Identification of Circulating Bacterial Antigens by In Vivo Microbial Antigen Discovery

open access: yesmBio, 2011
Detection of microbial antigens in clinical samples can lead to rapid diagnosis of an infection and administration of appropriate therapeutics. A major barrier in diagnostics development is determining which of the potentially hundreds or thousands of ...

Outer membrane vesicles: A bacterial-derived vaccination system

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) are non-living spherical nanostructures that derive from the cell envelope of Gram-negative bacteria. OMVs are important in bacterial pathogenesis, cell-to-cell communication, horizontal gene transfer, quorum sensing, and ...

Target identification for prevention and therapy of "Salmonella" infections [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
In this thesis we investigated maintenance requirements of Salmonella during chronic infections, and determined the relevant antigen properties that might facilitate the development of Salmonella vaccines. Overall, we wanted to achieve two goals: a)To

Interferon-gamma-activated macrophages infected with Burkholderia cenocepacia process and present bacterial antigens to T-cells by class I and II major histocompatibility complex molecules

open access: yesEmerging Microbes and Infections, 2020
Burkholderia cenocepacia is an emerging opportunistic pathogen for people with cystic fibrosis and chronic granulomatous disease. Intracellular survival in macrophages within a membrane-bound vacuole (BcCV) that delays acidification and maturation into ...

Bacterial Spore Antigens: a Review [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of General Microbiology, 1962
SUMMARY: Agglutinogens and precipitinogens have been detected in the spores of many species of aerobic and anaerobic spore-formers and these antigens are distinct from those of the vegetative growth phases of the corresponding organisms. Spore antigens are heat resistant and antibody response is elicited by the injection of autoclaved spores into ...
