Avian has a unique immune system that evolved in response to environmental pressures in
all aspects of innate and adaptive immune responses, including localized and circulating …

After a decade of the “modern era” of zebrafish hematology research, what have been their
major contributions to hematology and what challenges does the model face? This review …

This chapter describes the current state of knowledge of avian cytokines, concentrating on
the chicken. It describes the different families of cytokines and their receptors, reagents and …

Granulocyte colony-stimulating factor receptor (GCSFR) signaling participates in the
production of neutrophilic granulocytes during normal hematopoietic development, with a …

Granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (Gcsf) drives the proliferation and differentiation of
granulocytes, monocytes, and macrophages (mφs) from hematopoietic stem and progenitor …

Vaccination is the most appropriate way to control pathogens that threaten the global
aquaculture industry. Unfortunately, vaccines generally do not provide satisfactory immune …

The glycoprotein (G protein) gene, but not other genes, of fish rhabdoviruses, when used as
a DNA vaccine was previously shown to be highly effective in inducing a protective immune …

Although in broad terms the avian immune response is remarkably similar to that of
mammals, when one looks at specifics birds have a different repertoire of immune organs …

Granulocyte colony-stimulating factor is a cytokine able to stimulate both myelopoiesis and
hematopoietic stem cell mobilization, which has seen it used extensively in the clinic to aid …

Interferons (IFNs) are important for the defense against intracellular pathogens. Interferon
regulatory factor 10 (IRF10) is a transcript factor involved in regulating IFN signaling induced …
