Cytokine and Growth Factor Concentrations in Canine Autologous Conditioned Serum
… was to compare growth factor and cytokine profiles in canine autologous conditioned serum (ACS) to canine plasma. Blood collected from 16 medium to large breed dogs was used to produce ACS (Orthokine® vet irap 10 syringes) and citrated plasma (control). Canine-specific ELISA assays were run per …

Conjugated Linoleic Acid in the treatment of murine autoimmune glomerulonephritis
… via Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptor (PPAR)-γ in inflammatory disorders such as Crohn's Disease and Inflammatory Bowel Disease. We sought to determine whether CLA isomers would reduce inflammation via PPAR-γ in cultured mesangial cells, and in murine models of anti-glomerular …

Roles of interleukin-1 beta in glutamate-induced spinal cord injury
… of glutamate toxicity involving activation of interleukin-1â (IL-1â). To assess the effects of glutamate on IL-1â and its natural blocking agent interleukin-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1ra), ELISA assays were used to measure the responses of endogenous IL-1â and IL-1ra to glutamate administered …

Immunological and behavioral consequences of high-fat diet feeding in mice
… that obese mice fed a high-fat diet (HFD), fail to exhibit an interest in saccharin (27% vs 74%) compared to mice fed a low-fat diet (LFD) (p < 0.007). When HFD mice undergo a fasting period of 24 hours, saccharin preferences equilibrate to water consumption (51% saccharin vs 49% water). Other …

The effect of fasting on anti-inflammatory mediators, IL-1RA and IL-1R2, and their role in resistance to sickness behaviors in mice
… (24 h water-only fast) is able to attenuate IL-1β-induced anorexia, in addition to other sickness behaviors at early stages of the acute phase response. We previously reported that fasting was able to reduce gene expression of inflammatory IL-1α in the brain, here we looked at liver and …
