Determination of Certain Immunological and Physicochemical Features of Pneumococcal Surface Protein A (PspA): In-silico Cloning of pspA [PDF]
Objective: Pneumococcal surface protein A (PspA) is present in almost all strains of pneumococci and is highly immunogenic, stimulating the production of antibodies. It has a role in pneumococcal pathogenicity.

Quorum Sensing Regulation of Competence and Bacteriocins in Streptococcus pneumoniae and mutans
The human pathogens Streptococcus pneumoniae and Streptococcus mutans have both evolved complex quorum sensing (QS) systems that regulate the production of bacteriocins and the entry into the competent state, a requirement for natural transformation ...

Cutaneous Melanoma Drives Metabolic Changes in the Aged Bone Marrow Immune Microenvironment
Melanoma, the deadliest form of skin cancer, increasingly affects older adults. Our study reveals that melanoma induces changes in iron and lipid levels in the bone marrow, impacting immune cell populations and increasing susceptibility to ferroptosis.

Neutrophil and lymphocyte responses to oral Streptococcus in Adamantiades-Behcet's disease [PDF]
Immune reactions against microorganisms play an important pathogenic role in Adamantiades-Behçet’s disease (ABD). We had previously obtained Streptococcus sanguinis (strain BD113-20) isolated from the oral cavity of patients with ABD.
