Natural Allelic Variations in IbCHYR1–IbZnFR Complex Regulate Fusarium Root Rot Resistance in Sweet Potato

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
FfRlpA2, a conserved Fusarium effector, functions as a protease inhibitor by hijacking the E3 ubiquitin ligase IbCHYR1 to degrade the resistance factor IbZnFR, thereby promoting Fusarium pathogenicity. Conversely, the high dosage Pro::IbZnFRHap2 allele was associated with resistance to root rot disease.

Cryptosporidium Pathogenicity and Virulence [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Microbiology Reviews, 2013
SUMMARYCryptosporidiumis a protozoan parasite of medical and veterinary importance that causes gastroenteritis in a variety of vertebrate hosts. Several studies have reported different degrees of pathogenicity and virulence amongCryptosporidiumspecies and isolates of the same species as well as evidence of variation in host susceptibility to infection.

An Apple Susceptibility‐Related LRR Receptor‐Like Kinase MdRLKT21 Activates Plant Immunity by Hijacking a Trans‐Kingdom Fungal microRNA‐Like RNA

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The apple susceptibility‐related LRR‐RLK MdRLKT21 competitively binds to fungal sRNA effectors and subsequently activates defenses by salvaging the expression of MdRLKT1 and MdRLKT2 and thereby releasing the resistance protein MdRFP1. These findings provide new insights into the molecular mechanism by which plants counteract pathogen‐secreted sRNA ...

Cross-alteration of murine skin and tick microbiome concomitant with pathogen transmission after Ixodes ricinus bite

open access: yesMicrobiome, 2023
Background Ticks are major vectors of diseases affecting humans such as Lyme disease or domestic animals such as anaplasmosis. Cross-alteration of the vertebrate host skin microbiome and the tick microbiome may be essential during the process of tick ...

Carrier‐Free Nanocapsule with Dual‐Target Capacity for Synergistically Restoring Inflammatory Microenvironment and Microbiota Dysbiosis in Colitis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This manuscript presents a carrier‐free nanomedicine PCNPs@PEG‐Man with dual‐targeting for IBD. It resists harsh intestinal conditions, reduces oxidative stress, enhances drug uptake and retention, modulates inflammation, and reshapes gut microbiota, offering a safe and effective IBD therapy.

Evolution of malaria virulence in cross-generation transmission through selective immune pressure [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Theoretical arguments and some mathematical models of host-parasite coevolution (e.g. [1- 6]) suggest host immunity as the driving source for the evolution of parasite virulence.
