GOP-1: Helping phagosomes pass the acid test [PDF]
Phagosomes form during engulfment of large particles and become increasingly acidic and proteolytic, ultimately fusing with lysosomes, in a process termed “phagosome maturation.” In this issue, Yin et al. (2017. J. Cell Biol.

The role of the host—Neutrophil biology
Abstract Neutrophilic polymorphonuclear leukocytes (neutrophils) are myeloid cells packed with lysosomal granules (hence also called granulocytes) that contain a formidable antimicrobial arsenal. They are terminally differentiated cells that play a critical role in acute and chronic inflammation, as well as in the resolution of inflammation and wound ...

Assay and Functional Properties of SopE in the Recruitment of Rab5 on Salmonella‐Containing Phagosomes [PDF]
We investigated the mechanism by which Salmonella inhibits transport to lysosomes to survive in macrophages. We have purified the Salmonella-containing phagosomes from macrophages and determined the presence of different endocytic Rab proteins on the ...

How phagocytic cells kill bacteria: Lessons from a professional killer
How phagocytic cells ingest and kill bacteria has been studied for more than a century, but many questions remain unanswered. The study of the amoeba Dictyostelium discoideum brings new answers, and new questions. Professional phagocytic cells such as neutrophils and macrophages, as well as free‐living soil amoebae like Dictyostelium discoideum, employ

Proteomic analysis of the Mycobacterium avium-containing phagosome membrane [PDF]
Includes abstract.Includes bibliographical references (leaves 139-158).Pathogenic mycobacteria, like [Mycobacterium tuberculosis] M.tb and Mycobacterium avium (M.av), reside intracellularly in phagosomes where they are able to survive, because they block

Peripheral Neutrophil Activation and Extracellular Trap Formation in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis
Markers of neutrophil activation are increased in plasma during ALS, and markers of NET formation associate with ALS survival. ABSTRACT Objectives Peripheral neutrophil levels in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) inversely correlate with survival, suggesting a role for neutrophils in disease progression.

The distinct fate of smooth and rough Mycobacterium abscessus variants inside macrophages [PDF]
Mycobacterium abscessus is a pathogenic, rapidly growing mycobacterium responsible for pulmonary and cutaneous infections in immunocompetent patients and in patients with Mendelian disorders, such as cystic fibrosis (CF). Mycobacterium abscessus is known

Under NIR irradiation, PTCPP generates ROS to eliminate MRSA biofilms and promote M1 macrophage polarization for phagocytosis. After bacterial clearance, the material is phagocytosed by macrophages, shifting their polarization to M2 phenotype via metabolic reprogramming, which synergistically enhances anti‐infection therapy and wound healing.

Stable accumulation of p67phox at the phagosomal membrane and ROS production within the phagosome [PDF]
ABSTRACT Production of ROS by the leukocyte NADPH oxidase is essential for the destruction of pathogenic bacteria inside phagosomes. The enzyme is a complex of cytosolic and membranous subunits that need to assemble upon activation. Biochemical data suggest that the complex is renewed continuously during activity.

Phagosomes from p110α deficient cells recruit Rab7 and its effectors, RILP and HOPS. [PDF]
A)Phagosomes from p110α knockdown cells are not defective in the recruitment of Rab7. Western blots of bead phagosome lysates (4 hours) isolated from control and p110α knockdown cells show no significant differences in recruitment of Rab7. Actin is shown
