Small intestine early innate immunity response during intestinal colonization by Escherichia coli depends on its extra-intestinal virulence status
Download2016
Denamur, Erick, Tourret, Jérôme, Dion, Sara, Willing, Benjamin P., Wachtel, Sarah, Finlay, B. Brett, Dufour, Nicolas, Croxen, Matthew A.
Uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) strains live as commensals in the digestive tract of the host, but they can also initiate urinary tract infections. The aim of this work was to determine how a host detects the presence of a new UPEC strain in the digestive tract. Mice were orally challenged...

T cell-mediated inflammation is stereotyped: mouse delayed-type hypersensitivity reaction and mouse T cell-mediated rejection of renal allografts share common molecular mechanismsT cell-mediated inflammation is stereotyped
DownloadFall 2011
Genome-wide gene expression analysis of diseases has revealed large-scale changes in the expression of thousands of genes (transcripts) representing biological processes. The processes that occur during T cell-mediated rejection (TCMR) of renal allografts in mice and humans have been previously...

The analysis of cytokine regulation of macrophage antimicrobial responses of the goldfish (Carassius auratus L.)
DownloadFall 2011
Inflammation is a highly regulated immune response to tissue damage, infiltrating pathogens or both. Cells of the myeloid lineage such as macrophages are indispensable for the initiation, progression and resolution of inflammation. Macrophages possess an armamentarium of antimicrobial responses...

The current recommended vitamin D intake guideline for diet and supplements during pregnancy is not adequate to achieve vitamin D sufficiency for most pregnant women
Download2016
Maggiore, Jack A., Eliasziw, Misha, Rabi, Doreen, O'Beirne, Maeve, Field, Catherine J., Hanley, David A., Dewey, Deborah, Aghajafari, Fariba, Weinberg, Amy, Kaplan, Bonnie J., Ross, Sue
Background The aims of this study were to determine if pregnant women consumed the recommended vitamin D through diet alone or through diet and supplements, and if they achieved the current reference range vitamin D status when their reported dietary intake met the current recommendations....

The effects of antidepressants on the phenotype of activated microglia and ischemia-injured cortical neurons
DownloadFall 2013
Depression is one of the most common disorders appearing following a stroke and is also a major factor limiting recovery and rehabilitation in stroke patients. Several antidepressants have shown to have anti-inflammatory properties within the central nervous system (CNS). The major source of...

The prognosis and outcomes of patients with a ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction and the biochemical and clinical inflammatory response
DownloadSpring 2013
Acute myocardial infarction, and specifically coronary plaque rupture, has been associated with a systemic inflammatory cascade. Using multiple large clinical trial datasets, we sought to further understand the systemic and clinical inflammatory responses in patients with ST-elevation myocardial...

MS is a chronic demyelinating disease of the CNS that presents with debilitating symptoms in the later stages of disease progression and therefore a high demand for targeted disease-modifying treatments exists. In order to create effective treatments the causalities between the symptoms and...

The inflammatory response is a complex biological process initiated following the recognition of noxious stimuli. It is composed of an elaborate cascade of both pro- and anti-inflammatory mediators, essential for effective defenses against infection, the removal of damaged cells, and the...

Nelson, A. G., Spaner, D. M., Frick, B., Clapperton, M.J., Hucl, P. J., Thavarajah, D., Quideau, S. A.
Abstract: Micronutrient deficiencies in the diet of many people are common and wheat is a staple food crop, providing a carbohydrate and micronutrient source to a large percentage of the world’s population. We conducted a field study to compare five Canadian red spring wheat cultivars (released...
