Leveraging current insights on IL‐10‐producing dendritic cells for developing effective immunotherapeutic approaches

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In vivo IL‐10 produced by tissue‐resident tolDC is involved in maintaining/inducing tolerance. Depending on the agent used for ex vivo tolDC generation, cells acquire common features but prime T cells towards anergy, FOXP3+ Tregs, or Tr1 cells according to the levels of IL‐10 produced. Ex vivo‐induced tolDC were administered to patients to re‐establish/

The immunological interface: dendritic cells as key regulators in metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) affects nearly one‐third of the global population and poses a significant risk of progression to cirrhosis or liver cancer. Here, we discuss the roles of hepatic dendritic cell subtypes in MASLD, highlighting their distinct contributions to disease initiation and progression, and their ...

An optimised method for the extraction of bacterial mRNA from plant roots infected with Escherichia coli O157:H7

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2014
Analysis of microbial gene expression during host colonisation provides valuable information on the nature of interaction, beneficial or pathogenic, and the adaptive processes involved.

In vivo compaction dynamics of bacterial DNA: A fingerprint of DNA/RNA demixing ? [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Colloid & Interface Science, 26 (2016) 17-27, 2016
The volume occupied by unconstrained bacterial DNA in physiological solutions exceeds 1000 times the volume of the cell. Still, it is confined to a well defined region of the cell called the nucleoid, which occupies only a fraction of the cell volume.

Localization of the Bacterial RNA Infrastructure [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The bacterial RNA network includes most of the same components found in eukaryotes, and many of the interactions that under lie transcription, RNA processing and stability, translation, and protein secretion are conserved. The major difference is that all of these functions take place in a single cellular compartment.

Characterization of fungal carbonyl sulfide hydrolase belonging to clade D β‐carbonic anhydrase

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Here, we performed a functional analysis of the fungal enzymes belonging to clade D of the β‐class carbonic anhydrase family (β‐D‐CA). The β‐D‐CAs in the basidiomycete Gloeophyllum trabeum and the ascomycete Trichoderma harzianum showed very low activity in the hydration of CO2 but exhibited high activity in the hydrolysis of carbonyl sulfide (COS ...

Host species and environmental effects on bacterial communities associated with Drosophila in the laboratory and in the natural environment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The fruit fly Drosophila is a classic model organism to study adaptation as well as the relationship between genetic variation and phenotypes. Although associated bacterial communities might be important for many aspects of Drosophila biology, knowledge about their diversity, composition, and factors shaping them is limited.

Antibiotic drugs targeting bacterial RNAs

open access: yesActa Pharmaceutica Sinica B, 2014
RNAs have diverse structures that include bulges and internal loops able to form tertiary contacts or serve as ligand binding sites. The recent increase in structural and functional information related to RNAs has put them in the limelight as a drug target for small molecule therapy.

A histidine‐rich extension of the mitochondrial F0 subunit ATP6 from the ice worm Mesenchytraeus solifugus increases ATP synthase activity in bacteria

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The glacier ice worm Mesenchytraeus solifugus survives year‐round at 0 °C. Its ATP6 subunit, which forms a regulatory component of the proton pore in mitochondrial ATP synthase, has a carboxy‐terminal extension not found in any other organism examined to date. Here, we show that fusion of this extension to the homologous AtpB protein in E. coli results

Assessment of bacterial and viral gut communities in healthy and tumoral colorectal tissue using RNA and DNA deep sequencing

open access: yesCancer Medicine, 2023
Background Colorectal cancer (CRC) is known to present a distinct microbiome profile compared to healthy mucosa. Non‐targeted deep‐sequencing strategies enable nowadays full microbiome characterization up to species level.
