PMID: 24363656
Front Immunol. 2013 Dec 04;4:421. doi: 10.3389/fimmu.2013.00421.

T cell priming is a critical event in the initiation of the immune response to vaccination since it deeply influences both the magnitude and the quality of the immune response induced. CD4(+) T cell priming, required for the induction...

In this study, we characterize the natural course of metachromatic leukodystrophy (MLD), explore intra/inter group differences, and identify biomarkers to monitor disease progression. This is a longitudinal observational study. Genotype and characteristics at disease onset were recorded. Time-to-event analyses...

Antibacterial Activity of Linezolid against Gram-Negative Bacteria: Utilization of ε-Poly-l-Lysine Capped Silica Xerogel as an Activating Carrier.

Pharmaceutics

Guzel Kaya G, Medaglia S, Candela-Noguera V, Tormo-Mas MÁ, Marcos MD, Aznar E, Deveci H, Martínez-Máñez R.
PMID: 33233423
Pharmaceutics. 2020 Nov 21;12(11). doi: 10.3390/pharmaceutics12111126.

In recent times, many approaches have been developed against drug resistant Gram-negative bacteria. However, low-cost high effective materials which could broaden the spectrum of antibiotics are still needed. In this study, enhancement of linezolid spectrum, normally active against Gram-positive...

Short or Long Interval between Priming and Boosting: Does It Impact on the Vaccine Immunogenicity?.

Vaccines

Pettini E, Pastore G, Fiorino F, Medaglini D, Ciabattini A.
PMID: 33804604
Vaccines (Basel). 2021 Mar 20;9(3). doi: 10.3390/vaccines9030289.

Characterizing the impact of the vaccination schedule on the induction of B and T cell immune responses is critical for improving vaccine immunogenicity. Here we compare the effect of a short (4 weeks) or a long (18 weeks) interval...

From Bivariate to Multivariate Analysis of Cytometric Data: Overview of Computational Methods and Their Application in Vaccination Studies.
