Bacterial Extracellular DNA Promotes β-Amyloid Aggregation

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2021
Alzheimer’s disease is associated with prion-like aggregation of the amyloid β (Aβ) peptide and the subsequent accumulation of misfolded neurotoxic aggregates in the brain.

Superstatistical model of bacterial DNA architecture [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
AbstractUnderstanding the physical principles that govern the complex DNA structural organization as well as its mechanical and thermodynamical properties is essential for the advancement in both life sciences and genetic engineering. Recently we have discovered that the complex DNA organization is explicitly reflected in the arrangement of nucleotides

Comparison of Bacterial DNA Profiles in Mid-Trimester Amniotic Fluid Samples From Preterm and Term Deliveries

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Infection and inflammation are well recognized causes of spontaneous preterm delivery (PTD) (<37 gestational weeks) and adverse infant outcomes. To date, there has been very little investigation into bacterial communities in amniotic fluid using next ...

The teneurin C-terminal domain possesses nuclease activity and is apoptogenic. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Teneurins are type 2 transmembrane proteins expressed by developing neurons during periods of synaptogenesis and apoptosis. Neurons expressing teneurin-1 synapse with other teneurin-1-expressing neurons, and neurons expressing teneurin-2 synapse with ...

Bacterial DNA promotes Tau aggregation [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2019
AbstractA hallmark feature of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and other tauopathies is the misfolding, aggregation and cerebral accumulation of tau deposits. Compelling evidence indicates that misfolded tau aggregates are neurotoxic, producing synaptic loss and neuronal damage.

Transferrin-polycation conjugates as carriers for DNA uptake into cells. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1990
We have developed a high-efficiency nucleic acid delivery system that uses receptor-mediated endocytosis to carry DNA macromolecules into cells. We accomplished this by conjugating the iron-transport protein transferrin to polycations that bind nucleic ...

Detection of airborne Campylobacter with three bioaerosol samplers for alarming bacteria transmission in broilers. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
In an airborne transmission experiment, Campylobacter in the air was sampled by three types of bioaerosol samplers (all-glass impinger AGI-30, Andersen six-stage impactor, and OMNI-3000) in four broiler rooms.
