Apicomplexan parasite adhesins: novel strategies for targeting host cell carbohydrates
Apicomplexan parasites such as Plasmodium spp (malaria) and Toxoplasma gondii (toxoplasmosis) are significant global pathogens of humans and animals Unlike many intracellular bacterial and viral pathogens that rely on host cell uptake machinery to gain ...

Novel and emerging antimicrobial strategies in the management of oral infections
Abstract Background Antibiotics marked a pivotal turning point in human civilization, enhancing social interactions and extending human life expectancy. In addition to their success in treating systemic infectious diseases, they have significantly improved periodontal treatment outcomes as an adjunct therapy.

Adhesins in Human Fungal Pathogens: Glue with Plenty of Stick
Understanding the pathogenesis of an infectious disease is critical for developing new methods to prevent infection and diagnose or cure disease. Adherence of microorganisms to host tissue is a prerequisite for tissue invasion and infection.

ABSTRACT Outbreaks of vibriosis caused by Vibrio anguillarum are a persistent constraint on rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) aquaculture. However, information on the population structure of field strains in Turkey has been lacking. Here, we report the first systematic serotypic, proteomic, and genomic characterization of 23 V.

Influence of adhesins on the interaction of Escherichia coli with human phagocytes
The fitness between bacterial adhesins and target cell receptors, determining bacterial adherence to epithelial cells in urinary tract infections, was shown to influence also the interaction with human polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNL).
