Blood vessels and their construction in the cavities of pulmonary tuberculosis [PDF]
, 1958 First of all, we investigated the origin, the construction and distribution of the bronchial arteries and veins in adult rabbits, and then observed various changes of the blood vessels in experimental cavities and caseous foci and also studied the ...

Immunology, EarlyView.Integrated transcriptomic, proteomic and flow cytometry analyses reveal that STAT1 negatively regulates MAIT cell effector and glycolytic functions, while STAT3, STAT5 and HIF1α act as positive modulators. Targeting these pathways may offer new strategies to restore MAIT cell function in immune dysregulation and cancer.

A case of bovine tuberculosis in pigs in Poland – a country free from the disease
Annals of Agricultural and Environmental Medicine, 2019 Introduction Bovine tuberculosis is a chronic contagious disease caused by Mycobacterium bovis or Mycobacterium caprae. Before widespread action conducted in Poland between 1959–1975 to combat bovine tuberculosis (BTB), about 40% of all tuberculosis ...

Acidic pH Restricts Non‐Tuberculous Mycobacteria Replication
Molecular Microbiology, EarlyView.Different nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) species display unique replication profiles in acidic pH in vitro which correlates to their replication within human macrophages. Inhibition of the acidic environments within the macrophage enhances bacterial viability emphasising the role of acidic pH during NTM infections.

Abrupt events and population synchrony in the dynamics of Bovine Tuberculosis
Nature Communications, 2018 The disease dynamics of bovine tuberculosis have been of interest given the pathogen’s effect on wild animal and livestock health. Here, the authors show that a brief cessation of testing for bovine tuberculosis in 2001 altered the population synchrony ...

Screening vaccine formulations for biological activity using fresh human whole blood. [PDF]
, 2014 Understanding the relevant biological activity of any pharmaceutical formulation destined for human use is crucial. For vaccine-based formulations, activity must reflect the expected immune response, while for non-vaccine therapeutic agents, such as ...

The Hemoprotein Hhy1 Promotes Heme‐Dependent Catalase Activity of Ctt1
Molecular Microbiology, EarlyView.A Schizosaccharomyces pombe strain deficient in heme (hem1Δ) and siderophore (Fc) biosynthesis, as well as high‐affinity iron (Fe) uptake (blue), was used to uncover the hemoprotein Hhy1 that promotes the heme‐dependent activity of the catalase Ctt1. In contrast, hhy1Δ cells exhibit reduced Ctt1 activity and increased sensitivity to oxidative stress ...
