EMT has been recognised over the past two decades as an essential, highly regulated and often-employed mechanism in normal embryological development, used as a prelude to migration of epithelial-derived cells in morphogenesis. Suggestions that EMT may also play an important role in carcinoma metastasis have recently matured, with high-level reports documenting the progression-like consequences of EMT in various cancer systems. The production of fibroblastoid cells from epithelial precursors in fibrotic diseases has been recognised as bearing the hallmarks of EMT . ... [Information of the supplier]
The goal of the meeting is to bring together researchers interested in various aspects of cell death, inflammation and immunity in animals and plants, with a particular focus on the mechanisms that link cell death with the immune response. The meeting is organized in the context of the Collaborative Research Center 670 (CRC670) “Cell-autonomous Immunity” (speaker: Martin Krönke). CRC670 is funded by the German Research Foundation (DFG) and is strongly supported by a community of immunologists in Cologne and Bonn aiming at understanding cell-autonomous immune response in plant and animal. ...

On behalf of the board of the German Society for Immunology (DGfI), we are delighted to invite you to participate in our 47th Annual Meeting to be held in Erlangen from 12-15 September 2017. The Huguenot town of Erlangen, a modern baroque city, where ancient charm meets innovative ideas, is in the heart of the Nürnberg Metropolitan Region. Erlangen hosts one of the oldest and most charming outdoor beer festivals and is home to the Friedrich-Alexander University of Erlangen-Nürnberg and high-tech ventures such as Siemens Healthineers, the Fraunhofer Institute for Integrated Circuits (known for its invention of the MP3), and the Max Planck Institute for the Science of Light. Erlangen with a long tradition in basic and clinical immunology has developed under former DGfI presidents, Joachim Kalden and Martin Röllinghoff, into an internationally recognized research center. More than 50 groups in 13 independent clinics and departments at the University Hospital Erlangen and the Friedrich-Alexander University Erlangen-Nürnberg are part of the interdisciplinary research center „Medical Immunology Campus Erlangen “(MICE). The extramural funding from the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) ranks number 2 in Germany and includes 5 collaborative research groups focusing on B Cells (TRR 130), resolution of inflammation” (SFB 1181), microbial effectors (SFB 796), inflammatory bowel diseases (KFO 257), and osteoimmunology (SPP 1468). Additionally, there are 3 doctoral training groups with research topics in adaptive immune responses (GRK1660), B cells (GRK-TRR130), and inflammation (GRK-SFB 1181). The 47th Annual Meeting will take place at the Heinrich-Lades-Halle located in the center of Erlangen just a few minutes from the main railway station, hotels, and restaurants. The highlight of the 2017 meeting will be the celebration of the 50th birthday of the DGfI. To salute this special occasion, the organizing committee will compile an exciting scientific program highlighting current research topics in basic and translational immunology in plenary sessions, main symposia, and workshops. A poster exhibition “50 years DGfI-50 discoveries” and a Festschrift will commemorate the history of our society and the highlights of Immunology in Germany. We will finish with an unforgettable birthday party on the last evening of the congress. We cordially invite everyone to submit abstracts in the spring of 2017 and to join us in Erlangen for this exciting event. All Erlanger immunologists are looking forward to welcoming you to our city with the charm of a small baroque town. We hope to make this special meeting a memorable event! ...

On behalf of the German Society of Immunology (DGfI) and the Austrian Society for Allergology & Immunology (ÖGAI), we are pleased to invite you to our joint annual meeting in Hannover, from September 7th to 10th 2022 at Hannover Medical School. With this upcoming joint meeting, we would like to continue the series of joint meetings in 1995 and 2008 Vienna. ... [Information of the supplier, modified]
Ziel ist die Schaffung eines umfassenden computerunterstützten Entscheidungshilfesystems für die Pharmakotherapie und klinische Toxikologie. Zur Zeit umfasst CliniPharm/CliniTox folgende Teile: 1) Tierarzneimittelkompendium der Schweiz; 2) Fachinformationen zu therapeutischen Substanzen; 3) CliniTox, ein computergestütztes Entscheidungshilfesystem für das Management von Vergiftungsfällen bei Tieren (inkl. Giftpflanzendatenbank, welche neben veterinärmedizinisch relevanten Daten auch botanische Informationen sowie Bilder der einzelnen Pflanzen enthält. Aufgrund der Vielsprachigkeit der Schweiz können die Pflanzen nicht nur nach botanischen Merkmalen, sondern auch nach den wissenschaftlichen Namen sowie den gebräuchlichen deutschen, französischen, italienischen und englischen Namen gesucht werden.) ...

The Ecological Database of the World's Insect Pathogens (EDWIP) offers information on fungi, viruses, protozoa, mollicutes, nematodes, and bacteria¹ that are infectious in insects, mites, and related arthropods. Data in EDWIP include associations (or lack thereof) between pathogenic organisms and insect, mite, and other arthropod hosts. EDWIP also includes information on where associations have been observed, stages and tissues of hosts infected, and habitats and host ranges of the arthropod hosts. Association and nonassociation data in EDWIP are supported by bibliographic citations. All areas of the database are searchable. (....) ¹Because of the tremendous volume of information available on the bacterial pathogen Bacillus thuringiensis, we have excluded this species from EDWIP. For informaton on Bt, see the Canadian Forest Service's Bt Toxin Specificity Database. ... [Information of the supplier]
Die ECOTOX-Datenbank der U.S. Environmental Protection Agency enthält Daten zur singulären chemischen Toxizität bei Tieren und Pflanzen aus aquatischen und terrestrischen Lebensräumen; die Informationen entstammen der Fachliteratur. In ECOTOX sind drei Datenbanken integriert, die ursprünglich unabhängig voneinander entwickelt worden waren (AQUIRE, PHYTOTOX, and TERRETOX). ... [Redaktion vifabio]
IMGT is a high-quality integrated knowledge resource specialized in the immunoglobulins (IG), T cell receptors (TR), major histocompatibility complex (MHC), immunoglobulin superfamily and related proteins of the immune system (RPI) of human and other vertebrate species.

TOXLINE besteht aus zwei Komponenten: TOXLINE Special und TOXLINE Core. TOXLINE Special wird durch Zusammenführen von Datensätzen aus mehreren Datenbanken erstellt; bei manchen werden alle, bei anderen ausgewählte Datensätze integriert; manche der Datenbanken haben archivarischen Charakter (d. h. sie werden nicht mehr aktualisiert). Daneben sind Datenbanken enthalten, die in periodischen Abständen aktualisiert werden. Die meisten TOXLINE-Datensätze umfassen Abstracts; das gilt jedoch nicht für alle. Die meisten Teildatenbestände sind durch Schlagwörter erschlossen, die Vokabulare sind aber nicht überall einheitlich. TOXLINE Core ist ein Auszug aus MEDLINE mit Zeitschriftenliteratur aus den Themengebieten Toxikologie und Umweltschutz; es kann auch über das PubMed-Interface durchsucht werden. TOXLINE Core ist ungefähr äquivalent zum früheren Teildatenbestand TOXBIB in TOXLINE, welcher ebenso einen MEDLINE-Teilbestand repräsentierte. ... [Information des Anbieters, übersetzt und verändert]
