Trauma and affect in a Holocaust survivor's story: Rosita Fanto's novel Rozalia Alone
Orbis Litterarum, EarlyView.Abstract My article endeavors to redress the neglect of Rosita Fanto's Rozalia Alone (2010), which deals with a page of history that is less known worldwide, the Holocaust in Romania. Using a trauma studies perspective that mixes with affect theory, the article demonstrates that Rozalia Alone covers in a nutshell the whole magnitude of the late 1930s ...

Mucosal‐Associated Invariant T Cells in Health and Disease
MedComm, Volume 7, Issue 10, October 2026.The roles of MAIT cells in health and disease and their therapeutic applications. In healthy individuals, riboflavin metabolites secreted by commensal bacteria at mucosal sites are presented by MR1, leading to the activation of MAIT cells. Activated MAIT cells can maintain the barrier integrity of mucosal tissues in a steady state or migrate to the ...

In situ molecular organization and heterogeneity of the Legionella Dot/Icm T4SS
FEBS Letters, Volume 600, Issue 11, Page 1589-1604, June 2026.We present a nearly complete in situ model of the Legionella Dot/Icm type IV secretion system, revealing its central secretion channel and identifying new components. Using cryo‐electron tomography with AI‐based modeling, our work highlights the structure, variability, and mechanism of this complex nanomachine, advancing understanding of bacterial ...
