Toxicology and Applied Pharmacology, 232, 418-427. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.taap.2008.06.009

This study investigated the uptake, kinetics and cellular distribution of different surface coated quantum dots (QDs) before relating this to their toxicity. J774.A1 cells were treated with organic, COOH and NH2 (PEG) surface coated QDs (40 nM). Mode...

Effect of Nippostrongylus brasiliensis L3 ES on inflammatory mediator gene transcription in lipopolysaccharide lung inflammation (2008)
Journal Article
Zhao, M., Brown, D. M., MacCallum, J., & Proudfoot, L. (2008). Effect of Nippostrongylus brasiliensis L3 ES on inflammatory mediator gene transcription in lipopolysaccharide lung inflammation. Parasite Immunology, 31(1), 50-56. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1

The anti-inflammatory properties of parasitic helminths have been largely linked to their excretory-secretory (ES) products. Some studies have noted a lack of TNF-alpha production and limited recruitment of neutrophils into the lungs after Nippostron...
