  8. [ASAP] Mannan Oligosaccharide Protects against the Aflatoxin-B1-Promoted Influenza Replication and Tissue Damages in a Toll-Like-Receptor-4-Dependent Manner

    • Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry

    • Our previous study reported that aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) promoted influenza replication. Mannan oligosaccharide (MOS), derived from the cell walls of yeast, is a potent immunomodulator. Here, we investigated the role of MOS in AFB1-promoted influenza replication and further explored the underlying mechanisms. In vitro and in vivo, the exposure to AFB1 alone resulted in significantly decreased weight gain and increased viral replication as well as lung and spleen damages.

  15. Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor–Responsive Indoleamine 2,3-Dioxygenase Confers Immune Homeostasis During Shigella flexneri Infection

    • The Journal of Infectious Diseases

    • AbstractThe resolution of Shigella flexneri infection–associated hyperinflammation is crucial for host survival. Using in vitro and in vivo models of shigellosis, we found that S. flexneri induces the expression of indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase 1 (IDO1) through the nucleotide oligomerization domain 2 (NOD2) and epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) signaling pathway.
