Mixed lineage kinase-like protein protects against Clostridium perfringens infection by enhancing NLRP3 inflammasome-extracellular traps axis

open access: yesiScience, 2022
Summary: Despite intense research in understanding Clostridium perfringens (C. perfringens) pathogenesis, the mechanisms by which it is cleared from the host are largely unclarified. In C.

Microbial community succession on developing lesions on human enamel

open access: yesJournal of Oral Microbiology, 2012
Dental caries is one of the most common diseases in the world. However, our understanding of how the microbial community composition changes in vivo as caries develops is lacking.An in vivo model was used in a longitudinal cohort study to investigate ...

Quorum Sensing Behavior in the Model Unicellular Eukaryote Chlamydomonas reinhardtii

open access: yesiScience, 2020
Summary: Microbial communities display behavioral changes in response to variable environmental conditions. In some bacteria, motility increases as a function of cell density, allowing for population dispersal before the onset of nutrient scarcity ...

Reliable and robust control of nucleus centering is contingent on nonequilibrium force patterns

open access: yesiScience, 2023
Summary: Cell centers their division apparatus to ensure symmetric cell division, a challenging task when the governing dynamics is stochastic. Using fission yeast, we show that the patterning of nonequilibrium polymerization forces of microtubule (MT ...

Masters of the manipulator: two new hypocrealean genera, Niveomyces (Cordycipitaceae) and Torrubiellomyces (Ophiocordycipitaceae), parasitic on the zombie ant fungus Ophiocordyceps camponoti-floridani [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
During surveys in central Florida of the zombie-ant fungus Ophiocordyceps camponoti-floridani, which manipulates the behavior of the carpenter ant Camponotus floridanus, two distinct fungal morphotypes were discovered associated with and purportedly ...
