Legionella pneumophila-Derived Outer Membrane Vesicles Promote Bacterial Replication in Macrophages. [PDF]

PLoS Pathogens, 2016
The formation and release of outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) is a phenomenon of Gram-negative bacteria. This includes Legionella pneumophila (L. pneumophila), a causative agent of severe pneumonia. Upon its transmission into the lung, L.

The Legionella pneumophila Dot/Icm type IV secretion system and its effectors.

Microbiology, 2022
To prevail in the interaction with eukaryotic hosts, many bacterial pathogens use protein secretion systems to release virulence factors at the host–pathogen interface and/or deliver them directly into host cells. An outstanding example of the complexity

Rapid Detection and Differentiation of Legionella pneumophila and Non-Legionella pneumophila Species by Using Recombinase Polymerase Amplification Combined With EuNPs-Based Lateral Flow Immunochromatography

Frontiers in Chemistry, 2022
Legionella, a waterborne pathogen, is the main cause of Legionnaires’ disease. Therefore, timely and accurate detection and differentiation of Legionella pneumophila and non-Legionella pneumophila species is crucial. In this study, we develop an easy and

Translocated Legionella pneumophila small RNAs mimic eukaryotic microRNAs targeting the host immune response

Nature Communications, 2022
Legionella pneumophila is an intracellular bacterial pathogen that can cause a severe form of pneumonia in humans, a phenotype evolved through interactions with aquatic protozoa in the environment. Here, we show that L.

Legionellosis Caused by Non-Legionella pneumophila Species, with a Focus on Legionella longbeachae

Microorganisms, 2021
Although known as causes of community-acquired pneumonia and Pontiac fever, the global burden of infection caused by Legionella species other than Legionella pneumophila is under-recognised. Non-L.
