A novel role for interleukin-1 receptor signaling in the developmental regulation of immune responses to endotoxinSuggests that IL-1R1 expression provides an additional level of Myd88-dependent signaling during this period of heighted susceptibility to infection.

Cytokine Responses to Novel Antigens in an Indian Population Living in an Area Endemic for Visceral LeishmaniasisHere we employ whole blood assays to evaluate human cytokine responses to 11 of these antigens, in comparison to known defined and crude antigen preparations.

Maternal work hours in early to middle childhood link to later adolescent diet qualityPrevious studies on maternal work hours and child diet quality have reported conflicting findings possibly due to differences in study design, lack of a...

RSV prophylaxis use in high-risk infants in Western Australia, 2002-2013: a record linkage cohort studyThe monoclonal antibody, palivizumab is licensed for use in high-risk infants to prevent severe illness caused by respiratory syncytial virus (RSV). The level of its use and compliance with current jurisdictional guidelines which were amended in 2010, is unknown.

Genetics, Transcriptomics and Meta-Taxonomics in Visceral LeishmaniasisVisceral leishmaniasis (VL) caused by parasites of the Leishmania donovani complex can be fatal in susceptible individuals. Understanding the interactions between host and pathogen is one way to obtain leads to develop better drugs and for vaccine development. In recent years multiple omics-based approaches have assisted researchers to gain a more global picture of this interaction in leishmaniasis. Here we review results from studies using three omics-based approaches to study VL caused by L. donovani in India.
