Molecular motors hijacking by intracellular pathogens [PDF]

open access: yesCellular Microbiology, 2006
Cargoes are transported intracellularly along cytoskeletal tracks composed of actin or tubulin. Their movement involves the action of molecular motor proteins that generate directed movement along microtubules or actin filaments. The three classes of molecular motors--kinesins, dyneins and myosins--are involved in a multiplicity of biological movements

Purification and proteomics of pathogen-modified vacuoles and membranes

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2015
Certain pathogenic bacteria adopt an intracellular lifestyle and proliferate in eukaryotic host cells. The intracellular niche protects the bacteria from cellular and humoral components of the mammalian immune system, and at the same time, allows the ...

Autophagy and checkpoints for intracellular pathogen defense. [PDF]

open access: yesCurr Opin Gastroenterol, 2015
Autophagy plays a crucial role in intracellular defense against various pathogens. Xenophagy is a form of selective autophagy that targets intracellular pathogens for degradation. In addition, several related, yet distinct, intracellular defense responses depend on autophagy-related genes.

Intracellular innate resistance to bacterial pathogens [PDF]

open access: yesCellular Microbiology, 2006
Mammalian innate immunity stimulates antigen-specific immune responses and acts to control infection prior to the onset of adaptive immunity. Some bacterial pathogens replicate within the host cell and are therefore sheltered from some protective aspects of innate immunity such as complement.

Parallel Exploitation of Diverse Host Nutrients Enhances Salmonella Virulence [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Pathogen access to host nutrients in infected tissues is fundamental for pathogen growth and virulence, disease progression, and infection control. However, our understanding of this crucial process is still rather limited because of experimental and ...

Intracellular phase for an extracellular bacterial pathogen: MgtC shows the way

open access: yes, 2015
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an extracellular pathogen known to impair host phagocytic functions. However, our recent results identify MgtC as a novel actor in P.

An intracellular bacterial pathogen triggers RIG-I/MDA5-dependent necroptosis

open access: yesCurrent Research in Microbial Sciences
RIG-I and MDA5 are members of RIG-I-like receptors (RLRs) that detect viral RNA within the cytoplasm and subsequently initiate antiviral immune responses.

A Genital Infection-Attenuated Chlamydia muridarum Mutant Infects the Gastrointestinal Tract and Protects against Genital Tract Challenge

open access: yesmBio, 2020
Chlamydia spp. productively infect mucosal epithelial cells of multiple anatomical sites, including the conjunctiva, lungs, gastrointestinal (GI) tract, and urogenital tract.

Probing Host Pathogen Cross-Talk by Transcriptional Profiling of Both Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Infected Human Dendritic Cells and Macrophages.

open access: yes, 2008
BACKGROUND: Transcriptional profiling using microarrays provides a unique opportunity to decipher host pathogen cross-talk on the global level. Here, for the first time, we have been able to investigate gene expression changes in both Mycobacterium ...
