Brucella infection and Toll-like receptors

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology
Brucella consists of gram-negative bacteria that have the ability to invade and replicate in professional and non-professional phagocytes, and its prolonged persistence in the host leads to brucellosis, a serious zoonosis.

Receptor Mechanisms of the Inflammatory Process Initiation in Infectious Diseases

open access: yesZdorovʹe Rebenka, 2012
The review of scientific literature gives current ideas about the participation of the pattern-recognizing receptors in the induction of inflammatory reaction in response to the action of pathogen-associated molecular patterns of infectious pathogens.

AscF in the mycobacterial CIII–CIV supercomplex lacks metal and nucleotide binding but links malate oxidation to respiration

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The mycobacterial CIII‐CIV respiratory supercomplex is an obligate assembly, encompassing several subunits of unknown functions. We have characterized the intracellular subunit AscF, and show that it is unlikely to be a sensor for metals or nucleotides, but is required for growth on nonfermentable energy sources, and likely works as an adapter for ...

Innate Immune Recognition: An Issue More Complex Than Expected

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2019
Primary interaction of an intracellular bacterium with its host cell is initiated by activation of multiple signaling pathways in response to bacterium recognition itself or as cellular responses to stress induced by the bacterium.

Pathogen Associated Molecular Pattern Recognition in Innate Immunity

open access: yesEnsho Saisei, 2003
Toll-like receptors (TLRs) play a critical role in the detection of invading pathogens and subsequent immune response against them. Individual TLRs recognize distinct microbial components. The TLR is a type 1 transmembrane receptor that is composed of an extracellular leucine-rich repeat (LRR) domain and cytoplasmic domain homologous to that of the IL ...

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...

Keratin 19 as a prognostic marker and contributing factor of metastasis and chemoresistance in high‐grade serous ovarian cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Keratin 19 (KRT19) is overexpressed in high‐grade serous ovarian cancer with high levels of Kallikrein‐related peptidases (KLK) 4–7 and is associated with poor survival. In vivo analyses demonstrate that elevated KRT19 increases peritoneal tumour burden.

Somatic mutational landscape in von Hippel–Lindau familial hemangioblastoma

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
The causes of central nervous system (CNS) hemangioblastoma in Von Hippel–Lindau (vHL) disease are unclear. We used Whole Exome Sequencing (WES) on familial hemangioblastoma to investigate events that underlie tumor development. Our findings suggest that VHL loss creates a permissive environment for tumor formation, while additional alterations ...

Intratracheally Administered Pathogen-Associated Molecular Patterns Affect Antibody Responses of Poultry

open access: yesPoultry Science, 2007
Various potential immune-modulating microbially derived pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMP), or so called homotopes, are present in high concentrations in the environment of food animals. In previous studies, intravenously administered PAMP had variable effects on specific primary and secondary immune responses of poultry to systemically ...
