Host Susceptibility to Periodontitis

Journal of Dental Research, 2013
Host susceptibility to periodontal infection is controlled by genetic factors. As a step toward identifying and cloning these factors, we generated an A/J x BALB/cJ F2 mouse resource population. A genome-wide search for Quantitative Trait Loci (QTL) associated with periodontitis was performed.

FUT2, Secretor Status and FUT3 Polymorphisms of Children with Acute Diarrhea Infected with Rotavirus and Norovirus in Brazil

Viruses, 2020
Host susceptibility according to human histo-blood group antigens (HBGAs) is widely known for norovirus infection, but is less described for rotavirus. Due to the variable HBGA polymorphism among populations, we aimed to evaluate the association between ...

Human B19 parvovirus infetion: an example of multiple pathogenic effects determined by differences in host susceptibility

Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 1992
B19 infection offers some general lessons about human viruses and their possible effects on the human host, as follows: (1) Ubiquitous apparently benign viruses may have severe effects on a compromissed host.

The Interactions between Host Glycobiology, Bacterial Microbiota, and Viruses in the Gut

Viruses, 2018
Rotavirus (RV) and norovirus (NoV) are the major etiological agents of viral acute gastroenteritis worldwide. Host genetic factors, the histo-blood group antigens (HBGA), are associated with RV and NoV susceptibility and recent findings additionally ...

Polymorphisms in Processing and Antigen Presentation-Related Genes and Their Association with Host Susceptibility to Influenza A/H1N1 2009 Pandemic in a Mexican Mestizo Population

Viruses, 2020
(1) Background: The influenza A/H1N1 pdm09 virus rapidly spread throughout the world. Despite the inflammatory and virus-degradation pathways described in the pathogenesis of influenza A virus (IAV) infection, little is known about the role of the single

Revisiting Trypanosoma rangeli Transmission Involving Susceptible and Non-Susceptible Hosts

PLOS ONE, 2015
Trypanosoma rangeli infects several triatomine and mammal species in South America. Its transmission is known to occur when a healthy insect feeds on an infected mammal or when an infected insect bites a healthy mammal. In the present study we evaluated the classic way of T.

Host susceptibility to non-tuberculous mycobacterial infections [PDF]

The Lancet Infectious Diseases, 2015
Non-tuberculous mycobacteria cause a broad range of clinical disorders, from cutaneous infections, such as cervical or intrathoracic lymphadenitis in children, to disseminated infections at all ages. Recognition of the underlying immune defect is crucial for rational treatment, preventive care, family screening, and, in some cases, transplantation.

Heterogeneities in infection outcomes across species: sex and tissue differences in virus susceptibility

Peer Community Journal, 2023
Species vary in their susceptibility to pathogens, and this can alter the ability of a pathogen to infect a novel host. However, many factors can generate heterogeneity in infection outcomes, obscuring our ability to understand pathogen emergence.
