The Development of Wheeled Transportation in Osun Division of Southwestern Nigeria, 1900-1960 by AbiodunAjayi

“…In fact, it was an innovation in Africa where people had relied on some navigable waterways in the coastal areas, park animals in the tsetse flies free areas like Northern Nigeria and trekking along foot paths where human head porterage predominated. However, with the advent of the wheeled transportation technology, economic horizon became broader as people were provided with more profitable endeavors to engage themselves with. …”

Lipid Isolated from a Leishmania donovani Strain Reduces Escherichia coli Induced Sepsis in Mice through Inhibition of Inflammatory Responses by Subhadip Das, Nabanita Chatterjee, Dipayan Bose, Somenath Banerjee, Prajnamoy Pal, Tarun Jha, Krishna Das Saha

“…We have reported earlier that the lipid of attenuated Leishmania donovani suppresses the inflammatory responses in arthritis patients. Using heat killed E. coli stimulated macrophages, we have now investigated the effect of leishmanial total lipid (LTL) isolated from Leishmania donovani (MHO/IN/1978/UR6) for amelioration of the inflammatory mediators and transcriptional factor with suppression of TLR4-CD14 expression. …”

Le mythe du microcèbe primitif by Fabien Génin, Judith C Masters

“…They probably experienced at least 3 independent events of dwarfing which lead to parallel changes in the proportions of the head and limbs (allometry). The first one (dwarfing) has led to a decrease in the size of body and limbs, without any significant change in cranial form (with the exception of teeth) in the largest forms Phaner, Mirza, and the largest forms of the genus Cheirogaleus). …”

IL-34 Suppresses Candida albicans Induced TNFα Production in M1 Macrophages by Downregulating Expression of Dectin-1 and TLR2 by Rong Xu, Hong-Fan Sun, David W. Williams, Adam V. Jones, Ali Al-Hussaini, Bing Song, Xiao-Qing Wei

“…In this study, it was demonstrated that IL-34 attenuated TNFα production by M1 macrophages challenged with heat killed Candida (HKC). The molecular mechanism of IL-34 mediated suppression of HKC induced TNFα production by M1 macrophages was by the inhibition of M1 macrophage expression of key C. albicans pattern recognition receptors (PPRs), namely, Toll-like receptor (TLR) 2 and Dectin-1. …”
