Influenza A virus infection of human primary dendritic cells impairs their ability to cross-present antigen to CD8 T cells. by Anna Smed-Sörensen, Cécile Chalouni, Bithi Chatterjee, Lillian Cohn, Peter Blattmann, Norihiro Nakamura, Lélia Delamarre, Ira Mellman

“…Furthermore, IAV infection also impaired cross-presentation of other exogenous antigens, indicating that IAV infection broadly attenuates presentation on MHC class I molecules. Our results suggest that cross-presentation by uninfected mDCs is a preferred mechanism of antigen-presentation for the activation and expansion of CD8 T cells during IAV infection.…”

Compaction versus Surface Parameters of Certain Solid Catalysts by Anwar Amin, Laila I. Ali, Anwar M. Ibrahim

“…With Mg(OH) 2 , compaction at low pressures decreased S BET and increased the pore dimensions as a result of adhesion between neighbouring particles, leading to a blocking of that fraction of the micropore structure originally accessible to nitrogen molecules. Increasing compaction led to a marked increase in the adsorption capacity as a consequence of plastic deformation associated with the breakage of fragile primary particles and the creation of new surfaces. …”

Therapy of Inflammatory Bowel Disease using New 5-ASA Compounds: An Introduction by Ulrich Klotz

“…Since the active metabolite avoids the toxic potential of sulphapyridine, this perception has initiated new therapeutic approaches, for example, two 5-ASA molecules have been coupled to form another prodrug (olsalazine) which again depends on a proper cleavage of the azobond by bacteria in the colon A more direct way has been applied successfully by administering 5-ASA itself in special galenic formulation (suppositories, enemas, controlled release preparations) to provide enough active material at the proposed sites of action in the terminal ileum and/or colon. …”
