Human microbiota plays a fundamental role in modulating the immune response. Western environment and lifestyle are envisaged to alter the human microbiota with a new microbiome profile established in Chinese immigrants, which fails to prime the immune system. Here, we investigated how differences in composition of oropharyngeal microbiome may contribute to patterns of interaction between the microbiome and immune system in Chinese immigrants living in Australia.
Here we show that transfected macrophages stably expressing wild-type Nramp1 (Nramp1+) control the net replication of B. thailandensis, but not B. pseudomallei.
These results contribute to our understanding of immunopathology associated with visceral leishmaniasis and response to sodium stibogluconate treatment
We found no increased risk of poor development among boys with hypospadias or undescended testis
Here, we confirm four intercontinental species of avian trypanosomes in native Australian birds, and identify a new avian Trypanosoma.
Compared the in vitro susceptibility of two strains of Trypanosoma copemani and one strain of T. cruzi against drugs that show trypanocidal activity
We believe this data represents a useful resource to understand the central nervous system in macaque.
Combining these findings with conservation data, we identify 19,175 potentially functional lncRNAs in the human genome.
Our findings are in line with a number of epidemiological studies which show a positive association between breastfeeding and OM in early childhood
