Shigella Effector VirA Suppresses Plant Immunity by Compromising PRA1.F3‐Dependent Accumulation of FLS2 at the Plasma Membrane

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Surface immune receptors such as flagellin‐sensitive 2 (FLS2) are critical for plant defence, and their accumulation at the plasma membrane is tightly controlled by the endomembrane system. Here, we identify the Arabidopsis thaliana prenylated Rab acceptor PRA1.F3 as a positive regulator required for efficient accumulation of FLS2 at the ...

Shigella flexneri Regulation of ARF6 Activation during Bacterial Entry via an IpgD-Mediated Positive Feedback Loop

mBio, 2015
Entry into cells is critical for virulence of the human bacterial pathogens Shigella spp. Shigella spp. induce membrane ruffle formation and macropinocytic uptake, but the events instigating this process are incompletely understood. The host small GTPase

Antimicrobial and Nutritional Properties of Edible Oyster Mushroom (Pleurotus ostreatus) Extracts Against Foodborne Pathogens Relevant to Maternal and Child Malnutrition in Africa

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 6, June 2026.
Somali Pleurotus ostreatus was extracted with water and ethanol and evaluated for nutrition, antibacterial activity, GC–MS profile, and molecular docking. The mushroom was rich in protein, fiber, iron, and zinc, while the ethanolic extract showed stronger moderate in vitro inhibition of selected foodborne pathogens than the aqueous extract.

Microbial Safety of Legumes—A Review: Bacterial Contamination, Foodborne Outbreaks, and Traditional and Innovative Mitigation Strategies

Legume Science, Volume 8, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Demand for plant‐based foods, including legumes, is growing as a result of consumer preferences shifting toward food sustainability and plant‐based, protein‐rich foods. However, to ensure the food safety of such alternatives, assessing the prevalence of foodborne pathogens related to these products is critical, especially with their increasing

Antimicrobial resistance patterns and prevalence of class 1 and 2 integrons in Shigella flexneri and Shigella sonnei isolated in Uzbekistan

Gut Pathogens, 2010
Background Shigella is a frequent cause of bacterial dysentery in the developing world. Treatment with effective antibiotics is recommended for shigellosis, but options become limited due to globally emerging resistance.
