Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
Immunoglobulin A (IgA) is involved in the maintenance of gut homeostasis. Although the oral administration of bifidobacteria increases the amount of fecal IgA, the effects of bifidobacteria on intestinal immunity remain unclear. We found and characterized membrane vesicles (MVs) derived from Bifidobacterium longum subsp. infantis toward host immune cells. Bifidobacterium infantis MVs consisted of a cytoplasmic membrane, and extracellular solute-binding protein (ESBP) was specifically detected. In the presence of B. infantis MVs or recombinant ESBP, RAW264 cells produced the pro-inflammatory cytokine IL-6. IgA was produced by Peyer's patches cells following the addition of B. infantis MVs. Therefore, ESBP of B. infantis MVs is involved in the production of IgA by acquired immune cells via the production of IL-6 by innate immune cells.
