## Abstract ## Objective Cells commonly die without eliciting autoimmunity. However, dying cells are a potential initiating stimulus for systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Our goal was to verify whether immune adjuvants influence the autoimmunity induction that ensues following in vivo injection

The sensitivity of immature thymocytes to antigen-induced deletion has been shown to correlate with their differentiation status. By using an in vitro approach we have investigated whether parameters of antigenic stimulation may also affect the response of thymocytes. Two T cell receptor (TcR)-trans
## Abstract Esophageal cancer is a leading cause of cancer death, especially in developing countries. In high‐risk regions, squamous cell carcinoma is the most common type of esophageal cancer, and its etiology remains poorly understood. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the association bet
Electronic cell counters may underestimate the white blood cell count (WBCC) in the presence of aggregated leukocytes. In the present study we focused on the possibility of using a functional, as opposed to an anatomic, count to circumvent this eventual underestimation. A model of bacterial infectio
