The Safety of Alcaligenes Lipid A in a Virus-Induced Immune Disease Model Associated with IgA, Th17 Cells, and Microbiota

Journal Article Viruses · January 23, 2026 Lipid A is a component of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) of Gram-negative bacteria. Previously, we demonstrated that synthesized lipid A derived from Alcaligenes faecalis (ALA) could enhance antigen-specific immunoglobulin (Ig) A and T helper (Th) 17 res ... Full text Cite

Gut Microbiota in a Viral Model of Multiple Sclerosis: Modulation and Pitfalls by Oral Antibiotic Treatment.

Journal Article Cells · June 2025 Viral infections have been associated with multiple sclerosis (MS), an immune-mediated disease in the central nervous system (CNS). Since Theiler's murine encephalomyelitis virus (TMEV) can induce MS-like demyelination, TMEV infection is the most widely us ... Full text Cite

Exploring the Role of Platelets in Virus-Induced Inflammatory Demyelinating Disease and Myocarditis.

Journal Article International journal of molecular sciences · March 2024 Theiler's murine encephalomyelitis virus (TMEV) infection has been used as a mouse model for two virus-induced organ-specific immune-mediated diseases. TMEV-induced demyelinating disease (TMEV-IDD) in the central nervous system (CNS) is a chronic inflammat ... Full text Cite
