    • Breastfeeding reduces immune activation in primary respiratory syncytial virus infection 
      Roine, Irmeli; Fernandez, J. Alonso; Vásquez, Alicia; Cáneo, Marianella (2005)
      In epidemiological studies of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) disease, breast milk has proven to be beneficial. However, a host mechanism that is associated with both disease severity and that is capable of being modulated ...
    • Gene-deleted live-attenuated Trypanosoma cruzi parasites as vaccines to protect against Chagas disease 
      Sánchez Valdéz, Fernando J.; Pérez Brandán, Cecilia; Ferreira, Arturo; Basombrío, Miguel Ángel (Expert Reviews, 2014)
      Chagas disease is a neglected tropical disease caused by the protozoan parasite Trypanosoma cruzi. This illness is now becoming global, mainly due to congenital transmission, and so far, there are no prophylactic or ...
    • Genetic polymorphisms in the immune response: A focus on kidney transplantation 
      Stojanova, Jana; Pouche, Lucie; Picard, Nicolas (Elsevier, 2016)
      The modulation of the immune system following solid organ transplantation has made considerable progress with new immunosuppressive regimens and has considerably improved rejections rates. The improvement in long-term ...
    • Impaired immune response in severe human lower tract respiratory infection by respiratory syncytial virus 
      Larrañaga, Carmen L.; Ampuero, Sandra L.; Luchsinger, Vivian F.; Carrión, Flavio A.; Aguilar, Nelson V.; Morales, Pamela R.; Palomino Montenegro, María Angélica; Tapia, Lorena F.; Avendaño, Luis F. (Lippincott Williams and Wilkins, 2009)
      Background: Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is a major cause of acute lower respiratory infection in infants. The immune response plays a leading role in the severity of the disease. We hypothesized that severe RSV disease ...
    • Live-cell imaging of Salmonella Typhimurium interaction with zebrafish larvae after injection and immersion ... 
      Varas, Macarena; Fariña, Alonso; Díaz Pascual, Francisco; Ortíz-Severín, Javiera; Marcoleta, Andrés E.; Allende Connelly, Miguel; Santiviago, Carlos A.; Chávez, Francisco P. (Elsevier B.V., 2017)
      © 2017The zebrafish model has been used to determine the role of vertebrate innate immunity during bacterial infections. Here, we compare the in vivo immune response induced by GFP-tagged Salmonella Typhimurium inoculated ...
    • The interplay between ambient temperature and salt intake affects oxidative status and immune responses in ... 
      Sabat Kirkwood, Alejandro Pablo; Bozinovic, Francisco; Contreras-Ramos, Carolina; Nespolo, Roberto F.; Newsome, Seth D.; Quirici, Veronica; Maldonado, Karin; Peña-Villalobos, Isaac; Ramirez-Otarola, Natalia; Sanchez-Hernandez, Juan Carlos (Elsevier Inc., 2019)
      © 2019 Elsevier Inc.Physiological traits associated with maintenance, growth, and reproduction demand a large amount of energy and thus directly influence an animal's energy budget, which is also regulated by environmental ...
