Roles of the Endogenous Lunapark Protein during Flavivirus Replication

open access: yesViruses, 2021
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) of eukaryotic cells is a dynamic organelle, which undergoes continuous remodeling. At the three-way tubular junctions of the ER, the lunapark (LNP) protein acts as a membrane remodeling factor to stabilize these highly ...

The role of caspase-1, caspase-4 and NLRP3 in regulating the host cell response evoked by uropathogenic Escherichia coli

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
The inflammasome-associated proteins caspase-1, caspase-4 and NLRP3 have been emphasised to be essential in the host cell response during urinary tract infection (UTI) by regulating IL-1β release.

Transcriptional alterations in bladder epithelial cells in response to infection with different morphological states of uropathogenic Escherichia coli

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) may undergo a cyclic cascade of morphological alterations that are believed to enhance the potential of UPEC to evade host responses and re-infect host cell.

A detailed molecular network map and model of the NLRP3 inflammasome

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2023
The NLRP3 inflammasome is a key regulator of inflammation that responds to a broad range of stimuli. The exact mechanism of activation has not been determined, but there is a consensus on cellular potassium efflux as a major common denominator.

The Sterile Inflammatory Response [PDF]

open access: yesAnnual Review of Immunology, 2010
The acute inflammatory response is a double-edged sword. On the one hand, it plays a key role in initial host defense, particularly against many infections. On the other hand, its aim is imprecise, and as a consequence, when it is drawn into battle, it can cause collateral damage in tissues.

Inflammatory response and the endothelium [PDF]

open access: yesThrombosis Research, 2004
Antiphospholipid-mediated endothelium perturbation plays a role in antiphospholipid syndrome (APS)-associated vasculopathy. Antiphospholipid antibodies activate endothelium both in vitro and in vivo experimental models by inducing a pro-inflammatory/-coagulant phenotype; the antibodies recognize beta2 glycoprotein I (beta2GPI) on human endothelial ...

Potential Transdiagnostic Lipid Mediators of Inflammatory Activity in Individuals With Serious Mental Illness

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychiatry, 2021
Mental disorders are heterogeneous and psychiatric comorbidities are common. Previous studies have suggested a link between inflammation and mental disorders.

Revealing new tick-borne encephalitis virus foci by screening antibodies in sheep milk

open access: yesParasites & Vectors, 2020
Background Tick distribution in Sweden has increased in recent years, with the prevalence of ticks predicted to spread towards the northern parts of the country, thus increasing the risk of tick-borne zoonoses in new regions. Tick-borne encephalitis (TBE)

Lower activation of caspase-1 by Staphylococcus epidermidis isolated from prosthetic joint infections compared to commensals [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Bone and Joint Infection, 2018
Nosocomial sequence types of Staphylococcus epidermidis dominate in prosthetic joint infections. We examined caspase-1 activation in human neutrophils after incubation with Staphylococcus epidermidis isolated from prosthetic joint infections and normal ...

Activation of NLRP3 by uropathogenic Escherichia coli is associated with IL-1β release and regulation of antimicrobial properties in human neutrophils

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2020
The NLRP3 inflammasome and IL-1β have recently been linked to the severity of uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC)-mediated urinary tract infection (UTI).
