FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Inositol pyrophosphates are energy‐rich signaling molecules that perform critical functions in cells. Three different families of phosphatases hydrolyze the β phosphate of the inositol pyrophosphate molecules: two have narrow specificities and one is promiscuous.

How phagocytic cells kill bacteria: Lessons from a professional killer
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.How phagocytic cells ingest and kill bacteria has been studied for more than a century, but many questions remain unanswered. The study of the amoeba Dictyostelium discoideum brings new answers, and new questions. Professional phagocytic cells such as neutrophils and macrophages, as well as free‐living soil amoebae like Dictyostelium discoideum, employ

Virulence of Influenza A Virus for Mouse Lung [PDF]
Virus Genes, 1997 The experimental infection of mouse lung with influenza A virus has proven to be an invaluable model for studying the mechanisms of viral adaptation and virulence. These investigations have identified critical roles for the haemagglutinin (HA) and matrix (M) genes of the virus in determining virulence for mouse lung.

Modeling of Viral Infection with Inflammation
, 2023 International audienceViral infection spreads in cell culture or tissue as a reaction–diffusion wave. It is characterized by three main parameters: virus replication number, Rv, which determines whether infection progresses, wave speed, c, which ...

Pathogenesis and virulence of Heartland virus
VirulenceHeartland virus (HRTV), an emerging tick-borne pathogenic bunyavirus, has been a concern since 2012, with an increasing incidence, expanding geographical distribution, and high pathogenicity in the United States. Infection from HRTV results in fever, thrombocytopenia, and leucopenia in humans, and in some cases, symptoms can progress to severe outcomes,

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Clinically, intermittent hypoxia (IH) is often accompanied by periodontitis, which accelerates cognitive impairment induced by IH. Novel Janus mesoporous gold‐silica nanoformulations (RVG‐Au&mSiO2‐TPP‐VB) enable intranasal delivery, achieve hierarchical targeting to neuronal mitochondria, effectively scavenge reactive oxygen species, inhibit the HIF‐1α/

A single nucleotide in stem loop II of 5'-untranslated region contributes to virulence of enterovirus 71 in mice. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 BACKGROUND: Enterovirus 71 (EV71) has emerged as a neuroinvasive virus responsible for several large outbreaks in the Asia-Pacific region while virulence determinant remains unexplored.
