Application

Carboxylate-modified polystyrene latex beads have been used to collect morphofunctional data about the immune systems of Carabus lefebvrei, a helicophagous Italian endemic ground beetle often used as an indicator of the habitat quality of the Apennines mountain forests. Carboxylate-modified polystyrene latex beads have also been used to inform comparative studies on immunity defense mechanisms of adults and larvae of the coleopteran Cetonischema aeruginosa and to investigate the phagocytic activity of cultured rat thyroid cells.
Latex beads, carboxylate-modified polystyrene, fluorescent yellow-green has been used:
  • in epidermal growth factor conjugate preparation for indirect immunofluorescence imaging studies
  • for culturing mouse bronchoalveolar macrophages and human monocyte-derived macrophages prior to phagocytosis imaging studies
  • in coadministration with Salmonella expressed green fluorescent protein (GFP) for confocal microscopy studies and in biofluorescence imaging

There is now substantial evidence that the cytokine interleukin-17 orchestrates the accumulation of neutrophils in mammals and thereby contributes to host defense. However, the role of IL-17 in controlling neutrophil turnover is not fully understood. Here, we demonstrate that IL-17

To evaluate the effect of CX3CL1/CX3CR1 signaling on the interaction between mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and retinal microglia. Supernatants of homogenized retina were harvested from light-damaged SD rats (ISHR) to stimulated retinal microglia. Stimulated microglia were cocultured with MSCs, CX3CL1
