A Broad-Spectrum Infection Diagnostic that Detects Pathogen-Associated Molecular Patterns (PAMPs) in Whole Blood [PDF]

open access: yesEBioMedicine, 2016
Blood cultures, and molecular diagnostic tests that directly detect pathogen DNA in blood, fail to detect bloodstream infections in most infected patients. Thus, there is a need for a rapid test that can diagnose the presence of infection to triage patients, guide therapy, and decrease the incidence of sepsis.An Enzyme-Linked Lectin-Sorbent Assay ...

Development of a Pseudomonas syringae–Arabidopsis Suspension Cell Infection System for Investigating Host Metabolite-Dependent Regulation of Type III Secretion and Pattern-Triggered Immunity

open access: yesMolecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2019
The importance of pattern-triggered immunity (PTI) in plant defense has been clearly established through genetic studies of mutants lacking functional pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) and signaling components downstream of PRR activation.

Post-Translational Modification of HMGB1 Disulfide Bonds in Stimulating and Inhibiting Inflammation

open access: yesCells, 2021
High mobility group box 1 protein (HMGB1), a highly conserved nuclear DNA-binding protein, is a “damage-associated molecular pattern” molecule (DAMP) implicated in both stimulating and inhibiting innate immunity.

Suppression of hepatitis B virus through therapeutic activation of RIG-I and IRF3 signaling in hepatocytes

open access: yesiScience, 2021
Summary: Hepatitis B virus (HBV) mediates persistent infection, chronic hepatitis, and liver disease. HBV covalently closed circular (ccc)DNA is central to viral persistence such that its elimination is considered the cornerstone for HBV cure ...

The Fungal Effector Avr-Pita Suppresses Innate Immunity by Increasing COX Activity in Rice Mitochondria

open access: yesRice, 2021
Background Avr-Pita was the first effector identified in the blast fungus (Magnaporthe oryzae)–rice (Oryza sativa) pathosystem. However, the molecular mechanism underlying its effects on the host plant has remained a long-standing mystery.

Dissecting the molecular interactions between wheat and the fungal pathogen Zymoseptoria tritici

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2016
The Dothideomycete fungus Zymoseptoria tritici (previously known as Mycosphaerella graminicola and Septoria tritici) is the causative agent of Septoria tritici leaf blotch (STB) disease of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.).

HvWRKY2 acts as an immunity suppressor and targets HvCEBiP to regulate powdery mildew resistance in barley

open access: yesCrop Journal, 2023
Plants use a sophisticated immune system to perceive pathogen infection and activate immune responses in a tightly controlled manner. In barley, HvWRKY2 acts as a repressor in barley disease resistance to the powdery mildew fungus, Blumeria graminis f ...

Effects of low dose GM-CSF on microglial inflammatory profiles to diverse pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Neuroinflammation, 2007
It is well appreciated that obtaining sufficient numbers of primary microglia for in vitro experiments has always been a challenge for scientists studying the biological properties of these cells. Supplementing culture medium with granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) partially alleviates this problem by increasing microglial yield.

Safety of Therapeutic Fever Induction in Cancer Patients Using Approved PAMP Drugs

open access: yesTranslational Oncology, 2018
William Coley, between 1895 and 1936, treated hundreds of cancer patients using infusions of fever inducing bacerial extracts. Similar experiments were done by Klyuyeva and co-workers in the 1940ies in Russia using trypanosoma extracts.

The Lamin-Like LITTLE NUCLEI 1 (LINC1) Regulates Pattern-Triggered Immunity and Jasmonic Acid Signaling

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2020
Pathogen-associated molecular pattern (PAMP) recognition occurs by plasma membrane located receptors that induce among other processes nuclear gene expression.
