A novel GMMA-based gonococcal vaccine demonstrates functional immune responses in mice by Marco Spinsanti, Elisabetta Monaci, Giacomo Romagnoli, Giada Buffi, Andrea Guido Oreste Manetti, Filippo Carboni, Giovanna Tuscano, Lucia Eleonora Fontana, Sara Tomei, Marta Zambelli, Rossella Cuffaro, Marianna Taccone, Chiara Sammicheli, Claudia Gianfaldoni, Francesca Angiolini, Maria Giuliani, Sara Marchi, Silvia Senesi, Christian Matano, Ivan Pisoni, Nathalie Norais, Maria Rosaria Romano, Silvia Rossi Paccani, Silvana Savino, Alessandro Muzzi, Federico Fontani, Davide Serruto, Michela Brazzoli, Giulia Giordano, Monica Fabbrini, Ugo D’Oro, Oretta Finco, Immaculada Margarit, Isabel Delany, Erika Bartolini

“…NgG induced a robust immune response in mice and outperformed the comparator vaccine 4CMenB in several serological and functional tests. Immunization with GMMA from a FA1090 mutant, where major oligosaccharide epitopes are incomplete or absent, revealed that NgG lipooligosaccharide plays a major role in the breadth of functional responses, with protein component also contributing in some GC strains. …”

Right Hemisphere Remapping of Naming Functions Depends on Lesion Size and Location in Poststroke Aphasia by Laura M. Skipper-Kallal, Elizabeth H. Lacey, Shihui Xing, Peter E. Turkeltaub

“…Furthermore, increased right motor activity related to better naming performance only when left motor cortex was lesioned, suggesting compensatory takeover of speech or language function by the homotopic node. These findings demonstrate that reorganization of language function, and the degree to which reorganization facilitates aphasia recovery, is dependent on the size and site of the lesion.…”
