Pathogenesis of Important Virulence Factors of Porphyromonas gingivalis via Toll-Like Receptors
Periodontitis is a common intraoral infection and is inextricably linked to systemic diseases. Recently, the regulation between host immunologic response and periodontal pathogens has become a hotspot to explain the mechanism of periodontitis and related

Interaction extracellular vesicles (iEVs) are hybrid vesicles formed through host‐pathogen communication. They facilitate immune evasion, transfer pathogens' molecules, increase host cell uptake, and enhance virulence. This Perspective article illustrates the multifunctional roles of iEVs and highlights their emerging relevance in infection dynamics ...

Towards a Quantitative Modeling of the Synthesis of the Pectate Lyases, Essential Virulence Factors in Dickeya Dadantii [PDF]
A dynamic mathematical model has been developed and validated to describe the synthesis of pectate lyases (Pels), the major virulence factors in Dickeya dadantii. This work focuses on the simultaneous modeling of the metabolic degradation of pectin by Pel enzymes and the genetic regulation of pel genes by 2-keto-3-deoxygluconate (KDG), a catabolite ...

Molecular Detection of Virulence Factors (Adhesion Genes) in Some Staphylococcus Epidermidis Locally Isolated From Different Clinical Sources [PDF]
The icaA and icaD genes are found in bacterial cells. The icaA and icaD genes allow a bacterium to produce biofilm. Biofilms are an important virulence determinant in bacteria because biofilm formation significantly increases resistance to antibiotics ...

The Shigella flexneri OmpA amino acid residues 188EVQ190 are essential for the interaction with the virulence factor PhoN2 [PDF]
Shigella flexneri is an intracellular pathogen that deploys an arsenal of virulence factors promoting host cell invasion, intracellular multiplication and intra- and inter-cellular dissemination.

Virulence factors in endometrial cancer [PDF]
AbstractThe majority of endometrial cancers are relatively benign and curable; there is a subset of virulent tumors that demands recognition. Factors that must be evaluated include: tumor grade, ploidy, steroid receptors, myometrial invasion, lymph node status, extrauterine disease or positive peritoneal fluid, and certain special tumors.
