To explore the differently expressed genes in BMDM after the treatment with S1P or DAMPs (Damage associated molecular patterns). BMDM cells were incubated with apoptotic cell culture medium (ACM) or S
Given the dearth of new antibiotics, host-directed therapies (HDTs) are especially desirable. Since IFN-gamma (IFNγ) plays a central role in host resistance to intracellular bacteria, including Mycoba
To confirm the changed gene expression profiles in GPR15 knock out (KO) macrophages, we applied a SurePrint G3 Mouse Gene Expression service from Takara Bio Inc (Kusatsu, Shiga, Japan) to analyze gene
Double transgenic Tg(mpeg1:EGFP) and Tg(lyz:DsRed2) larvae infected with Mm were imaged alive every ~60 sec from 1 hpi to 17 hpi by CLSM (Nikon A1). The GFP-positive (green) macrophages containing a M
Despite their high degree of genomic similarity, different spotted fever group (SFG) Rickettsia are often associated with very different clinical presentations. For example, Rickettsia conorii causes
