Effects of Lactobacillus rhamnosus LA68 on the immune system of C57BL/6 mice upon oral administration
(Cambridge Univ Press, New York, 2014)
Probiotic bacteria have been used in human nutrition for centuries and are now attracting more attention. In order to examine the immunological aspects of probiotic consumption, Lactobacillus rhamnosus LA68 was orally ...
Intra- and inter-population variability of food preferences of two natrix species on the Balkan peninsula
(Herpetological Conservation & Biology, Corvallis, 2014)
In aquatic and surrounding terrestrial ecosystems, snakes of the genus Natrix are among the top predators, feeding predominantly on fishes and amphibians, but also on other reptiles and small mammals. In the diets of Natrix ...

Noradrenaline modulates CD4+T cell priming in rat experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis: a role for the alpha(1)-adrenoceptor
(Humana Press Inc, Totowa, 2019)
Pharmacological blockade of alpha(1)-adrenoceptor is shown to influence development of experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE), an IL-17-producing CD4+TCR+ (Th17) cell-mediated disease mimicking multiple sclerosis. ...
Infection-induced autoantibodies and pregnancy related pathology: an animal model
(Csiro Publishing, Clayton, 2014)
In addition to being the main cause of mortality worldwide, bacterial and viral infections can be the cause of autoimmune and pregnancy disorders as well. The production of autoantibodies during infection can be explained ...
Changes in Composition of IgM Polymers in Patients Suffering from Recurrent Urinary Bacterial Infections after Bacterial Immunization Treatment
(Taylor & Francis Inc, Philadelphia, 2010)
IgM is the first antibody produced during the immune response to infection or immunization, and it can be secreted as pentamer (containing a small polypeptide, termed as J chain) or hexamer (lacking J chain). In this paper ...

Lectins are a highly diverse group of proteins whose biological functions have been associated with the carbohydrate binding activities. Banana lectin is a member of the jacalin-related family of lectins, and belongs to ...
Role of gonadal hormones in programming developmental changes in thymopoietic efficiency and sexual diergism in thymopoiesis
(Humana Press Inc, Totowa, 2012)
There is a growing body of evidence indicating the important role of the neonatal steroid milieu in programming sexually diergic changes in thymopoietic efficiency, which in rodents occur around puberty and lead to a ...
Pertussis vaccine-induced experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis in mice

A small dose of the Bordetella pertussis vaccine is used as an adjuvant for the induction of experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) in mice. The effects of two doses of the Pertussis vaccine on clinical signs, ...
Polymorphisms of the Prion Protein Gene (PRNP) in a Serbian Population
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, Abingdon, 2010)
Prion diseases are a group of etiologically heterogenous neurodegenerative disorders. We have analyzed the coding region of PRNP gene in 121 healthy citizens of Serbia to determine whether the frequencies of M129V, E219K, ...
