Chronic HIV-1 Infection Frequently Fails to Protect against Superinfection
Reports of HIV-1 superinfection (re-infection) have demonstrated that the immune response generated against one strain of HIV-1 does not always protect against other strains. However, studies to determine the incidence of HIV-1 superinfection have yielded conflicting results. Furthermore, few studies have attempted to identify superinfection cases occurring more than a year after initial infect...
متن کاملIschemic Postconditioning Fails to Protect against Neonatal Cerebral Stroke
The lack of efficient neuroprotective strategies for neonatal stroke could be ascribed to pathogenic ischemic processes differentiating adults and neonates. We explored this hypothesis using a rat model of neonatal ischemia induced by permanent occlusion of the left distal middle cerebral artery combined with 50 min of occlusion of both common carotid arteries (CCA). Postconditioning was perfor...
متن کاملMR of acute experimental allergic encephalomyelitis.
Acute experimental allergic encephalomyelitis, an animal model of CNS inflammatory and demyelinating disease, was produced in guinea pigs and imaged with MR. Correlation of histopathology with MR revealed acute mononuclear perivascular inflammatory changes and edema corresponding to the high-intensity abnormalities observed on long repetition time (TR) images. Our results suggest that in acute ...
متن کاملAlpha-fetoprotein suppresses experimental allergic encephalomyelitis.
Experimental allergic encephalomyelitis (EAE), induced in guinea pigs by immunization with myelin basic protein (MBP) or whole CNS homogenate was successfully treated, as well as partially prevented, by daily administration of fetal alpha-fetoprotein (alpha FP). alpha FP which is produced in high quantities during pregnancy can inhibit both the cell-mediated immune response to MBP and the bindi...
متن کاملMetabolomics approaches in experimental allergic encephalomyelitis.
A myelin basic protein (MBP)-induced experimental allergic encephalomyelitis (EAE) involves paraplegia due to a reversible thoracolumbar spinal cord impairment. The aims of this study were thus to find significant metabolic biomarkers of inflammation and identify the site of inflammation in the central nervous system (CNS) during the acute signs in of the disease using metabolomics. All the EAE...
