DOI: 10.1002/dc.23850
Abstract: Filariasis is mainly a disease of tropics, which is caused by two nematodes Wuchereria bancrofti and Brugia malayi. They are responsible for 90% and 10% of the cases and are transmitted by Culex and Mansonia… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/jlb.3a0218-072r
Abstract: Ascitic neutrophils from cirrhotic patients with spontaneous bacterial peritonitis (SBP) exhibit an impaired oxidative burst that could facilitate bacterial infection. However, the influence of the cell‐free ascitic fluid of these patients on neutrophil function has… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41467-019-10334-6
Abstract: Organ-specific colonization suggests that specific cell–cell recognition is essential. Yet, very little is known about this particular interaction. Moreover, tumor cell lodgement requires binding under shear stress, but not static, conditions. Here, we successfully isolate… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/cyt.13078
Abstract: Well-differentiated papillary mesothelioma is a rare mesothelial proliferation that predominantly affects the peritoneum of female patients. Due to its relatively indolent clinical behavior, it recently has been renamed well-differentiated papillary mesothelial tumor (WDPMT) by the… read more here.
