Overview of vaccine adjuvants
Under a Creative Commons license open access Keywords Adjuvants Vaccines Immunopotentiator 1. Introduction Vaccination has protected the human race from many types of infectious diseases. It is a process of mimicking infection in the body leading to the activation of the immune system for the generation of a potent immune response. Adjuvants are defined as materials added to vaccines in order to improve the immunological response.
Macroalgal protein hydrolysates from Palmaria palmata influence the ‘incretin effect’ in vitro via DPP-4 inhibition and upregulation of insulin, GLP-1 and GIP secretion
Abstract Purpose This study investigated metabolic benefits of protein hydrolysates from the macroalgae Palmaria palmata, previously shown to inhibit dipeptidylpeptidase-4 (DPP-4) activity in vitro. Methods Previously, Alcalase/Flavourzyme-produced P. palmata protein hydrolysate (PPPH) improved glycaemia and insulin production in streptozotocin-induced diabetic mice. Here the PPPH, was compared to alternative Alcalase, bromelain and Promod-derived hydrolysates and an unhydrolysed control.
Underreporting of Lyme and Other Tick‐Borne Diseases in Residents of a High‐Incidence County, Minnesota, 2009
Lyme disease (LD), anaplasmosis, babesiosis and other tick‐borne diseases (TBDs) attributed to Ixodes ticks are thought to be widely underreported in the United States. To identify TBD cases diagnosed in 2009, but not reported to the Minnesota Department of Health (MDH), diagnostic and procedural billing codes suggestive of tick‐borne diseases were used to select medical charts for retrospective review in medical facilities serving residents of a highly endemic county in Minnesota.
