Contribution of Infectious Agents to the Development of Celiac Disease

Microorganisms, 2021
The ingestion of wheat gliadin (alcohol-soluble proteins, an integral part of wheat gluten) and related proteins induce, in genetically predisposed individuals, celiac disease (CD), which is characterized by immune-mediated impairment of the small ...

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

, 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

Specific Seroreactivity Of Crohn\u27S Disease Patients Against P35 And P36 Antigens Of M. Avium Subsp. Paratuberculosis [PDF]

, 2000
Crohn\u27s disease (CD) is a chronic inflammatory bowel disease that is similar to Johne\u27s disease in ruminants. Recent data have strengthened the association of M. avium subsp. paratuberculosis (M. paratuberculosis) with CD.

Bacteria‐Responsive Nanostructured Drug Delivery Systems for Targeted Antimicrobial Therapy

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Bacteria‐responsive nanocarriers are designed to release antimicrobials only in the presence of infection‐specific cues. This selective activation ensures drug release precisely at the site of infection, avoiding premature or indiscriminate release, and enhancing efficacy.

Limited antigenic diversity of Plasmodium falciparumapical membrane antigen 1 supports the development of effective multi-allele vaccines [PDF]

, 2014
Background: Polymorphism in antigens is a common mechanism for immune evasion used by many important pathogens, and presents major challenges in vaccine development. In malaria, many key immune targets and vaccine candidates show substantial polymorphism.

A blood-based transcriptomic signature stratifies severe Crohn’s disease and defines potentially targetable therapeutic pathways

Frontiers in Gastroenterology, 2023
IntroductionDespite advances in medical therapy, many patients with Crohn’s disease (CD) ultimately require surgery for disease management. Identifying the underlying molecular pathways for subgroup stratification is critical to the improvement of ...

Kelvin Probe Force Microscopy in Bionanotechnology: Current Advances and Future Perspectives

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Kelvin probe force microscopy (KPFM) enables the nanoscale mapping of electrostatic surface potentials. While widely applied in materials science, its use in biological systems remains emerging. This review presents recent advances in KPFM applied to biological samples and provides a critical perspective on current limitations and future directions for
