Material Substrate Physical Properties Control Pseudomonas aeruginosa Biofilm Architecture

Alexandre Louis André Persat, Alice Cont

The biofilm lifestyle is the most widespread survival strategy in the bacterial world. Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilms cause chronic infections and are highly recalcitrant to antimicrobials. The genetic requirements allowing P. aeruginosa to grow into biof ...

Invasive Streptococcal Infection Can Lead to the Generation of Cross-Strain Opsonic Antibodies

Hamed Khakzad

The bacterium Streptococcus pyogenes is a common cause of both mild and severe human diseases resulting in substantial morbidity and mortality each year. No vaccines are available, and our understanding of the antibody response to this human pathogen is st ...

Bacterial matrix metalloproteases and serine proteases contribute to the extra-host inactivation of enteroviruses in lake water

Tamar Kohn, Virginie Bachmann

Enteroviruses are ubiquitous contaminants of surface waters, yet their fate in presence of microbial congeners is poorly understood. In this work, we investigated the inactivation of Echovirus-11 (E11) and Coxsackievirus-A9 (CVA9) by bacteria isolated from ...

Viral diversity is linked to bacterial community composition in alpine stream biofilms

Tom Ian Battin, Hannes Markus Peter, Paraskevi Pramateftaki, Meriem Bekliz

Biofilms play pivotal roles in fluvial ecosystems, yet virtually nothing is known about viruses in these communities. Leveraging an optimized sample-to-sequence pipeline, we studied the spatiotemporal turnover of dsDNA viruses associated with stream biofil ...

Soft-probe-scanning electrochemical microscopy reveals electrochemical surface reactivity of E. coli biofilms

Hubert Girault, Emad Oveisi, Horst Pick, Andreas Stephan Lesch, Sorour Darvishi

Investigating and understanding dynamic biofilm growth mechanisms is challenging, often because state-of-the-art optical characterization tools provide limited information. Micrometric electrochemical imaging of Escherichia coli biofilms using Soft-Probe-S ...

Employing bacterial mutations for the elucidation of photo-Fenton disinfection: Focus on the intracellular and extracellular inactivation mechanisms induced by UVA and H2O2

César Pulgarin, Stefanos Giannakis, Ling Feng, Da Wang

The bacterial inactivation mechanisms by solar light and the photo-Fenton process is still a matter of debate. In this study, we bring evidence towards the elucidation of the mechanisms that govern photo-Fenton disinfection at near-neutral pH. With the use ...

Gut microbial transformation of the dietary mutagen MeIQx may reduce exposure levels without altering intestinal transport

Julita Maria Stadnicka-Michalak, Jianbo Zhang

The mutagen and probable human carcinogen 2-amino-3,8-dimethylimidazo[4,5-f]quinoxaline (MeIQx) is metabolized in the colon to 9-hydroxyl-2,7-dimethyl-7,9,10,11-tetrahydropyrimido[2',1':2,3]imidazo[4,5-f]quinoxaline (MeIQx-M1) by conjugation with microbial ...

Type I Interferon Signaling Prevents IL-1 beta-Driven Lethal Systemic Hyperinflammation during Invasive Bacterial Infection of Soft Tissue

Alessandra Piersigilli

Type I interferons (IFN-Is) are fundamental for antiviral immunity, but their role in bacterial infections is contradictory and incompletely described. Streptococcus pyogenes activates IFN-I production in innate immune cells, and IFN-I receptor 1 (Ifnar1)- ...

A microfluidic cell-trapping device for single-cell tracking of host-microbe interactions

John McKinney, Jean-Baptiste Bureau, Matthieu Jean-Hubert Delincé, Thierry Soldati

The impact of cellular individuality on host-microbe interactions is increasingly appreciated but studying the temporal dynamics of single-cell behavior in this context remains technically challenging. Here we present a microfluidic platform, InfectChip, t ...

Limits and patterns of cytomegalovirus genomic diversity in humans

Jeffrey David Jensen, Cornelia Pokalyuk

Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) exhibits surprisingly high genomic diversity during natural infection although little is known about the limits or patterns of HCMV diversity among humans. To address this deficiency, we analyzed genomic diversity among congeni ...
