Antigen Uptake After Intradermal Microinjection Depends on Antigen Nature and Formulation, but Not on Injection Depth

Stroop dilution depends on the nature of the color carrier but not on its location.

Stroop dilution is the reduction of the Stroop effect in the presence of a neutral word. It has been attributed to competition for attention between the color word and neutral word, to competition between all stimuli in the visual field, and to perceptual interference. Five experiments tested these accounts. The critical manipulation was whether the color to be named was carried by the color wo...

Antigen-Specific Th1 But Not Th2 Cells

The mannose receptor mediates uptake of soluble but not of cell-associated antigen for cross-presentation.

The mannose receptor (MR) has been implicated in the recognition and clearance of microorganisms and serum glycoproteins. Its endocytic function has been studied extensively using macrophages, although it is expressed by a variety of cell types, including dendritic cells (DC). In this study, we investigated its role in Ag presentation by DC using MR-/- mice. Uptake of the model Ag, soluble OVA,...

on semihypergroups and hypergroups

in this thesis, first the notion of weak mutual associativity (w.m.a.) and the necessary and sufficient condition for a $(l,gamma)$-associated hypersemigroup $(h, ast)$ derived from some family of $lesssim$-preordered semigroups to be a hypergroup, are given. second, by proving the fact that the concrete categories, semihypergroups and hypergroups have not free objects we will introduce t...
