Because previous work showed that in the newborn brain, but not in the adult brain, glutamate decarboxylase (GAD) is notably susceptible to heat, we have studied the possible involvement of GAD inhibition in febrile convulsions and the related changes in gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) content. Rats
Shigella sonnei and Salmonella Typhi cause significant morbidity and mortality. We exploited the safety record of the oral, attenuated S. Typhi vaccine (Ty21a) by using it as a vector to develop a bivalent oral vaccine to protect against S. sonnei shigellosis and typhoid fever. We recombineered the
There are conflicting data regarding alterations in beta-amyloid precursor protein (APP) mRNAs in Alzheimer's disease (AD). This may be due partly to variables such as agonal state and choice of control group. We have used in situ hybridization histochemistry to study expression of APP mRNAs, with
Puumala hantavirus (PUUV) infection causes nephropathia epidemica (NE), a relatively mild form of haemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS). Hypophyseal haemorrhage and hypopituitarism have been described in case reports on patients with acute NE. Chronic hypopituitarism diagnosed months or
