To assess the effects of adding a topical steroid to topical antibiotics in the treatment of people with chronic suppurative otitis media

Research

Cellular and molecular mechanisms of vitamin D in food allergy

Epidemiological evidence from the past decade suggests a role of vitamin D in food allergy pathogenesis

Research

β-Lactamase Tools for Establishing Cell Internalization and Cytosolic Delivery of Cell Penetrating Peptides

The β-lactamase assays provide compatible tools for functional characterization of CPP activity and the delivery of biological cargos into cells

Research

Large-Scale Structural Variation Detection in Subterranean Clover Subtypes Using Optical Mapping

The accuracy of structural variations detection by Bionano optical mapping is highly dependent on the quality of reference genomes and the density of selected nickases

Research

Evolving Trends of Gastrostomy Insertion Within a Pediatric Population

New gastrostomy insertion among children who require long-term enteral feeding support increased over the study period

Research

Vitamin D supplementation of initially vitamin D-deficient mice diminishes lung inflammation with limited effects on pulmonary epithelial integrity

In disease settings, vitamin D may be important for maintaining optimal lung epithelial integrity and suppressing inflammation, but less is known of its effects prior to disease onset.

CFTR-dependent defect in alternatively-activated macrophages in cystic fibrosis

CFTR-dependent imbalance of macrophage phenotypes and functions could contribute to the exaggerated inflammatory response seen in CF lung disease

Research

PGE2 pulsing of murine bone marrow cells reduces migration of daughter monocytes/macrophages in vitro and in vivo

Our results reveal long-lasting changes to progenitor cells of monocytes/macrophages by a 2-hour dimethyl PGE2 pulse that, in turn, limits the migration of their daughter cells to chemoattractants and inflammatory mediators.
