Legionella pneumophila and Other Legionella Species Isolated from Legionellosis Patients in Japan between 2008 and 2016

Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 2018
Legionella pneumophila serogroup 1 (SG1) is the most frequent cause of legionellosis. Our previous genetic analysis indicated that SG1 environmental isolates represented 8 major clonal complexes, consisting of 3 B groups, 2 C groups, and 3 S groups ...

Uncovering Gaps in Knowledge: A Survey of Belgian General Practitioners’ Awareness of Legionnaires’ Disease Diagnostic Testing

Infectious Disease Reports
Background: The incidence of Legionnaires’ disease (LD) is increasing steadily in Europe. Its early diagnosis by general practitioners (GPs) is crucial for better patient outcomes. Study objectives: This study assessed Belgian GPs’ knowledge about LD and

Molecular characterization of Legionella pneumophila-induced interleukin-8 expression in T cells

BMC Microbiology, 2010
Background Legionella pneumophila is the causative agent of human Legionnaire's disease. During infection, the bacterium invades macrophages and lung epithelial cells, and replicates intracellularly.

Interactive effects of temperature, organic carbon, and pipe material on microbiota composition and Legionella pneumophila in hot water plumbing systems

Microbiome, 2017
Several biotic and abiotic factors have been reported to influence the proliferation of microbes, including Legionella pneumophila, in hot water premise plumbing systems, but their combined effects have not been systematically evaluated. Here, we utilize

Predictable Modulation of a Spontaneous Post‐translational Modification in Living Cells

Angewandte Chemie, Volume 137, Issue 39, September 22, 2025.
A new tool is reported for studying methylglyoxal (MGO)‐derived protein glycation by incorporating single amino acid mutations that predictably modulate glycation levels. Mass spectrometry of intact proteins and proteolytic digests reveal Tyr (or Glu) substitutions result in an increase (or decrease) in site‐specific glycation, enabling precise control
