The lack of myelin in the mutant taiep rat induces a differential immune response related to protection to the human parasite Trichinella spiralis

K. E. Nava-Castro, C. Cortes, J. R. Eguibar, V. H. Del Rio-Araiza, R. Hernandez-Bello, J. Morales-Montor

This study investigates immune alterations in taiep rats during Trichinella spiralis infection, finding reduced parasite loads and pro-inflammatory cytokine patterns linked to myelin deficiency.

Toxoplasmicidal in vitro effect of dehydroepiandrosterone on Toxoplasma gondii extracellular tachizoytes

S. Muniz-Hernandez, C. T. Gomez-De Leon, A. Luna-Nophal, L. Dominguez-Ramirez, O. A. Patron-Soberano, K. E. Nava-Castro, P. Ostoa-Saloma, J. Morales-Montor

This paper shows that dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) reduces the viability of Toxoplasma gondii extracellular tachyzoites and alters their structure and molecular expression.

Cellular innate and adaptive immunity are affected by chronic exercise: implication of the cannabinergic system

S. Valencia-Sanchez, J. Morales-Montor, K. E. Nava-Castro, M. I. Palacios-Arreola, O. Prospero-Garcia, R. Drucker-Colin

This study shows chronic exercise in rats reduces certain lymphocyte subpopulations and alters cannabinoid receptor expression, with increased splenocyte proliferation, suggesting exercise impacts immune function through complex mechanisms.
