Porphyromonas gingivalis Outer Membrane Vesicles Mediate Coaggregation and Piggybacking of Treponema denticola and Lachnoanaerobaculum saburreum [PDF]
International Journal of Dentistry, 2013 Porphyromonas gingivalis sheds outer membrane vesicles that contain several virulence factors, including adhesins. In this study, we investigated the ability of P.

Protein-enriched outer membrane vesicles as a native platform for outer membrane protein studies [PDF]
Communications Biology, 2018 AbstractMost studies characterizing the folding, structure, and function of membrane proteins rely on solubilized or reconstituted samples. Whereas solubilized membrane proteins lack the functionally important lipid membrane, reconstitution embeds them into artificial lipid bilayers, which lack characteristic features of cellular membranes including ...

BMC Microbiology, 2008 Background Outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) are released from the outer membrane of many Gram-negative bacteria. These extracellular compartments are known to transport compounds involved in cell-cell signalling as well as virulence associated proteins, e ...

Contribution of bacterial outer membrane vesicles to innate bacterial defense [PDF]
BMC Microbiology, 2011 Background Outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) are constitutively produced by Gram-negative bacteria throughout growth and have proposed roles in virulence, inflammation, and the response to envelope stress.

Do Bacterial Outer Membrane Vesicles Contribute to Chronic Inflammation in Parkinson’s Disease?
Journal of Parkinson’s DiseaseParkinson’s disease (PD) is an increasingly common neurodegenerative disease. It has been suggested that the etiology of idiopathic PD is complex and multifactorial involving environmental contributions, such as viral or bacterial infections and ...

Outer Membrane Vesicle Vaccine Platforms
BioDrugs, 2023 Outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) are spontaneously released by many gram-negative bacteria during their growth and constitute an important virulence factor for bacteria, helping them to survive through harsh environmental conditions. Native OMVs, naturally-released from bacteria, are produced at a level too low for vaccine manufacturing, requiring ...

Human Vaccines & Immunotherapeutics, 2012 Nowadays adjuvants are extensively used as immuno-stimulatory and immuno-modulatory compounds as components of subunit and combination vaccine formulations. The adjuvants of microbial origin are more frequently used among currently used licensed or experimental adjuvants.

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 ...

MicrobiologyOpen, 2022 Gaining structural information on membrane proteins in their native lipid environment is a long‐standing challenge in molecular biology. Instead, it is common to employ membrane mimetics, which has been shown to affect protein structure, dynamics, and ...
