The role of pulmonary innate and adaptive immune responses to helminth infection by Thawer, Sumaiyya G

“…These results demonstrated that effective CD4+ T cell Th2 immunity can be generated at peripheral sites by pre-existing T cell populations, independently of T cell recruitment from secondary lymphoid organs (SLO). …”

Exploring the gene regulatory dynamics of the maturing human brain by Fillmore, Stephanie

“…Bio-banked pediatric and adult brain tissue samples, obtained during surgery to treat epilepsy, were used to optimise and generate a nuclei isolation protocol. Single nuclei RNA-seq (snRNA-seq) libraries were generated using the 10x Genomics Platform. snRNA-seq datasets were then sequenced and analysed using bioinformatics tools, including Cell Ranger and Seurat. …”

A tumour suppressor role for the T-box transcription factor TBX3 in fibroblasts by Cooper, Aretha

“…To determine the function of TBX3 in transformed fibroblast and fibro sarcoma cells, cell culture models were generated in which TBX3 was stably knocked down in transformed CT-1 cells, as well as the naturally occurring aggressive HT1080 cell line, and the effect on key features of oncogenesis determined. …”

Mechanical handling effects on brewers' yeast by Robinson, Andrew

“…Within this environment the yeast is subjected to mechanical handling which exposes the cells to shear stress. It is known that biological particles are sensitive to hydrodynamic stress and the resultant biological response may be observed by a decrease growth rate (Cherry and Papoutsakis, 1988), decreased viability, vitality and fermentation performance (Basson et aI., 1996), release of enzymes (Stathopoulos and Hellums, 1985), the release of fine particles from the cell wall (Lewis and Poerwantaro, 1991) and cell disruption (Engler and Robinson, 1981 ; Zhang et al., 1993). …”
