Outer Membrane Vesicle-Host Cell Interactions [PDF]

Microbiology Spectrum, 2019
ABSTRACT Outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) are nanosized proteoliposomes derived from the outer membrane of Gram-negative bacteria. They are ubiquitously produced both in culture and during infection and are now recognized to play crucial roles during host-microbe interactions.

Incorporation of Plasmid DNA Into Bacterial Membrane Vesicles by Peptidoglycan Defects in Escherichia coli

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Membrane vesicles (MVs) are released by various prokaryotes and play a role in the delivery of various cell-cell interaction factors. Recent studies have determined that these vesicles are capable of functioning as mediators of horizontal gene transfer ...

Outer Membrane Vesicle Induction and Isolation for Vaccine Development

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Gram-negative bacteria release vesicular structures from their outer membrane, so called outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). OMVs have a variety of functions such as waste disposal, communication, and antigen or toxin delivery.

Caspase-8 binding to cardiolipin in giant unilamellar vesicles provides a functional docking platform for bid [PDF]

, 2013
Caspase-8 is involved in death receptor-mediated apoptosis in type II cells, the proapoptotic programme of which is triggered by truncated Bid. Indeed, caspase-8 and Bid are the known intermediates of this signalling pathway.

Comparison of Two Different Methods for the Extraction of Outer Membrane Vesicles from the Bordetella pertussis as a Vaccine Candidate [PDF]

Archives of Razi Institute, 2021
Despite the availability of a vaccine, pertussis is still a worldwide health problem. Outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) in gram-negative bacteria can stimulate the immune system due to several outer membrane proteins and are very good candidates in vaccine ...

Outer Membrane Vesicles: An Emerging Vaccine Platform

Vaccines, 2022
Vaccine adjuvants are substances that improve the immune capacity of a recombinant vaccine to a great extent and have been in use since the early 1900s; they are primarily short-lived and initiate antigen activity, mainly an inflammatory response.

Aberrant Membrane Structures in Hypervesiculating Escherichia coli Strain ΔmlaEΔnlpI Visualized by Electron Microscopy

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Escherichia coli produces extracellular vesicles called outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) by releasing a part of its outer membrane. We previously reported that the combined deletion of nlpI and mlaE, related to envelope structure and phospholipid ...

Identification of a synaptic vesicle-specific membrane protein with a wide distribution in neuronal and neurosecretory tissue. [PDF]

, 1981
Two different monoclonal antibodies, characterized initially as binding synaptic terminal regions of rat brain, bind a 65,000-dalton protein, which is exposed on the outer surface of brain synaptic vesicles. Immunocytochemical experiments at the electron

Comparative Analysis of Outer Membrane Vesicle Isolation Methods With an Escherichia coli tolA Mutant Reveals a Hypervesiculating Phenotype With Outer-Inner Membrane Vesicle Content

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) produced by Gram-negative bacteria are mediators of cell survival and pathogenesis by facilitating virulence factor dissemination and resistance to antimicrobials.
