Dengue Viruses Are Enhanced by Distinct Populations of Serotype Cross-Reactive Antibodies in Human Immune Sera

PLoS Pathogens, 2014
Dengue viruses (DENV) are mosquito-borne flaviviruses of global importance. DENV exist as four serotypes, DENV1-DENV4. Following a primary infection, individuals produce DENV-specific antibodies that bind only to the serotype of infection and other ...

Serotyping of Acinetobacter calcoaceticus. [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Pathology, 1984
Serotyping of Acinetobacter calcoaceticus by direct immunofluorescence and a capsule swelling reaction is described. One hundred isolates, including 12 from an outbreak in a neonatal department, were studied. Ninety five per cent of the isolates were typable by immunofluorescence and could be divided into 30 separate types, but 42.1% of typable strains,

A Novel Protein NAB1‐356 Encoded by circRNA circNAB1 Mitigates Atrial Fibrillation by Reducing Inflammation and Fibrosis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The circRNA circNAB1 is downregulated in AF patient. Silencing circNAB1 promotes collagen deposition and inflammation, whereas overexpression reduces AF susceptibility. circNAB1 encodes the protein NAB1 356 that interacts with EGR1 to mitigate fibrosis and inflammation.

Time-varying, serotype-specific force of infection of dengue virus

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2014
Significance Using mathematical models to extend knowledge of pathogen transmission and recommend optimized control efforts is dependent on the accuracy of model parameters.

A previously undescribed Salmonella serotype: S. sp. serotype rideau [PDF]

International Journal of Systematic Bacteriology, 1967
SUMMARY A new Salmonella serotype (1, 3, 19; fg:-) was described and the designation S. sp. serotype rideau was assigned to it. The culture was isolated in the routine screening of military personnel from Tanzania recently arrived in Canada for special training.

Syntaxin 17 Translocation Mediated Mitophagy Switching Drives Hyperglycemia‐Induced Vascular Injury

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Mitophagy switching drives high‐glucose‐induced vascular endothelial injury. Short‐term high‐glucose exposure upregulates Fis1 expression and enhances Fis1‐TBC1D15 interaction, activating Parkin‐mediated mitophagy. Long‐term high‐glucose exposure reduces Fis1 expression, inhibiting Parkin‐mediated mitophagy and triggering mitophagy switching from ...

The comparison of the methods for the identification of pathogenic serotypes and biotypes of Yersinia enterocolitica: Microbiological methods and PCR

Czech Journal of Food Sciences, 2006
In this study, pathogenic strains of Y. enterocolitica were identified by microbiological and PCR methods. The samples were collected from pigs, cattle, poultry, and slaughter houses. Three common techniques were used to isolate Y.

Spatio-temporal Dynamics of Foot-and-Mouth Disease Virus in South America [PDF]

arXiv, 2015
Although foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) incidence has decreased in South America over the last years, the pathogen still circulates in the region and the risk of re-emergence in previously FMDV-free areas is a veterinary public health concern. In this paper we merge environmental, epidemiological and genetic data to reconstruct spatiotemporal ...

Pneumococcal empyema and complicated pneumonias: global trends in incidence, prevalence, and serotype epidemiology

European Journal of Clinical Microbiology and Infectious Diseases, 2014
This review evaluates the serotype epidemiology of complicated pneumococcal pneumonia (CPP) during the period 1990–2012. PubMed and EMBASE were searched using the terms “empyema”, “complicated pneumonia”, “pleural infection”, “necrotizing pneumonia ...

Serotype specificity and immunogenicity of the capsular polymer of Haemophilus pleuropneumoniae serotype 5 [PDF]

Infection and Immunity, 1987
Serotyping of Haemophilus pleuropneumoniae and serologic assays for detection of serotype-specific antibody are problematic due to the potential cross-reactivity of the crude antigens used for raising immune serum or for serology. The capsular polymer (CP) of H.
