Rare forms of cerebral amyloid angiopathy: pathogenesis, biological and clinical features of CAA-ri and iCAA

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2023
Thanks to a more widespread knowledge of the disease, and improved diagnostic techniques, the clinical spectrum of cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) is now broad. Sporadic CAA, hereditary CAA, CAA-related inflammation (CAA-ri) and iatrogenic CAA (iCAA) create a clinical and radiological continuum which is intriguing and only partially discovered ...

Inhibition of inflammasome activation by Coxiella burnetii type IV secretion system effector IcaA [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications, 2015
AbstractCoxiella burnetii is a highly infectious bacterium that promotes its own replication in macrophages by inhibiting several host cell responses. Here, we show that C. burnetii inhibits caspase-1 activation in primary mouse macrophages. By using co-infection experiments, we determine that the infection of macrophages with C.

Linezolid decreases Staphylococcus aureus biofilm formation by affecting the IcaA and IcaB proteins

Acta Microbiologica et Immunologica Hungarica, 2022
Abstract Background The ica gene of Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) plays a vital role in its growth and biofilm formation. Among them, IcaA and IcaB are critical proteins for synthesizing extracellular polysaccharides and biofilms in S. aureus. To investigate whether the formation of S.

iCAAS

Proceedings of the 3rd international workshop on Adaptive and dependable mobile ubiquitous systems, 2009
Wireless sensor networks (WSN) are spreading as a common mean for mitigating installation and management cost in environment monitoring applications. The increasing complexity ad heterogeneity of such WSN and the differentiated users needs calls for innovative solutions for managing and accessing produced data.

Identification of bap and icaA genes involved in biofilm formation in coagulase negative staphylococci isolated from feline conjunctiva [PDF]

open access: yesVeterinary Research Communications, 2014
Bap and icaA genes are commonly known to be involved in the biofilm formation. The prevalence of bap and icaA genes and biofilm formation was determined in conjunctival isolates of coagulase negative staphylococci (CNS) collected from cats. The study was conducted on 90 archival CNS isolates collected from feline conjunctiva obtained from clinically ...

Analysis of S. Epidermidis icaA and icaD genes by polymerase chain reaction and slime production: a case control study [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Infectious Diseases, 2013
Abstract Background Staphylococcus epidermidis is a common pathogen in medical device-associated infections and have an ability to form adherent slime. We aimed to study the effects of icaA and icaD genes on the slime formation of Staphylococcus epidermidis associated with catheter-associated infections.

Assessment of real-life creativity: The Inventory of Creative Activities and Achievements (ICAA).

Psychology of Aesthetics, Creativity, and the Arts, 2018
This article introduces the Inventory of Creative Activities and Achievements (ICAA), a broad-based assessment of individual differences in real-life creativity. The ICAA provides independent scales for the frequency of engagement in everyday creative activity and the level of creative achievement across 8 creative domains. A formal test analysis based

Upregulation of icaA, atlE and aap genes by linezolid but not vancomycin in Staphylococcus epidermidis RP62A biofilms

International Journal of Antimicrobial Agents, 2014
Biofilms are complex bacterial structures protected by a self-produced polymer matrix that enables survival in hostile environments. Biofilms are more resistant to antibiotics than their planktonic counterparts and are therefore more difficult to eradicate.
