Nitrosative stress defences of the enterohepatic pathogenic bacterium Helicobacter pullorum [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Helicobacter pullorum is an avian bacterium that causes gastroenteritis, intestinal bowel and hepatobiliary diseases in humans. Although H. pullorum has been shown to activate the mammalian innate immunity with release of nitric oxide (NO), the proteins ...

Francisella tularensisvaccines [PDF]

open access: yesFEMS Immunology & Medical Microbiology, 2007
Francisella tularensis is the causative agent of tularaemia, a disease which occurs naturally in some countries in the northern hemisphere. Recently, there has been a high level of interest in devising vaccines against the bacterium because of the potential for it to be used as a bioterrorism agent.

Balanced Expression of the Diiron Oxygenase BioE Is Essential for Biotin Homeostasis in Elizabethkingia meningoseptica

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 10, 18 February 2026.
BioE is a new diiron oxygenase that catalyzes the conversion of long‐chain acyl groups into pimeloyl thioester, initiating biotin synthesis. The overexpression of EmBioE disrupts lipid metabolic homeostasis, requiring repressor BioL to maintain a balance between long‐chain fatty acids and biotin synthesis.

A short peptide derived from late embryogenesis abundant proteins enhances acid tolerance in Escherichia coli via modulation of two‐component regulatory systems

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, Volume 293, Issue 3, Page 781-805, February 2026.
Expression of the LEA‐K peptide in E. coli BL21 (DE3) improved bacterial viability under acidic stress (pH4), suggesting a protective function. RNA‐sequencing of LEA‐K‐expressing vs. non‐expressing cells revealed 283 differentially expressed genes (DEGs). In silico docking linked LEA‐K to two‐component systems (TCS) proteins (Rcs, BtsS/R, and EnvZ/OmpR)

Molecular Screening of Black Flies (Diptera: Simuliidae) for Vector‐Borne Zoonotic Pathogens, South Moravia, Czech Republic

open access: yesZoonoses and Public Health, Volume 73, Issue 1, Page 95-106, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Black flies (Simuliidae) are globally distributed blood‐feeding arthropods and vectors of viral, bacterial, and parasitic pathogens to many animal species, including humans. We investigated the occurrence of selected vector‐borne pathogens in black flies in South Moravia, Czech Republic, and evaluated their possible role in the ...

Exploiting Lactic Acid Bacteria for Regulating Autophagy to Improve Health in Foods and Supplements: A Recent Update

open access: yesFood Frontiers, Volume 7, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) are frequently used as health supplements. They enhance digestion, regulate immunity, improve gut microbiota, and prevent and manage diseases. Autophagy has a crucial role in the prevention and treatment of tumors, cardiovascular diseases, and pathogenic infections.
