The Emerging Role of Microbial Extracellular Vesicles in Neuroinflammation and Neurodegeneration
Medicine Bulletin, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric disorders are increasingly viewed as systemic conditions shaped by interactions among peripheral immunity, microbiota, and the central nervous system. However, the mechanisms linking microbial activity to neuroinflammation and neurodegeneration remain poorly defined.

Adhesins and host serum factors drive Yop translocation by yersinia into professional phagocytes during animal infection. [PDF]
PLoS Pathogens, 2013 Yersinia delivers Yops into numerous types of cultured cells, but predominantly into professional phagocytes and B cells during animal infection. The basis for this cellular tropism during animal infection is not understood.
