BACKGROUND: Expansion of type 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2s) in hypercholesterolaemic mice protects against atherosclerosis while different ILC2 subsets have been described (natural, inflammatory) based on their suppression of tumorigenicity 2 (ST2) and killer-cell lectin like receptor G1 (KLRG1) expression. The aim of the current study is to characterize the interleukin 25 (IL25)-induced splenic
The objective of this study is to point out an effective alternative in the treatment of the cranial and caudal cruciate ligaments rupture in dogs, with no association of external immobilization. Six dogs with rupture of both cruciate ligaments were included in the present study. Stifle joint was surgically stabilized by an intracapsular technique, using two polypropylene synthetic implants. The a
The race to publish results during the outbreak of the new coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) has highlighted the relevance of sharing data and research results more quickly and openly than the current scientific communication system, as well as the role of social media in this context. This paper aims to analyze the impact of open access on the production and dissemination of knowledge about COVID-19 in tr
Background: To identify apolipoprotein E (APOE)-specific factors that may predict life expectancy after a diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Method: The Swedish Alzheimer Treatment Study (SATS) is a prospective, observational, clinical-practice-based, multicentre study that includes 999 participants diagnosed with mild-to-moderate AD at the start of cholinesterase inhibitor (ChEI) therapy (tim
Background: Immunization of animals with LDL reduces atherosclerosis. However, whether the timing of immunization affects its efficacy is not known. In this study, we evaluated the influence of timing of immunization on the athero-protective effects of LDL immunization in apo E (-/-) mice. Methods and results: Hypercholesterolemic apo E (-/-) mice were immunized with native LDL (nLDL) at age of 6-
