used to reverse autoimmune sensorineural hearing loss, although little is known of the mechanism by which this occurs. This has been due to the lack of a suitable animal model with spontaneous hearing loss that is steroid re

DNA binds to cell-surface proteins on human and murine leukocytes and induces secretion of the cytokine interleukin 6 (IL-6). Cell-surface DNA binding molecules have been shown to serve as target antigens for the production of autoantibodies in patie

SUMMARYAnti-idiotypic anti-DNA antibodies (anti-anti-DNA) have previously been described in both patients with systemic lupus erythematosus and healthy individuals. Jerne's hypothesis predicts that such antibodies would bear a paratope reactive with

Objectives/Hypothesis: Chronic otitis media is a significant clinical problem. Understanding the mechanisms of chronic otitis media is critical for its control. However, little is known of these processes as a result of lack of animal models of spont

Various animal models have been employed for otitis media research. The mouse has been studied less, in spite of its many advantages. To better understand the suitability of the mouse for studies of otitis media, an evaluation was made of its middle
