Differential gene network analysis for the identification of asthma-associated therapeutic targets in allergen-specific T-helper memory responses

Differential network analysis of allergen-induced CD4 T cell responses can unmask covert disease-associated genes and pin point novel therapeutic targets

Research

Intracellular growth of Mycobacterium avium subspecies and global transcriptional responses in human macrophages after infection

Mycobacterium avium subsp. avium (Maa) and M. avium subsp. hominissuis (Mah) are environmental mycobacteria and significant opportunistic pathogens.

Breastfeeding and Neonatal Age Influence Neutrophil-Driven Ontogeny of Blood Cell Populations in the First Week of Human Life

The first few days of life are characterized by rapid external and internal changes that require substantial immune system adaptations. Despite growing evidence of the impact of this period on lifelong immune health, this period remains largely uncharted.

Bilateral murine tumor models for characterizing the response to immune checkpoint blockade

This protocol describes bilateral murine tumor models that display a symmetrical yet dichotomous response to immune checkpoint blockade

Research

Immunoinflammatory responses to febrile lower respiratory infections in infants display uniquely complex/intense transcriptomic profiles

the association between infant LRTI and risk for persistent wheeze/asthma in this cohort is generally stronger for fLRTIs than for other infection categories

Research

Respiratory viral infections and host responses; insights from genomics

Review of the viral sensing pathways and organizing principles that govern the innate immune response to infection

Research

Rapid recruitment of CD14+ monocytes in experimentally induced allergic rhinitis in human subjects

Mononuclear phagocyte population is directly involved in the production of proinflammatory chemokines that attract other immune cells

Research

A genomics-based approach to assessment of vaccine safety and immunogenicity in children

This methodology has significant potential to identify covert interactions between inflammatory pathways triggered by vaccination, and as such may be a...

Asthma: Acute asthma flare-up in school-age children

The aim of this study is to identify differences in immune cells that are involved in the disease.
