Association of the Interleukin-1 beta and Interleukin-1 Receptor Accessory Protein Gene Polymorphisms with Persistent Hepatitis B Virus Infection and Hepatocellular Carcinoma
… related to host immune factors. Interleukin-1β (IL-1β) plays significant roles in inflammation and immune defense via IL-1 receptor accessory protein (IL-1RAcP). We investigated whether genetic polymorphisms of IL-1B and IL-1RAcP genes are associated with persistent HBV infection and the presence …

Characterizing Zika and West Nile virus infection in mast cells and the antibody-dependent enhancement potential mediated by dengue virus antibodies
… virus (DENV), Zika virus (ZIKV), and West Nile virus (WNV) are evolutionarily related mosquito-borne viruses with antigenic similarities. The antigenic similarities present between 4 circulating DENV serotypes create an immunological paradox called antibody-dependent enhancement (ADE) …

Brain Inflammation Regulated by PINK1
… PINK1 is a well-known autosomal recessive familial PD gene, expressed in both neurons and glia. In this study, I analyzed the roles of PINK1 in brain inflammation using slice cultures prepared from PINK1 knockout (KO) and wild type (WT) mice since slicing mimics injury. For up to 24 h after …
