Molecular Microbiology, EarlyView.The HWE‐family histidine kinase PhyK regulates the cell envelope structure of the intracellular pathogen Brucella ovis and affects how the host immune system responds to this bacterium. Deletion of phyK alters bacterial survival in the face of detergent stress and reduces immune activation in infected macrophages.

The glutaminase-dependent acid resistance system. Qualitative and quantitative assays and analysis of its distribution in enteric bacteria [PDF]
, 2018 Neutralophilic bacteria have developed several strategies to overcome the deleterious effects of acid stress. In particular, the amino acid-dependent systems are widespread, with their activities overlapping, covering a rather large pH range, from 6 to

A century of assessment: A systematic review of biothreat risk assessments
Risk Analysis, EarlyView.Abstract Throughout the past century, assessments of the risks and benefits posed by high‐consequence biological agents have guided US decision‐making on weapons research, countermeasure development, and security policy. However, the dispersed nature of these biothreat risk assessments has presented various difficulties, such as duplicative effort ...

New Scenarios for Brucella suis and Brucella melitensis
Current Clinical Microbiology Reports, 2017 We pretend to highlight the most important advances reached in the last few years in the biology of Brucella suis and Brucella melitensis and focus attention on new tools for the comprehension, prevention and control of these zoonotic agents. Important progress lately done in the field of pathogenesis is presented here. This involves current studies on

The Role of Foxes in Transmitting Zoonotic Bacteria to Humans: A Scoping Review
Zoonoses and Public Health, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Zoonotic diseases inflict substantial burdens on human and animal populations worldwide, and many of these infections are bacterial. An Australian study investigating environmental risk factors for Buruli ulcer in humans detected the causative agent, Mycobacterium ulcerans, in the faeces of wild foxes, a novel finding that suggests foxes may ...

American Journal of Hematology, Volume 100, Issue 8, Page 1323-1333, August 2025.ABSTRACT The iron regulatory hormone hepcidin contributes to the pathogenesis of anemia of inflammation (AI) by inhibiting the iron exporter ferroportin in target cells, causing hypoferremia. Under acute inflammation, hepcidin induction requires hemojuvelin (Hjv), a bone morphogenetic protein co‐receptor, while Fpn mRNA is also suppressed in a hepcidin‐
