BINDING OF CANDIDA ALBICANS TO HUMAN CEACAM1 AND CEACAM6 MODULATES THE INFLAMMATORY RESPONSE OF INTESTINAL EPITHELIAL CELLS

Binding of Candida albicans to Human CEACAM1 and CEACAM6 Modulates the Inflammatory Response of Intestinal Epithelial Cells

ABSTRACT Candida albicans hp s14 colonizes human mucosa, including the gastrointestinal tract, as a commensal.In immunocompromised patients, C.albicans can breach the intestinal epithelial barrier and cause fatal invasive infections.Carcinoembryonic antigen-related cell adhesion molecule 1 (CEACAM1; CD66a), CEACAM5 (CEA), and CEACAM6 (CD66c) are im

Welfare of organic laying hens kept at different indoor stocking densities in a multi-tier aviary system. II: live weight, health measures and perching

Multi-tier aviary systems, where conveyor belts below the tiers remove the manure at regular intervals, are becoming more common in organic egg production.The area on the tiers can be included in the net area available to the hens (also referred to as usable area) when calculating maximum indoor stocking densities in organic systems within the EU.I
