Reciprocal control of viral infection and phosphoinositide dynamics
Phosphoinositides, although scarce, regulate key cellular processes, including membrane dynamics and signaling. Viruses exploit these lipids to support their entry, replication, assembly, and egress. The central role of phosphoinositides in infection highlights phosphoinositide metabolism as a promising antiviral target.

The Basics and the Advancements in Diagnosis of Bacterial Lower Respiratory Tract Infections
Lower respiratory tract infections (LRTIs) are the leading infectious cause of death and the sixth-leading cause of death overall worldwide. Streptococcus pneumoniae, with more than 90 serotypes, remains the most common identified cause of community ...

Proteostasis and the gut microbiota play a key role in shaping host physiology. Microbiota‐derived metabolites, vitamins, and RNA modulate host proteostasis. Findings from model systems, including C. elegans, indicate microbes can either stabilize or disrupt host proteostasis.

Significance of Moraxella catarrhalis as a causative organism of lower respiratory tract infections
Background: Moraxella catarrhalis is an exclusively human pathogen that may be overlooked in culture because of its phenotypic similarity to commensal Neisseria. Indeed, beta lactamase producing isolates of M.

Acute Lower Respiratory Tract Infection [PDF]
Acute lower respiratory tract infections are a major cause of death and disability, yet the mechanisms that make such infections so virulent are not entirely understood. This review emphasizes the roles of inflammation and the response of the innate immune system and explains how these two processes interact to rid the lung of microbes but also how ...
