Differential responses in placenta and fetal thymus at 12 days post infection elucidate mechanisms of viral level and fetal compromise following PRRSV2 infection
Download2020-01-01
Van Goor, Angelica, Pasternak, Alex, Walker, Kristen, Hong, Linjun, Malgarin, Carolina, MacPhee, Daniel J., Harding, John C. S., Lunney, Joan K.
Background:A pregnant gilt infected with porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) can transmit the virus to her fetuses across the maternal-fetal-interface resulting in varying disease outcomes. However,the mechanisms leading to variation in fetal outcome in response to PRRSV...

Dynamic Changes of Monocytes and Chemokine Pathway Signaling During Wound Healing Post-Burn Injury
DownloadSpring 2022
Background:There are over 11 million people hospitalized for burns annually according to the World Health Organization, resulting in painful skin scar contractures and restricted movements, as well as mental and physical stresses. Up to 70% of deep dermal injury result in hypertrophic scars,...

Effect of providing a formula supplemented with long chain polyunsaturated fatty acids on immunity in full term neonates
Download2008
Robinson, Lindsay E., Field, Catherine J., Clandinin, M. Thomas, van Aerde, John E.
To determine the effect of feeding formula containing long-chain PUFA (LCP) on immune function, healthy term infants were randomised at age 2 weeks to either a standard term formula (Formula; n 14) or the same formula supplemented with the LCP 20 : 4n-6 and 22 : 6n-3 (Formula+LCP; n 16)....

Environmental Exposures, Gut Microbiota, and Urinary Metabolomic Fingerprint of Crohn’s Disease Patients Who Have Undergone Ileo-colonic Resection
DownloadSpring 2014
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is an idiopathic disease that causes intestinal inflammation and lesions. Canada has one of the highest rates of IBD in the world. One of the major types of IBD is Crohn’s Disease (CD) and a large portion of CD patients will undergo surgical resection in the...

Environmental particulate matter induces murine intestinal inflammatory responses and alters the gut microbiome
Download2013-01-01
Thiesen, Aducio, Rioux, Kevin P., Tso, Robert, Kish, Lisa, Barkema, Herman W., Madsen, Karen L., Vincent, Renaud, Wine, Eytan, Kaplan, Gilaad G., Hotte, Naomi, Gänzle, Michael G.
Background Particulate matter (PM) is a key pollutant in ambient air that has been associated with negative health conditions in urban environments. The aim of this study was to examine the effects of orally administered PM on the gut microbiome and immune function under normal and inflammatory...

Fall 2009
Inflammatory Bowel Diseases (IBD) result from the nexus of a genetic predisposition, dysregulated immunologic insult against commensal microflora, and an environmental trigger. The intestinal epithelium is a single cell layer that separates a highly active mucosal immune system from a large...

Spring 2018
Background- Crohn's disease (CD) is a type of inflammatory bowel disease that can cause inflammation throughout the alimentary tract. Many individuals diagnosed with CD ultimately require intestinal resection. Unfortunately, disease often recurs following surgery. The pathophysiology of the...

Feeding long chain (n-3) polyunsaturated fatty acids to obese leptin receptor deficient JCR:LA-cp rats modifies immune function and lipid raft fatty acid composition
Download2009
Ruth, Megan R., Field, Catherine J., Proctor, Spencer D.
Dietary EPA and DHA modulate immunity and thereby may improve the aberrant immune function in obese states. To determine the effects of feeding fish oil (FO) containing EPA and DHA on splenocyte phospholipid (PL) and lipid-raft fatty acid composition, phenotypes and cytokine production,...

Implementing and Evaluating Virtual Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction for Adults with Inflammatory Bowel Disease
DownloadFall 2023
Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD), which include Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis, are chronic diseases of the gastrointestinal tract. Individuals living with IBD suffer from chronic symptoms of fatigue and malnutrition and unpredictable flares of acute symptoms including abdominal pain,...
