Type 1 piliated uropathogenic Escherichia coli hijack the host immune response by binding to CD14

A key attribute of persistent or recurring bacterial infections is the ability of the pathogen to evade the host's immune response. Many Enterobacteriaceae express type 1 pili, a pre-adapted virulence trait, to invade host epithelial cells and establish pe ...

Computationally designed GPCR quaternary structures bias signaling pathway activation

Patrick Daniel Barth, Robert Everett Jefferson

Communication across membranes controls critical cellular processes and is achieved by receptors translating extracellular signals into selective cytoplasmic responses. While receptor tertiary structures can be readily characterized, receptor associations ...

Selective integrin targeting with DNA-based nanomaterials

Eva Eugene Kurisinkal

Targeting cells specific to type and state remains a challenge in developing effective therapies, sensitive diagnostics, also robust and versatile tissue engineering. A promising strategy is to focuses on improving the inherent selectivity of the targeting ...

Engineering synthetic adhesins for biophysical investigation and rewiring of host-microbe interactions

Xavier Jean-Yves Pierrat

Host attachment is often a critical step in the onset of pathogenesis. To attach to host cells, bacteria have evolved a range of adhesins that bind to specific receptors. Some of these adhesins have been thoroughly characterized using biochemical technique ...

Delivery of STING agonists for adjuvanting subunit vaccines

Li Tang, Bing Feng, Simon Bart M. Van Herck

Adjuvant is an essential component in subunit vaccines. Many agonists of pathogen recognition receptors have been developed as potent adjuvants to optimize the immunogenicity and efficacy of vaccines. Recently discovered cyclic GMP-AMP synthase-stimulator ...

Initial Step of Virus Entry: Virion Binding to Cell-Surface Glycans

Laurent Gillet, Christian Sieben

Virus infection is an intricate process that requires the concerted action of both viral and host cell components. Entry of viruses into cells is initiated by interactions between viral proteins and cell-surface receptors. Various cell-surface glycans func ...

Phagocytosis in Drosophila: From molecules and cellular machinery to physiology

Bruno Lemaitre, Claudia Melcarne

Phagocytosis is an evolutionarily conserved mechanism that plays a key role in both host defence and tissue homeostasis in multicellular organisms. A range of surface receptors expressed on different cell types allow discriminating between self and non-sel ...

A ligand-based system for receptor-specific delivery of proteins

Kai Johnsson, Luc Reymond

Gene delivery using vector or viral-based methods is often limited by technical and safety barriers. A promising alternative that circumvents these shortcomings is the direct delivery of proteins into cells. Here we introduce a non-viral, ligand-mediated p ...

Improving Efficacy and Safety of Agonistic Anti-CD40 Antibody Through Extracellular Matrix Affinity

Jeffrey Alan Hubbell, Melody Swartz, Lambert Charles François Potin, Martina Damo, Jun Ishihara, Kazuto Fukunaga

CD40 is an immune costimulatory receptor expressed by antigen-presenting cells. Agonistic anti-CD40 antibodies have demonstrated considerable antitumor effects yet can also elicit serious treatment-related adverse events, such as liver toxicity, including ...

Resistance of echovirus 11 to ClO2 is associated with enhanced host receptor use, altered entry routes and high fitness

Tamar Kohn, Anna Carratala Ripolles, Virginie Bachmann, Jeffrey David Jensen, Qingxia Zhong, Hyunjin Shim

Waterborne viruses can exhibit resistance to common water disinfectants, yet the mechanisms that allow them to tolerate disinfection are poorly understood. Here, we generated echovirus 11 (E11) with resistance to chlorine dioxide (ClO2) by experimental evo ...
