Carbon Metabolism of Intracellular Parasitic Protists

Annual Review of Microbiology
Apicomplexan and trypanosomatid parasites cause important human diseases, including malaria, toxoplasmosis, Chagas disease, and human leishmaniasis. The mammalian-infective stages of these parasites colonize nutrient-rich, intracellular niches in a range of different host cells. These niches include specialized vacuoles (

Rab11A-controlled assembly of the inner membrane complex is required for completion of apicomplexan cytokinesis [PDF]

, 2009
The final step during cell division is the separation of daughter cells, a process that requires the coordinated delivery and assembly of new membrane to the cleavage furrow.

Targeting Amastigote and Trypomastigote Phases: Multi‐Epitope Vaccine Strategy Against Trypanosoma cruzi

Biotechnology and Applied Biochemistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Effective vaccines against Trypanosoma cruzi, the causative agent of Chagas disease, are urgently needed. Here, we report the design and in silico validation of a novel multiepitope vaccine construct targeting the key surface proteins ASP‐2 and gp82. Using a comprehensive immunoinformatics pipeline, we identified and selected 38 potent T‐cell (

Slc11a1 limits intracellular growth of Salmonella enterica sv. Typhimurium by promoting macrophage immune effector functions and impairing bacterial iron acquisition

, 2009
The natural resistance-associated macrophage protein 1, Slc11a1, is a phagolysosomal transporter for protons and divalent ions including iron that confers host protection against diverse intracellular pathogens including Salmonella.

Locally up-regulated lymphotoxin a, not systemic tumor necrosis factor a, is the principle mediator of murine cerebral malaria [PDF]

, 2002
Cerebral malaria (CM) causes death in children and nonimmune adults. TNF-{alpha} has been thought to play a key role in the development of CM. In contrast, the role of the related cyto-kine lymphotoxin {alpha} (LT{alpha}) in CM has been overlooked.

New opportunities for bioscaffold‐enabled spinal cord injury repair

BMEMat, EarlyView.
Schematic illustration of bioscaffolds for spinal cord injury repair. We summarize the effects of bioscaffold properties on SCI repair, highlight different types of bioscaffolds, various fabrication strategies, and in vivo transformations for the clinical development of SCI‐repairing bioscaffolds.

Constitutive IL-2 mRNA expression in lymphocytes, infected with the intracellular parasite Theileria parva.

, 1992
Theileria parva-infected lymphoblastoid cell lines of T or B cell origin were examined for IL-2 mRNA expression. T. parva-infected T cell lines could be of the CD4-CD8-, CD4+CD8-, CD4-CD8+, or CD4+CD8+ phenotype and express alpha beta or gamma delta TCR.

Bioenergetics of the obligate intracellular parasite Rickettsia prowazekii

, 1998
Mitochondria are thought to be derived from an ancestor of the α-proteobacteria and more specifically from the Rickettsiaceae. The bioenergetic repertoire of the obligate intracellular parasite Rickettsia prowazekii is consistent with its postulated role
