Persistence of Multiple Paramyxoviruses in a Closed Captive Colony of Fruit Bats ( Eidolon helvum )
Louise Gibson, Maria Puig Ribas, James Kemp, Olivier Restif, Richard D. Suu-Ire, James L. N. Wood, Andrew A. Cunningham
Aug 26, 2021
Bats have been identified as the natural hosts of several emerging zoonotic viruses, including paramyxoviruses, such as Hendra and Nipah viruses, that can cause fatal disease in humans. Recently, African fruit bats with...
PPARs and Metabolic Disorders Associated with Challenged Adipose Tissue Plasticity.
Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs) are members of a family of nuclear hormone receptors that exert their transcriptional control on genes harboring PPAR-responsive regulatory elements (PPRE) in partnership with...
PI3K p110δ is expressed by gp38(-)CD31(+) and gp38(+)CD31(+) spleen stromal cells and regulates their CCL19, CCL21, and LTβR mRNA levels.
