Perfoliate Pondweed Meadows in Northern Coastal Areas—Reservoirs of Diverse Bacteria With Pathogenic Traits and Complex Carbon Metabolism

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 17, Issue 5, October 2025.
The perfoliate pondweed, Potamogeton perfoliatus, is a common macrophyte in freshwater and subarctic coastal areas. This species builds extensive meadows that play a role as a filter removing nutrients traversing from land to sea and maintaining essential ecosystem functions.

A Reflective Verbalization Strategy to Trigger Alternative Diagnostic Hypotheses

Journal of Evaluation in Clinical Practice, Volume 31, Issue 6, September 2025.
ABSTRACT Rationale Physicians sometimes encounter various types of gut feelings (GFs) during clinical diagnosis. The type of GF addressed in this paper refers to the intuitive sense that the generated hypothesis might be incorrect. An appropriate diagnosis cannot be obtained unless these GFs are articulated and inventive solutions are devised.

Phagocytosis of Legionella pneumophila is mediated by human monocyte complement receptors. [PDF]

, 1987
We have examined receptors mediating phagocytosis of the intracellular bacterial pathogen, Legionella pneumophila. Three mAbs against the type 3 complement receptor (CR3), which recognizes C3bi, inhibit adherence of L.

Seasonal Host Shifts for Legionella Within an Industrial Water‐Cooling System

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 17, Issue 4, August 2025.
Taxonomic profiling for Legionella (the causative agent of Legionnaires' disease) and protist hosts within a water cooling tower showed seasonal peaks for Legionella that were associated with taxonomic shifts in the protist community. Legionella frequency was tracked using amplicon sequencing (blue line) and serogroup profiling (red line).

Legionella pneumophila modulates the host cytoskeleton by an effector of transglutaminase activity

mLife, Volume 4, Issue 3, Page 232-248, June 2025.
Abstract The bacterial pathogen Legionella pneumophila delivers more than 330 effector proteins into host cells through its Dot/Icm type IV secretion system (T4SS) to facilitate its intracellular replication. A number of these effectors modulate organelle trafficking pathways to create a membrane‐bound niche called the Legionella‐containing vacuole ...
