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

open access: yes, 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.

Brucella effectors NyxA and NyxB target SENP3 to modulate the subcellular localisation of nucleolar proteins

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
The bacterium Brucella abortus is an intracellular pathogen that modulates autophagy in host cells. Here, the authors identify two B. abortus effectors that interact with host protease SENP3, thus promoting cytoplasmic accumulation of nucleolar proteins ...

Neglected Zoonotic Diseases: Advances in the Development of Cell-Penetrating and Antimicrobial Peptides against Leishmaniosis and Chagas Disease

open access: yesPathogens, 2023
In 2020, the WHO established the road map for neglected tropical diseases 2021–2030, which aims to control and eradicate 20 diseases, including leishmaniosis and Chagas disease. In addition, since 2015, the WHO has been developing a Global Action Plan on

No better time to FRET: shedding light on host pathogen interactions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Understanding the spatio-temporal subversion of host cell signaling by bacterial virulence factors is key to combating infectious diseases. Following a recent study by Buntru and co-workers published in BMC Biology, we review how fluorescence (Forster ...

The genome of a pathogenic rhodococcus : cooptive virulence underpinned by key gene acquisitions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
We report the genome of the facultative intracellular parasite Rhodococcus equi, the only animal pathogen within the biotechnologically important actinobacterial genus Rhodococcus. The 5.0-Mb R.

Proteomic Profiling of Burkholderia thailandensis During Host Infection Using Bio-Orthogonal Noncanonical Amino Acid Tagging (BONCAT)

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2018
Burkholderia pseudomallei and B. mallei are the causative agents of melioidosis and glanders, respectively, and are often fatal to humans and animals. Owing to the high fatality rate, potential for spread by aerosolization, and the lack of efficacious ...

An Intracellular Pathogen Response Pathway Promotes Proteostasis in C. elegans. [PDF]

open access: yesCurr Biol, 2017
Maintenance of protein homeostasis, or proteostasis, is crucial for organismal health. Disruption of proteostasis can lead to the accumulation of protein aggregates, which are associated with aging and many human diseases such as Alzheimer's disease [1-3]

Cryptococcal pathogenic mechanisms: a dangerous trip from the environment to the brain

open access: yesMemorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2018
Cryptococcus neoformans is an opportunistic pathogenic yeast that causes serious infections, most commonly of the central nervous system (CNS). C. neoformans is mainly found in the environment and acquired by inhalation.

Comprehensive Single Cell Analyses of the Nutritional Environment of Intracellular Salmonella enterica

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2021
The facultative intracellular pathogen Salmonella enterica Typhimurium (STM) resides in a specific membrane-bound compartment termed the Salmonella-containing vacuole (SCV).

Killing them softly:managing pathogen polymorphism and virulence in spatially variable environments [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Understanding why pathogen populations are genetically variable is vital because genetic variation fuels evolution, which often hampers disease control efforts.
