Legionella pneumophila pneumonia in South Eastern Sydney: diagnosis, prognosis and public health outcomes

Internal Medicine Journal, Volume 56, Issue 9, Page 1575-1583, September 2026.
Abstract Background Legionellosis causes more severe disease than other aetiologies of community‐acquired pneumonia (CAP). Early recognition and treatment of Legionella pneumonia reduce mortality. Urinary antigen testing (UAT) has facilitated rapid and reliable diagnosis of Legionella pneumonia. Aims The aims of this study were as follows: (i) identify

Coronavirus M Protein Hijacks Toll‐Interacting Protein (TOLLIP) to Suppress NF‐κB Signaling and Promote Immune Evasion

MedComm, Volume 7, Issue 7, July 2026.
Under physiological conditions, pathogenic stimuli activate TLR/IL1‐R signaling, triggering TOLLIP dissociation from IRAK1 and subsequent IRAK1 phosphorylation, TRAF6 ubiquitination, and NF‐κB activation. During SARS‐CoV‐2 infection, viral M protein binds TOLLIP and stabilizes the TOLLIP–IRAK1 complex, thereby suppressing NF‐κB signaling, impairing ...
