Mechanism ofcyclic beta-glucan export by ABC transporter Cgt of Brucella

Henning Paul-Julius Stahlberg, Dongchun Ni, Na Wu

Polysaccharides play critical roles in bacteria, including the formation of protective capsules and biofilms and establishing specific host cell interactions. Their transport across membranes is often mediated by ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters, wh ...

Correction of Human Forehead Temperature Variations Measured by Non-Contact Infrared Thermometer

Adrian Shajkofci

Elevated body temperature (fever) can be a common symptom of a medical condition, such as a viral or bacterial infection, including SARS-CoV-2 or influenza. Non-contact infrared thermometers are able to measure forehead temperature in a timely manner and w ...

Population Structure, Molecular Epidemiology, and beta-Lactamase Diversity among Stenotrophomonas maltophilia Isolates in the United States

Luciano Andres Abriata

Stenotrophomonas maltophilia is a Gram-negative, nonfermenting, environmental bacillus that is an important cause of nosocomial infections, primarily associated with the respiratory tract in the immunocompromised population. Aiming to understand the popula ...

3D correlative electron microscopy reveals continuity of Brucella-containing vacuoles with the endoplasmic reticulum

Henning Paul-Julius Stahlberg, Shyan Huey Low

Entry of the facultative intracellular pathogen Brucella into host cells results in the formation of endosomal Brucella-containing vacuoles (eBCVs) that initially traffic along the endocytic pathway. eBCV acidification triggers the expression of a type IV ...

Waddlia chondrophila induces systemic infection, organ pathology, and elicits Th1-associated humoral immunity in a murine model of genital infection

Alessandra Piersigilli, Joël Gyger, David Baud

Waddlia chondrophila is a known bovine abortigenic Ch/amydia-related bacterium that has been associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes in human. However, there is a lack of knowledge regarding how W chondrophila infection spreads, its ability to elicit an ...

Brucella abortus transits through the autophagic pathway and replicates in the endoplasmic reticulum of nonprofessional phagocytes

Françoise Gisou van der Goot Grunberg

Brucella abortus is an intracellular pathogen that replicates within a membrane-bounded compartment. In this study, we have examined the intracellular pathway of the virulent B. abortus strain 2308 (S2308) and the attenuated strain 19 (S19) in HeLa cells. ...

Protection against lethal Escherichia coli bacteremia in baboons (Papio anubis) by pretreatment with a 55-kDa TNF receptor (CD120a)-Ig fusion protein, Ro 45-2081

Florian Maria Wurm

Fusion proteins of the human 55-kDa TNF receptor extracellular domain with hinge and C2/C3 constant domains of human IgG1 or IgG3 heavy chains were tested in a primate sepsis model. Twenty-four baboons received 4.6, or 0.2 mg/kg of TNFR5-G1,3, or placebo, ...
