In vitro anti-reovirus activity of kuraridin isolated from Sophora flavescens against viral replication and hemagglutination

Journal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2015
In this study, we evaluated the anti-reovirus activity of kuraridin isolated from the roots of Sophora flavescens. In particular, we focused on whether this property is attributable to direct inhibition of reovirus attachment and/or inhibition of viral ...

c-di-GMP modulates type IV MSHA pilus retraction and surface attachment in Vibrio cholerae. [PDF]

, 2020
Biofilm formation by Vibrio cholerae facilitates environmental persistence, and hyperinfectivity within the host. Biofilm formation is regulated by 3',5'-cyclic diguanylate (c-di-GMP) and requires production of the type IV mannose-sensitive hemagglutinin

Improved Hemagglutination Inhibition Assay for Mammary Tumor Virus Antigen [PDF]

Applied Microbiology, 1973
It is our experience that the use of sheep red blood cells pretreated with formaldehyde and pyruvaldehyde before sensitizing with viral antigen yields results that are comparable to that obtained by using the tannic acid method. The double aldehyde method provides the added advantage of being useful for assaying the viral antigen content in substances ...

Evaluation of Immunogenicity of Seasonal Influenza Split HA Vaccines Involved With Changes of Vaccine Strains Using Mouse and Human Sera

Microbiology and Immunology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Seasonal influenza is prevalent every winter, and influenza vaccines are used to safeguard public health. As the influenza vaccines are produced in embryonated hen eggs using vaccine viruses recommended by the World Health Organization each year based on the epidemic situation, it is important, from the perspective of public health, to ...

OmpA_C‐Like Domain of PorE Is Essential for PorE Function in the Type IX Secretion System (T9SS) of Porphyromonas gingivalis and Some T9SS Cargo Proteins Are Secreted in a PorE‐Independent Manner

Microbiology and Immunology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The periodontal pathogen Porphyromonas gingivalis secretes gingipains, highly hydrolytic proteases, to the cell surface or external environment via a type IX secretion system (T9SS). PorE is one of the T9SS component proteins essential for gingipain secretion. It consists of four domains: TPR, WD40, CRD, and OmpA_C‐like.
