SaQuant: a real-time PCR assay for quantitative assessment of Staphylococcus aureus
Background Molecular assays are important tools for pathogen detection but need to be periodically re-evaluated with the discovery of additional genetic diversity that may cause assays to exclude target taxa or include non-target taxa.

It is known that schistosome-derived antigens induce innate and adaptive immune responses that are essential for the formation of hepatic immunopathology. Here, we screened and synthesized four peptides derived from Schistosoma japonicum (S.

Pathogen recognition and innate immunity.
Microorganisms that invade a vertebrate host are initially recognized by the innate immune system through germline-encoded pattern-recognition receptors (PRRs).

Pathogen burden and cortisol profiles over the day [PDF]
Hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenocortical (HPA) regulation in adults is influenced by early psychosocial adversity, but the role of infectious disease history is poorly understood.

Nuclear processes associated with plant immunity and pathogen susceptibility [PDF]
Plants are sessile organisms that have evolved exquisite and sophisticated mechanisms to adapt to their biotic and abiotic environment. Plants deploy receptors and vast signalling networks to detect, transmit and respond to a given biotic threat by ...

Pathogen disgust sensitivity: Individual differences in pathogen perception or pathogen avoidance?
The emotion disgust motivates the avoidance of pathogens and contaminants. Individuals differ in their tendency to experience disgust and this is reflected in pathogen disgust sensitivity. Yet, it remains unclear which differences in psychological processes are captured by pathogen disgust sensitivity. We tested two hypotheses about how the information

Rapid Pathogen Detection by Metagenomic Next-Generation Sequencing of Infected Body Fluids
We developed a metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) test using cell-free DNA from body fluids to identify pathogens. The performance of mNGS testing of 182 body fluids from 160 patients with acute illness was evaluated using two sequencing ...

Variation in resistance to multiple pathogen species:anther-smuts of Silene uniflora [PDF]
The occurrence of multiple pathogen species on a shared host species is unexpected when they exploit the same micro-niche within the host. One explanation for such observations is the evolution of pathogen-specific resistances that segregate the host ...
