Somatosensory processing by rat medial pontomedullary reticular formation neurones : responses to innocuous and noxious thermal and mechanical stimuli by Farham, Craig Jeffrey

“…This work examines somatosensory processing in "giant" neurones of the medial pontomedullary reticular formation (PMRF) in the rat, with particular emphasis on the response to cutaneous thermal stimuli. Thermal test stimuli were employed as these were deemed to be more precisely quantifiable than other forms of cutaneous stimulation. …”

Cellular immune ontogeny and birth transcriptome in HIV-exposed uninfected infants by Kiravu, Agano

“…These were tested in three distinct aims: 1) To identify transcriptional signatures at baseline that delineate cHEU from cHU 2) To compare the expression of surface marker broadly defining activated or regulatory phenotypes and the expression of intracellular markers of T cell function between cHEU and cHU over the first 9 months of life. 3) To characterise how differences in the immunising strains of Bacille Calmette-Gu'erin (BCG), the first vaccine received in these infants, impacts T cell immunity to both mycobacterial and non-mycobacterial antigens in cHEU and cHU. …”
