Comparative analysis of pyrosequencing and a phylogenetic microarray for exploring microbial community structures in the human distal intestine [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
BACKGROUND: Variations in the composition of the human intestinal microbiota are linked to diverse health conditions. High-throughput molecular technologies have recently elucidated microbial community structure at much higher resolution than was ...

Using microbial metalo-aminopeptidases as targets in human infectious diseases [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Several microbial metalo-aminopeptidases are emerging as novel targets for the treatment of human infectious diseases. Some of them are well validated as targets and some are not; some are essential enzymes and others are important for virulence and ...

The forces driving clonal expansion of the HIV-1 latent reservoir

open access: yesVirology Journal, 2020
Despite antiretroviral therapy (ART) which halts HIV-1 replication and reduces plasma viral load to clinically undetectable levels, viral rebound inevitably occurs once ART is interrupted.

SRSF6 balances mitochondrial-driven innate immune outcomes through alternative splicing of BAX

open access: yeseLife, 2022
To mount a protective response to infection while preventing hyperinflammation, gene expression in innate immune cells must be tightly regulated. Despite the importance of pre-mRNA splicing in shaping the proteome, its role in balancing immune outcomes ...

Type 3 secretion system as an anti-Pseudomonal target

open access: yes, 2021
Type 3 secretion systems (T3SSs) are a series of mechanisms involved in bacterial pathogenesis. While Pseudomonas aeruginosa only possess one T3SS, it plays a key role in the virulence of P. aeruginosa virulence.

S9.6-based hybrid capture immunoassay for pathogen detection

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
The detection of pathogens is critical for clinical diagnosis and public health surveillance. Detection is usually done with nucleic acid-based tests (NATs) and rapid antigen tests (e.g., lateral flow assays [LFAs]).

The role of host and microbial factors in the pathogenesis of pneumococcal bacteraemia arising from a single bacterial cell bottleneck. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The pathogenesis of bacteraemia after challenge with one million pneumococci of three isogenic variants was investigated. Sequential analyses of blood samples indicated that most episodes of bacteraemia were monoclonal events providing compelling ...
