Staphylococcal enterotoxins: molecular aspects and detection methods
Members of the Staphylococcus genus, especially Staphylococcus aureus, are the most common pathogens found in hospitals and in community-acquired infections. Some of their pathogenicity is associated with enzyme and toxin production.

ABSTRACT Among bacteria that are associated with the development and/or exacerbation of allergic/atopic diseases, several have been described to produce IgE‐binding components. However, only one bacterial protein, Bac s 1, is currently listed in the official database of the World Health Organization/International Union of Immunological Societies (WHO ...

Abstract Background and Purpose Guanylate cyclase‐C (GC‐C) is the receptor for endogenous (uro)guanylin peptides, bacterial toxins and pharmacological analogues. Receptor activation leads to intestinal fluid loss, but also activates an antiproliferative pathway and is a promising target in colorectal cancer therapy.

Immune Consequences of Metabolic Syndrome and Its Treatment: A Cytokine Perspective
Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from individuals with metabolic syndrome (MetS) who were not using glucose‐and/or lipid lowering medication (GLLM) exhibited a broader cytokine production profile after in vitro antigen‐specific stimulation than PBMCs from individuals with MetS using such medications and from healthy donors.

Enterotoxins: Microbial Proteins and Host Cell Dysregulation
The special issue “Enterotoxins: Microbial Proteins and Host Cell Dysregulation” is comprised of research articles and reviews covering a diverse group of toxins that affect the gut and dysregulate host immune response in mechanistically different ways. [

ABSTRACT Aeromonas hydrophila is a major zoonotic bacterial pathogen responsible for haemorrhagic septicemia, substantial economic losses in aquaculture and increasing antimicrobial resistance among field isolates. It is also one of the main bacterial species associated with mortality outbreaks in pirapitinga, Piaractus brachypomus, culture in the ...

Abstract Background Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is a treatment primarily for hematological malignancies. Infections, relapse, and graft versus host disease (GvHD) are some of the most common adverse events following HSCT. We aimed to evaluate whether the lymphocyte function of the stem cell graft was associated with these ...

A total of 415 cheese samples produced with raw or cooked milk collected from local markets were analysed for the presence of coagulase-positive staphylococci. In 85 (20.48%) samples the presence of coagulase positive staphylococci was detected. The ELFA

Microbial Hydrolysates as Amino Acid Source in Cell Culture Media for Cellular Agriculture
ABSTRACT The high cost of cultivation media remains one of the barriers to the commercialization of cultivated meat. Current serum‐free media reduce reliance on fetal bovine serum but only achieve modest cost savings. Especially at larger scales (> 20 m3), pharmaceutical‐grade amino acids and recombinant proteins remain major cost drivers.
