Do salmonella transiently reside in luminal neutrophils in the inflamed gut?
In conclusion, live neutrophils recruited during acute S. Tm colitis engulf pathogens in the gut lumen and may thus actively engage in shaping the environment of pathogens and commensals in the inflamed gut.
At a distinct molar excess, sOB-R may suppress leptin action through inhibition of specific leptin binding to membrane-bound receptors in vitro. In vivo, sOB-R may further function to delay leptin clearance and increase the available leptin pool in the circulation. In the case of a massive excess of sOB-R, is it likely to be inhibitory to leptin interaction with the tissue membrane-bound OB-R.
