Usinger W, Lucas A
Infect Immun . 1999 May; 67(5):2366-70. PMID: 10225896
Antibodies reactive with capsular polysaccharides are considered the principal mediators of immunity against invasive diseases caused by Streptococcus pneumoniae. In this study, we tested the hypothesis that anti-pneumococcal capsular polysaccharide...

J Immunol . 1998 May; 160(10):5028-36. PMID: 9590252
The poor immunogenicity of the Neisseria meningitidis group B polysaccharide capsule, a homopolymer of alpha(2-->8) sialic acid, has been attributed to immunologic tolerance induced by prenatal exposure to host polysialyated...

Vaccine . 1997 Dec; 15(17-18):1902-7. PMID: 9413100
Six adjuvant formulations were compared for their ability to potentiate the primary and memory antibody responses in mice to three companion animal vaccine immunogens--feline leukemia virus (FeLV), feline immunodeficiency virus...

Zeidner N, Belasco D, Dreitz M, Frank G, Usinger W
Vaccine . 1995 Oct; 13(14):1294-9. PMID: 8585283
Gliding bacterial adjuvant (GBA) has been previously characterized as a potent immune modulator, stimulating the growth of murine B lymphocytes, inducing murine NK cell activity, and promoting the release of...

Hanzel D, Urushidani T, Usinger W, Smolka A, Forte J
Am J Physiol . 1989 Jun; 256(6 Pt 1):G1082-9. PMID: 2472073
Monoclonal antibodies were raised against an 80-kDa phosphoprotein (80K) that is phosphorylated upon stimulation of gastric acid secretion and that copurifies with the acid-forming H+-K+-ATPase isolated from stimulated tissue. These...

Jakway J, Usinger W, Gold M, Mishell R, DeFranco A
J Immunol . 1986 Oct; 137(7):2225-31. PMID: 3489760
The growth of WEHI-231, a murine immature B lymphoma cell line, was inhibited by anti-IgM antibodies. The inhibition of proliferation, as measured by [3H]thymidine incorporation, occurred between 16 and 28...

Splitter G, Everlith K, Usinger W
Vet Immunol Immunopathol . 1981 Jun; 2(3):215-32. PMID: 6211822
The bovine mixed leukocyte culture (MLC) system offers potential benefit for the study of genetic and immunologic mechanisms in this species. Selected parameters of the bovine MLC have been investigated...

Smith W, Usinger W, Splitter G
Immunology . 1981 May; 43(1):91-100. PMID: 6454650
Bovine Concanavalin A-induced suppressor cells were generated from lymphocytes which were non-adherent to anti-immunoglobulin coated dishes and cells possessing receptors for peanut agglutinin. Bovine lymphocytes, preincubated with 25 microgram/ml of...

Usinger W, Splitter G
J Immunol Methods . 1981 Jan; 45(3):209-19. PMID: 7026687
E rosette formation is a commonly used technique to identify T lymphocytes in many species; however, treatment of bovine E rosettes with rhodamine-conjugated F(ab')2 anti-immunoglobulin resulted in 10% (range 3-18%)...

Immunogenetics . 1981 Jan; 14(5):423-8. PMID: 6460692
Detection of linkage between genetic loci in cattle has been hampered by the lack of large full -sib families. A unique source of full-sib families is now available from embryo...
