NGS-based phylogeny of diphtheria-related pathogenicity factors in different Corynebacterium spp. implies species-specific virulence transmission

BMC Microbiology, 2019
Diphtheria toxin (DT) is produced by toxigenic strains of the human pathogen Corynebacterium diphtheriae as well as zoonotic C. ulcerans and C. pseudotuberculosis.

Research advancements and evaluation of multifactor‐induced murine models for gastric cancer

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Murine models for gastric cancer. Abstract As one of the most prevalent gastrointestinal malignancies in humans, gastric cancer (GC) is often detected at an advanced stage, resulting in a poor prognosis and ranking it the fifth leading cause of cancer‐related deaths.

Silica Nanoparticles as Multifunctional Platforms for Vaccine Delivery and Immune Modulation in Infectious Diseases

Advanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
Overview of the use of silica nanoparticles in vaccines against pathogens. Different kinds of vaccines against infectious diseases are currently using solid or mesoporous silica nanoparticles in their formulation. Silica microparticles and nanoparticles (SiNPs) have been studied as vehicles for vaccines.

Seroprevalence of diphtheria IgG antibodies among 5–20 years old in diphtheria affected regions during 2018–19: Evidence in support of the revised National Vaccine Policy for diphtheria in India

Clinical Epidemiology and Global Health
Background: Diphtheria continues to be a public health problem in India as it is re-emerging in several regions of the country. In recent times, apart from preschool-aged children, diphtheria outbreaks are seen to affect older children and adults.

The Hsp90 machinery facilitates the transport of diphtheria toxin into human cells

Scientific Reports, 2017
Diphtheria toxin kills human cells because it delivers its enzyme domain DTA into their cytosol where it inhibits protein synthesis. After receptor-mediated uptake of the toxin, DTA translocates from acidic endosomes into the cytosol, which might be ...

Development and Validation of a High‐Throughput Screening Assay for the Legionella ADP‐Ribosyl Transferase SdeA

ChemBioChem, EarlyView.
We show the optimization and application of a fluorogenic assay to monitor Legionella SdeA activity in a High‐Throughput‐Screening campaign. Ubiquitination of proteins is one of the most crucial post‐translational modifications in eukaryotic cells, typically involving conjugation of ubiquitin to a lysine residue in a substrate using a three‐enzyme ...
