Virulence Factors of Bordetella pertussis.
百日咳はワクチン接種の普及により日本では過去の病気となりつつあるが, 予防接種の行き渡らない国々では今なお猛威を奮っている小児の呼吸器伝染病で, 病因的にはジフテリアと同様, 毒素性疾患として理解し得る。最近では伝染源としての成人感染者が問題視され始めたが, 呼吸器感染症の常として根絶は殆ど不可能であり, 感染の予防, 治療に関する研究成果のみが百日咳の制圧を可能にする途である。本小文では, 百日咳菌の産生する病原因子のうち, 感染の第一段階である宿主細胞への菌の吸着に関与する接着因子 (繊維状赤血球凝集素, 線毛, パータクチン) および百日咳症の発現に関与する毒素類 (百日咳毒素, アデニレートシクラーゼ毒素, 気管上皮細胞毒素, 皮膚壊死毒素, 内毒素) の産生, 性状 ...

Multi‐Targeting Carnosic Acid Kills Drug‐Resistant Helicobacter pylori With Narrow‐Spectrum Activity
Carnosic acid selectively eradicates drug‐resistant Helicobacter pylori through a multi‐targeted mechanism involving urease inhibition, membrane disruption, and biofilm eradication. It exhibits no detectable resistance, potent in vivo efficacy, and minimal impact on gut microbiota, positioning it as a promising narrow‐spectrum lead compound against ...

ABSTRACT Background Although shifts in nasal microbiota have been well‐documented in inflammatory upper airway conditions, microbiota tumor‐associated alterations remain uncharacterized. This study is the first to compare sinonasal microbiota profiles of patients with malignant tumors (MT), benign tumors (BT), and controls, offering insights into tumor‐

ABSTRACT Introduction Staphylococcus species are frequently isolated from the sinonasal niche of chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) patients. While Staphylococcus aureus is often associated with recalcitrant CRS, Staphylococcus epidermidis and Staphylococcus lugdunensis are largely deemed commensal.

Advances and perspectives in animal models of human hepatitis A virus
Following HAV infection, humans, non‐human primates, and Ifnar1−/− mice develop characteristic manifestations of hepatitis A, including fecal viral shedding, elevated serum ALT levels, and inflammatory cell infiltration in the liver. In contrast, HAV‐infected human liver chimeric mice exhibit fecal viral shedding but do not develop clinical features of

This study establishes an NPG (NOD.Cg‐Prkdcscid Il2rgtm1/Vst) mouse model for severe monkeypox virus infection in immunocompromised hosts, demonstrating dose‐dependent disease severity and revealing that unbalanced pro‐inflammatory cytokine release drives pathogenesis, providing insights for therapeutic interventions. Abstract The global spread of mpox
