GENOME POLITICS: STRATEGY AND TACTICS by Jonas Rubikas

“…For better realization of information in some cases the genome changes the usual way of expression, that is, the genome uses some tactical approaches: at the DNA level - restructuring of the genome (mating type in yeasts, sex determination in some flies and worms, V(D)J recombination in immunoglobulin genes in human B lymphocytes); at the RNA level - gene splicing, alternative and self splicing, RNA editing; at the protein level - protein splicing. …”

The immunity-promoting activity of porcine placenta in mice as an immunomodulator for functional foods by Zhiwei Zhou, Dan Wang, Wei Liu, Lang He, Pengkuan Liang, Junli Hao, Qun Sun

“…Mice model experiment revealed that compared with the control, the PPH treatment significantly improved the spleen index (P < 0.05) by increasing the phagocytic rate of macrophages from 20 % to 60 % and the conversion rate of T lymphocytes from 8 % to 60 %. The qPCR analysis disclosed that the porcine placenta powder enhanced mice immunity via promoting the expression of Th1 cytokines of interleukin-2 (IL-2) and IFN-γ, especially the former, by almost 8 times in the spleens of male mice, while inhibited Th2 cytokines of IL-4 and IL-10. …”
