These patients may be more susceptible to bacterial infection of the lungs because of impaired host defenses associated with the disease itself (immune system alterations and organ damage) and the effects on the immune response to bacteria of concomitant immunosuppressive therapy. Cigarette smoking ...

Breast cancer can metastasize to various organs, including the lungs. The immune microenvironment of the organs to be metastasized plays a crucial role in the metastasis of breast cancer. Infection with pathogens such as viruses and bacteria can alter th
to season. These pathogens have developed sustained plant-to-plant infection cycles, often via insect vectors, and, either because of theperennialnature of the host or theassociation of the bacteria with its vegetative propagating organs or seed, they have lost the ability to survive in the soil...
sites of infection or immunization. Thus, flagellin activates T cells in two ways: one is direct activation of T cells and the other is via presentation of the cognate antigen by antigen-presenting cells. Flagellin also activates T regulatory cells (Tregs), which are potent suppressors of T-ce...
Individuals who had a lung transplant before 2017 (n = 296) were also excluded as their transplanted lungs and immunocompromised state would confound results. To define the presence of fungal infection or disease, we used records of positive fungal cultures (sputum, cough/throat swab or ...
The improved resistance to bacterial infection in the PG-1 transgenic mice could be resulted from the direct bacteria-killing activities of PG-1, and the immunomodulatory effects of PG-1 via stimulating interleukin 1 beta secretion. The present study provides a promising genetic strategy to prevent...
