Isolation, cultivation, and in vitro susceptibility testing of Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato: A review [PDF]

Archives of Biological Sciences, 2013
Lyme borreliosis is the most common vector-borne disease in the northern hemisphere. The agents of Lyme borreliosis are borrelia, bacteria of the family Spirochaetaceae, which are grouped in Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato species complex.

Improved culture of fastidious Gemmata spp. bacteria using marine sponge skeletons [PDF]

Scientific Reports, 2019
AbstractGemmata are Planctomycetes bacteria recalcitrant to traditional cultivation in the clinical microbiology laboratory and they have been seldom documented in patients. Based on previously known relationships of Planctomycetes with marine sponges, we designed a new culture medium A incorporating marine sponge skeleton of Spongia sp.

Polarization‐resolved femtosecond Vis/IR spectroscopy tailored for resolving weak signals in biological samples using minimal sample volume

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Unique biological samples, such as site‐specific mutant proteins, are available only in limited quantities. Here, we present a polarization‐resolved transient infrared spectroscopy setup with referencing to improve signal‐to‐noise tailored towards tracing small signals. We provide an overview of characterizing the excitation conditions for polarization‐

Screening of diverse Psylloidea species in Taiwan reveals the presence of both known and potentially novel “Candidatus Liberibacter” species in multiple psyllid lineages

Microbiology Spectrum
Psyllids (Psylloidea) are host-specific, phloem-feeding insects that are associated with the transmission of destructive plant diseases caused by the bacterial genus “Candidatus Liberibacter”.

Assessment of the adaptability of non-fastidious pathogenic bacteria to the Martian environment. [PDF]

, 2021
Understanding the extent to which non-fastidious pathogenic bacteria can survive in extraterrestrial conditions will help to guarantee the safety of astronauts. Despite stringent decontamination protocols, terrestrial microorganisms were previously found to travel on the bodies of astronauts, on spaceships and equipment.

Time‐restricted feeding prior to Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection reduces tissue CD4+ T cells with limited impact on bacterial clearance

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Time‐restricted feeding (TRF) in mice increased liver fatty acid oxidation and decreased fatty acid biosynthesis. These alterations persisted when TRF was discontinued and the host was infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Pre‐exposure to TRF did not alter tissue (lung and spleen) mycobacterial burden but significantly reduced CD3+ T cells in lungs

From energy provision to protein synthesis: Tunnelling nanotubes as mediators of intercellular metabolic cooperation in cancer

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The cytoskeleton‐mediated transport of mitochondria via tunnelling nanotubes restores respiration, increases ATP production, rescues cells from apoptosis, activates the AKT/mTOR signalling pathway, promotes cell migration and invasiveness, contributes to cancer progression and treatment resistance.

Comparison of Potato and Asian Citrus Psyllid Adult and Nymph Transcriptomes Identified Vector Transcripts with Potential Involvement in Circulative, Propagative Liberibacter Transmission

Pathogens, 2014
The potato psyllid (PoP) Bactericera cockerelli (Sulc) and Asian citrus psyllid (ACP) Diaphorina citri Kuwayama are the insect vectors of the fastidious plant pathogen, Candidatus Liberibacter solanacearum (CLso) and Ca. L. asiaticus (CLas), respectively.

Importin 7 mediates the nuclear import of HIV‐1 integrase via a specific interacting interface

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
HIV‐1 integrase enables viral DNA integration into the host genome. By binding to the core domain of the host protein Importin 7 via its C‐terminal domain, the integrase is transported across the nuclear membrane into the nucleus, where integration of the viral genome into host DNA takes place. This translocation is a critical step for subsequent viral
