The incidence and clinical burden of respiratory syncytial virus disease identified through hospital outpatient presentations in Kenyan children [PDF]

, 2012
There is little information that describe the burden of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) associated disease in the tropical African outpatient setting. Methods We studied a systematic sample of children aged

Composition and Stability of the Oxidative Phosphorylation System in the Halophile Plant Cakile maritima

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2019
Mitochondria play a central role in the energy metabolism of plants. At the same time, they provide energy for plant stress responses. We here report a first view on the mitochondrial Oxidative Phosphorylation (OXPHOS) system of the halophile (salt ...

Influence of age, severity of infection, and co-infection on the duration of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) shedding [PDF]

, 2015
RSV is the most important viral cause of pneumonia and bronchiolitis in children worldwide and has been associated with significant disease burden. With the renewed interest in RSV vaccines, we provide realistic estimates on duration, and influencing ...

Involvement of the cbb₃-Type Terminal Oxidase in Growth Competition of Bacteria, Biofilm Formation, and in Switching between Denitrification and Aerobic Respiration

Microorganisms, 2020
Paracoccus denitrificans has a branched electron transport chain with three terminal oxidases transferring electrons to molecular oxygen, namely aa3-type and cbb3-type cytochrome c oxidases and ba3-type ubiquinol oxidase. In the present study, we focused

Energy Conservation in the Acetogenic Bacterium Clostridium aceticum

Microorganisms, 2021
In times of global warming caused by the extensive use of fossil fuels, the need to capture gaseous carbon compounds is growing bigger. Several groups of microorganisms can fix the greenhouse gas CO2.

Respiratory Chain

, 2022
Mitochondria is a rod-shaped organelle with a diameter of 1 micrometer that evolved at least 2000 million years back. The endosymbiotic hypothesis suggests that mitochondria are descended from specialized bacteria (probably alpha proteobacteria) that acquired an oxygen utilizing respiratory chain.

Endogenous Carbon Monoxide Signaling Modulates Mitochondrial Function and Intracellular Glucose Utilization: Impact of the Heme Oxygenase Substrate Hemin

Antioxidants, 2020
Stress-inducible heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) catalyzes the oxidative cleavage of heme yielding biliverdin, ferrous iron, and carbon monoxide (CO). Heme oxygenase activity has been attributed to antioxidant defense via the redox cycling system of biliverdin ...

Incidence and severity of respiratory syncytial virus pneumonia in rural Kenyan children identified through hospital surveillance [PDF]

, 2009
Background.Although necessary for developing a rationale for vaccination, the burden of severe respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) disease in children in resource‐poor settings remains poorly defined.
