Latent Neoehrlichia mikurensis Infections May Be Reactivated in Patients With B‐Cell Lymphomas Treated With Rituximab

Immunology, EarlyView.
Eight percent of this cohort of patients had a latent Neoehrlichia mikurensis infection. It was only the latently infected patients who had N. mikurensis‐specific T cells, not the matched B‐cell lymphoma patients without the infection. The T‐cell responses of latently infected patients included perforin‐expressing Th1 and CD8+ T cells that upregulated ...

Evasion of autophagy mediated by Rickettsia surface protein OmpB is critical for virulence. [PDF]

, 2019
Rickettsia are obligate intracellular bacteria that evade antimicrobial autophagy in the host cell cytosol by unknown mechanisms. Other cytosolic pathogens block different steps of autophagy targeting, including the initial step of polyubiquitin-coat ...
