DENSE GRANULE PROTEIN 3 OF TOXOPLASMA GONDII PLAYS A CRUCIAL ROLE IN THE CAPABILITY OF THE TISSUE CYSTS OF THE PARASITE TO PERSIST IN THE PRESENCE OF ANTI-CYST CD8+ T CELLS DURING THE CHRONIC STAGE OF INFECTION

Toxoplasma gondii establishes chronic infection by forming tissue cysts, and this chronic infection is one of the most common parasitic infections in humans.Our recent studies revealed that whereas CD8+ T cells of genetically resistant BALB/c mice have the capability to remove the tissue cysts of the parasite through their perforin-mediated activit

Ice Cream Scoops This article presents experimental data and nonlinear finite element analysis (NLFEA) modeling for an innovative buckling restrained bracing (BRB) system.The data were collected from qualification testing of introduced BRBs per the AISC 341 test provision and finite element modeling.The BRB is made of three parts: core bar, restrai

Bovine mastitis is the most important infectious disease, causing significant losses in the dairy industry, in which Streptococcus agalactiae is a major pathogen.In this study, lysin CHAPk, derived from bacteriophage K, was expressed heterogeneously, and its antimicrobial and anti-biofilm effects against S.agalactiae isolated from bovine mastitis w
