Structural studies of Vibrio cholerae quorum sensing proteins [PDF]
The spread of cholera is always associated with contaminated food or water and this is the reason this disease has been endemic in developing countries for centuries due to their lack of proper sanitation facilities and poor or no infrastructure for ...

Mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) is an immunosuppressive drug widely used by solid organ transplant recipients. Although it is known that MMF suppresses immune responses, its exact effects on specific vaccinations have not been investigated yet. Mucosal vaccinations are increasingly used, such as a cholera vaccination consisting of two oral immunizations ...

Mucosal‐Associated Invariant T Cells in Health and Disease
The roles of MAIT cells in health and disease and their therapeutic applications. In healthy individuals, riboflavin metabolites secreted by commensal bacteria at mucosal sites are presented by MR1, leading to the activation of MAIT cells. Activated MAIT cells can maintain the barrier integrity of mucosal tissues in a steady state or migrate to the ...

Capture of long‐missing heme oxygenases that degrade both heme b and heme c
Abstract Heme serves as a crucial cofactor for hemoproteins and as an iron reservoir; yet, its accumulation is toxic, necessitating efficient degradation pathways. While the catabolism of free heme b is well characterized, the enzymes that disrupt its counterpart covalently tethered to a peptide (heme c) have remained elusive.

Nontoxigenic Vibrio cholerae Septicemia in an Immunocompromised Patient
We report a recent case of non-O1, non-O139, nontoxigenic Vibrio cholerae septicemia in a post-liver-transplant immunocompromised patient associated with prior seafood consumption. Non-O1, non-O139 V.
