The Role of microRNAs in the Pathogenesis of Herpesvirus Infection

Viruses, 2016
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNAs important in gene regulation. They are able to regulate mRNA translation through base-pair complementarity.

African Swine Fever in Cameroon: A Review

Pathogens, 2021
African swine fever (ASF) is a hemorrhagic contagious porcine disease caused by the African swine fever virus. The disease poses enormous problems to the pork industry with pig mortality ranging from 30% to 100%, depending on the virulence of the virus ...

The Allometry of Host-Pathogen Interactions

PLoS ONE, 2007
Understanding the mechanisms that control rates of disease progression in humans and other species is an important area of research relevant to epidemiology and to translating studies in small laboratory animals to humans. Body size and metabolic rate influence a great number of biological rates and times.

Insights into the host-pathogen interaction: C. albicans manipulation of macrophage pyroptosis [PDF]

, 2018
The innate immune system is the first defense against invasive fungal infections, including those caused by Candida albicans. Although C. albicans can exist as a commensal, it can also cause systemic or mucosal infections, especially when the innate ...

Epidemiological Dynamics of Foot-and-Mouth Disease in the Horn of Africa: The Role of Virus Diversity and Animal Movement

Viruses, 2023
The Horn of Africa is a large area of arid and semi-arid land, holding about 10% of the global and 40% of the entire African livestock population. The region’s livestock production system is mainly extensive and pastoralist.

The Trw Type IV Secretion System of Bartonella Mediates Host-Specific Adhesion to Erythrocytes [PDF]

, 2010
Bacterial pathogens typically infect only a limited range of hosts; however, the genetic mechanisms governing host-specificity are poorly understood.

Environmental Sampling Methods for Detection of Salmonella Infections in Laying Hens: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

Microorganisms, 2023
Salmonellosis is the second most commonly reported foodborne gastrointestinal infection in humans in the European Union (EU). Most outbreaks are caused by Salmonella Enteritidis, present in contaminated food products, particularly in egg and egg products.

Pathogen-host reorganization during Chlamydia invasion revealed by cryo-electron tomography [PDF]

, 2014
Invasion of host cells is a key early event during bacterial infection, but the underlying pathogen-host interactions are yet to be fully visualised in three-dimensional detail.

Temporal and Spatial Patterns and a Space–Time Cluster Analysis of Foot-and-Mouth Disease Outbreaks in Ethiopia from 2010 to 2019

Viruses, 2022
Foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) is an endemic disease in Ethiopia, although space–time cluster and monthly variation studies have never been assessed at national level.
