during daytime waking and nighttime sleeping. In addition, sleep physiology was assessed in …

Fibrin deposition and thrombosis within the microvasculature is now appreciated to play a
pivotal role in the hepatocellular injury observed in experimental and human viral hepatitis. …

We have established that, in mice receiving donor-specific immunization by the portal vein,
the increased graft survival seen is associated with the increased expression of a molecule (…

Fibrinogen-like protein 2 (fgl2)/fibroleukin is a member of the fibrinogen-related protein
superfamily. In addition to its established role in triggering thrombosis, it is known to be secreted …

Background. CD200 is a transmembrane protein delivering immunoregulatory signals after
engagement of CD200R. A family of CD200Rs exist (CD200R1–4) with different tissue …

DBA/1 mice immunized with 100 μg bovine collagen type II emulsified in Freund's adjuvant,
followed by booster injection in incomplete adjuvant at 18 days, develop profound arthritis (>…

A diverse array of cell surface receptors is known to control immune function, reflecting the
integration of positive and negative signaling. Many receptors with opposing functions are …

Fibrinogen‐like protein 2 (FGL2) is a multifunctional protein, which has been implicated in
the pathogenesis of allograft and xenograft rejection. Previously, FGL2 was shown to inhibit …

Serum cytokine and chemokine levels were examined in mice following 36h of sleep deprivation,
or after exposure to a known physical stressor (rotational stress). Significant changes …
