Air-borne viable, non-viable, and allergenic fungi in a rural agricultural area of India: a 2-year study at five outdoor sampling stations
Adhikari, Anupam; Sen, Moonmoon; Gupta-Bhattacharya, Swati; Chanda, Sunirmal (ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2004-06-29)The information on airborne allergenic fungal flora in rural agricultural areas is largely lacking. Adequate information is not available to the bioaerosol researchers regarding the choice of single versus multiple sampling ... -
Amphotericin B regulates the host immune response in visceral leishmaniasis: reciprocal regulation of protein kinase C isoforms.
Mukherjee, Asok Kumar; Gupta, Gaurav; Bhattacharjee, Surajit; Guha, Subhasis Kamal; Majumder, Saikat; Adhikari, Anupam; Bhattachrya, Parna; Majumdar, Suchandra Bhattacharyya; Majumdar, Subrata (W B SAUNDERS, 2010-07)OBJECTIVES: Treatment of visceral leishmaniasis (VL) is marked by the failure of pentavalent antimonials which has brought amphotericin B (AmpB) to the forefront. In this study we have focused on signaling pathway ... -
Anti-IL-10 mAb protection against experimental visceral leishmaniasis via induction of Th1 cytokines and nitric oxide
Bhattacharjee, Surajit; Gupta, Gaurav; Bhattacharya, Parna; Adhikari, Anupam; Majumdar, Suchandra Bhattacharya; Majumdar, Subrata (NATL INST SCIENCE COMMUNICATION, 2009-06)Visceral leishmaniasis is characterized by severe immune suppression of the host. This suppression of the host immune system is primarily mediated by the immunosuppressive cytokine Interleukin-10 (IL-10), whose levels are ... -
Arabinosylated Lipoarabinomannan-Mediated Protection in Visceral Leishmaniasis through Up-Regulation of Toll-Like Receptor 2 Signaling: An Immunoprophylactic Approach
Bhattacharya, P.; Bhattacharjee, Surajit; Gupta, Gaurav; Majumder, S.; Adhikari, Anupam; Mukherjee, A.; Majumdar, S. B.; Saha, Bhaskar; Majumdar, Subrata (OXFORD UNIV PRESS INC, 2010-07-01)Visceral leishmaniasis is characterized by severe immunosuppression of the host cell, resulting in loss of the proinflammatory response. Toll-like receptor 2 (TLR2) is involved in myriad disease forms, including visceral ... -
CXC Chemokine-Mediated Protection against Visceral Leishmaniasis: Involvement of the Proinflammatory Response
Gupta, Gaurav; Bhattacharjee, Surajit; Bhattacharyya, Sandip; Bhattacharya, Parna; Adhikari, Anupam; Mukherjee, Asok; Majumdar, Suchandra Bhattacharyya; Majumdar, Subrata (UNIV CHICAGO PRESS, 2009-10-15)Visceral leishmaniasis, caused by the protozoan parasite Leishmania donovani, is characterized by the loss of ability of the host to generate an effective immune response. In the present study, the comparative potential ...
