Pyruvate formate lyase is required for pneumococcal fermentative metabolism and virulence.

, 2009
Knowledge of the in vivo physiology and metabolism of Streptococcus pneumoniae is limited, even though pneumococci rely on efficient acquisition and metabolism of the host nutrients for growth and survival.

Development and Application of a Rapid 23S rRNA‐Targeted Reverse Transcription Quantitative PCR System for the Detection and Quantification of Enterobacterales

Microbiology and Immunology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Bacteria belonging to the family Enterobacteriaceae occur as commensals or pathogens in humans. The increasing prevalence of multidrug‐resistant bacteria has raised global concern. Following the reclassification of Enterobacteriaceae species into the order Enterobacterales in 2016.

Host Phylogeny and Feeding Habit Jointly Govern Mammalian Gut Microbiota Composition

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Herbivores showed higher alpha diversity than carnivores/omnivores, while omnivores had the highest beta diversity. Host phylogeny influenced gut microbiota more strongly in herbivores/omnivores, with phylogenetic distance correlating to microbiota dissimilarity.

The enzymology of Streptococcus pneumoniae peptidoglycan polymerisation [PDF]

Bacterial cell survival depends on intact peptidoglycan, an extensive cell wall polymer of alternating N-acetylglucosamine and N-acetylmuramic acid residues, cross-linked by short peptides.

Autosomal Dominant Hyper‐IgE Syndrome Patients Retain IL10‐Producing preTh17‐Cells That Are Activated by Opportunistic Pathogens and Support IgE Production

Allergy, EarlyView.
IL‐10 producing CCR6+Th‐cells are central memory T‐cells that express ROR‐γt and differentiate to Th17‐cells via an autocrine loop of STAT3‐activating cytokines (preTh17). STAT3‐deficient AD‐HIES patients lack Th17‐ and Tfh17‐cells but retain preTh17‐ and Th1/17‐cells.

The role of the host—Neutrophil biology

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Neutrophilic polymorphonuclear leukocytes (neutrophils) are myeloid cells packed with lysosomal granules (hence also called granulocytes) that contain a formidable antimicrobial arsenal. They are terminally differentiated cells that play a critical role in acute and chronic inflammation, as well as in the resolution of inflammation and wound ...

Continued control of pneumococcal disease in the UK - the impact of vaccination

, 2011
Streptococcus pneumoniae, also known as the pneumococcus, is an important cause of morbidity and mortality in the developed and developing world. Pneumococcal conjugate vaccines were first introduced for routine use in the USA in 2000, although the seven-

Pathogenic Airway Bacteria and Local Immune Responses During Early‐Life Asthma‐Like Episodes

Allergy, EarlyView.
This study investigates how Haemophilus influenzae, Streptococcus pneumoniae, and Moraxella catarrhalis associate with airway immune responses during early‐life asthma‐like episodes, and compare these responses between children with and without asthma.

IgE‐Binding Bacterial Components Not Yet Documented in the Allergen Databases and Their Allergenic Mechanisms: An EAACI Position Paper

Allergy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Among bacteria that are associated with the development and/or exacerbation of allergic/atopic diseases, several have been described to produce IgE‐binding components. However, only one bacterial protein, Bac s 1, is currently listed in the official database of the World Health Organization/International Union of Immunological Societies (WHO ...
