1. Switching ON Fetal B Lymphopoiesis
Abstract : B-1a cells are innate-like lymphocytes that develop primarily during fetal and neonatal life, whereas adult bone marrow (BM) hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) preferentially give rise to follicular B-2 cells. Functioning at the interface of the innate and adaptive immune systems, B-1a cells provide a non-redundant first line of defense prior to the temporally delayed establishment of a B-2 cell response.

3. Cellular receptors for species B adenoviruses
Abstract : Adenoviruses belong to the most common human pathogens. The severity of infection varies greatly, from subclinical to lethal, depending on the virus type and immune status of the infected host. The 51 known human adenovirus serotypes are divided into six species (A-F) based on characteristics such as tropism. READ MORE

5. Deep Candida infections. Serology for laboratory diagnosis and antifungal activity of lactoferrin derived fragments
Abstract : Deep Candida infections (DCI) in patients who are immunocompromised or in intensive care units present both diagnostic and therapeutic problems. Serological tests for diagnosis of invasive fungal infections are used with varying results. Moreover, long term therapies with antifungal agents have led to the emergence of resistant Candida strains. READ MORE
