(2015)
The cells of the immune system are broadly divided into those that belong to the innate arm of immunity and those that belong to the adaptive immune system(1) The innate immune cells include macrophages, dendritic cells ...
Implications of lymphocyte anergy to glycolipids in multiple sclerosis (MS): iNKT cells may mediate the MS infectious trigger
(2013)
Immunogenic lipids may play key roles in host defenses against infection and in generating autoimmune inflammation and organ-specific damage. In multiple sclerosis (MS) there are unequivocal autoimmune features and ...
Ireland’s understudied flatfish: reproduction, age and growth of the dab Limanda limanda (L.) in Irish coastal waters
(2012)
In Ireland, although flatfish form a valuable fishery, little is known about the smallest, the dab Limanda limanda. In this study, a variety of parameters of reproductive development, including ovarian phase description, ...
An abundance estimate for humpback whales Megaptera novaeangliae breeding around Boa Vista, Cape Verde Islands
(2014)
The abundance of humpback whales occurring around Boa Vista, Cape Verde Islands, was estimated by mark-recapture modelling. Photographs of markings on tail flukes of individual whales were collected during the breeding ...
Investigation of the substrate specificity of glutamyl endopeptidase using casein substrates
(2011)
Electrophoretically and chromatographically pure P-casein was prepared from acid caseinate exploiting the differential solubility of different caseins in the presence of Ca2+ at 4°C and 30°C. The yield of P-casein was ...
