The neuropeptide substance P (SP) mediates pain transmission, immune modulation, vasodilation and neurogenic inflammation. Its role in the peripheral nervous system has been well characterised. However, its actions on the blood-brain barrier (BBB) ar...

Clostridium difficile is an anaerobic, Gram-positive, and spore-forming bacterium that is the leading worldwide infective cause of hospital-acquired and antibiotic-associated diarrhea. Several studies have reported associations between humoral immuni... Read More about Profiling humoral immune responses to Clostridium difficile-specific antigens by protein microarray analysis.
