Tissue Resident Memory Cells: Friend or Foe?

open access: yesImmunology, EarlyView.
Tissue‐resident memory T cells (TRM cells) are specialised immune cells in barrier tissues like the lungs, skin and gut, providing rapid host defence and tumour surveillance. Their retention and differentiation are regulated by molecules such as CD69, CD103 and TGF‐β. Dysregulation of TRM cells can lead to chronic activation, driving conditions such as

The intranasal infection of mice with Bordetella pertussis [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Hygiene, 1961
Bordetella pertussis instified by the intranasal route into the lungs of mice multiply without difficulty even from small inocula, although B. pertussis is not a natural pathogen for mice and mouse to mouse infection could not be demonstrated. When the initial dose was large the bacilli multiplied until the number in the lungs reached a critical level ...

Evaluation of Amplification Targets for the Specific Detection of Bordetella pertussis Using Real-Time Polymerase Chain Reaction

open access: yesCanadian Journal of Infectious Diseases and Medical Microbiology, 2014
BACKGROUND: Bordetella pertussis infections continue to be a major public health challenge in Canada. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assays to detect B pertussis are typically based on the multicopy insertion sequence IS481, which offers

Topological, Functional, and Phylogenetic Analysis of the Cell Division Site Selection Protein MinJ of Bacillus subtilis

open access: yesMolecular Microbiology, EarlyView.
MinJ is a nine‐pass transmembrane protein with a cytoplasmic PDZ domain. The PDZ domain, while required for division, is dispensable for localization, and deletion of the transmembrane segments 6 and 7 results in a hyper‐minicell phenotype. ABSTRACT The Min system disassembles FtsZ‐rings after septation in Bacillus subtilis and is localized to the ...

Opportunistic Pulmonary Bordetella hinzii Infection after Avian Exposure

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2015
We report 2 cases of pulmonary Bordetella hinzii infection in immunodeficient patients. One of these rare cases demonstrated the potential transmission of the bacteria from an avian reservoir through occupational exposure and its persistence in humans ...
