Host protein phosphorylation during "Shigella flexneri" infection : a phosphoproteomic based systems biology approach [PDF]
, 2015 The enteroinvasive bacterium Shigella flexneri triggers its uptake into epithelial cells by injecting several effector proteins via its type three secretion system (TTSS) and interferes with various host cell processes at later stages of infection.

PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2021 No vaccine to protect against an estimated 238,000 shigellosis deaths per year is widely available. S. sonnei is the most prevalent Shigella, and multiple serotypes of S. flexneri, which change regionally and globally, also cause significant disease. The

Cross-Protective Shigella Whole-Cell Vaccine With a Truncated O-Polysaccharide Chain
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2018 Shigella is a highly prevalent bacterium causing acute diarrhea and dysentery in developing countries. Shigella infections are treated with antibiotics but Shigellae are increasingly resistant to these drugs.

Elucidation of a molecular mechanism controlling inflammation during bacterial infection [PDF]
, 2015 Recently we described a mechanism of gap junction-mediated communication between infected and uninfected epithelial cells that potentiates innate immunity during infection by the enteroinvasive bacterium Shigella flexneri.

Lactoferrin-binding proteins in Shigella flexneri [PDF]
Infection and Immunity, 1992 The ability of Shigella flexneri to interact with lactoferrin (Lf) was examined with a 125I-labeled protein-binding assay. The percent binding of human lactoferrin (HLf) and bovine lactoferrin (BLf) to 45 S. flexneri strains was 19 +/- 3 and 21 +/- 3 (mean +/- standard error of the mean), respectively.

Amplifying the innate immune response : cell-cell propagation of proinflammatory signals during bacterial infection [PDF]
, 2012 The enteroinvasive bacterium Shigella flexneri uses multiple secreted effector proteins to downregulate interleukin-8 (IL-8) expression in infected epithelial cells. Nevertheless, massive IL-8 secretion is observed in shigellosis. In this thesis, a novel

mSphere, 2020 Shigella is the second leading cause of bacterial diarrhea worldwide. Recently, Shigella sonnei seems to be replacing Shigella flexneri in low- and middle-income countries undergoing economic development.

In vivo apoptosis in Shigella flexneri infections [PDF]
Infection and Immunity, 1996 Shigella flexneri, an etiological agent of bacillary dysentery, causes apoptosis in vitro. Here we show that it also induces apoptosis in vivo. We were able to quantify the number of apoptotic cells in rabbit Peyer's patches infected with S. flexneri by detecting cells with fragmented DNA. Infection with virulent S.
