... from the field of nutritional immunology, and we then investigate how factors such as intracellular and extracellular symbionts, sociality and transgenerational effects may interact with the connection between nutrition and immunity. We show that the interactions between nutrition and resistance can...

...Hue Dinh; Ida Lundbäck; Sheemal Kumar; Anh The Than; Juliano Morimoto; Fleur Ponton ABSTRACT Nutrition is a central factor influencing immunity and resistance to infection, but the extent to which nutrition during development affects adult responses to infections is poorly understood. Our study...

.... Summary: New insights into the mechanisms underlying the high survival of oysters infected with OsHV-1 at 29°C, inducing host physiological processes that are unfavorable to the viral infection. Anti-viral molecular pathway Host–pathogen interaction Marine disease OsHV-1 Resistance Temperature...

... that this tachycardia is neither necessary nor sufficient to drive a change in cardiac output (i.e. systemic blood flow, Q̇ sys ) under most circumstances. Instead, Q̇ sys is determined by the interplay between vascular conductance (resistance) and capacitance (which is mainly determined by the venous circulation...

... developed against other diseases, the evaluation of drug resistance reversers, and the consideration of new chemotherapeutic targets. The last category benefits from recent advances in malaria research technologies and genomics and is most likely to identify new classes of drugs. A number of new...

The results of these lesion experiments, coupled with details of intervertebral joint anatomy, suggest that extension resistance is ultimately due to articular...
