Staphylococcus aureus persistence in osteocytes: weathering the storm of antibiotics and autophagy/xenophagy

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology
Staphylococcus aureus is a major causative pathogen of osteomyelitis. Intracellular infections of resident bone cells including osteocytes can persist despite gold-standard clinical intervention. The mechanisms by which intracellular S. aureus evades antibiotic therapy are unknown. In this study, we utilised an in vitro S.

Macrophage Autophagy and Bacterial Infections

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2017
Autophagy is a well-conserved lysosomal degradation pathway that plays key roles in bacterial infections. One of the most studied is probably xenophagy, the selective capture and degradation of intracellular bacteria by lysosomes.

The Autophagy Receptor TAX1BP1 and the Molecular Motor Myosin VI Are Required for Clearance of Salmonella Typhimurium by Autophagy.

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2015
Autophagy plays a key role during Salmonella infection, by eliminating these pathogens following escape into the cytosol. In this process, selective autophagy receptors, including the myosin VI adaptor proteins optineurin and NDP52, have been shown to ...

Group A Streptococcus Induces LAPosomes via SLO/β1 Integrin/NOX2/ROS Pathway in Endothelial Cells That Are Ineffective in Bacterial Killing and Suppress Xenophagy

open access: yesmBio, 2019
Group A streptococcus (GAS) is an important human pathogen which can cause fatal diseases after invasion into the bloodstream. Although antibiotics and immune surveillance are the main defenses against GAS infection, GAS utilizes internalization into ...

Vaccinia virus subverts xenophagy through phosphorylation and nuclear targeting of p62

open access: yesJournal of Cell Biology
Autophagy is an essential degradation program required for cell homeostasis. Among its functions is the engulfment and destruction of cytosolic pathogens, termed xenophagy. Not surprisingly, many pathogens use various strategies to circumvent or co-opt autophagic degradation. For poxviruses, it is known that infection activates autophagy, which however

Xenophagy-Evasion Mechanisms by Intracellular Pathogens in Bacteria, Viruses, and Parasites

open access: yesJournal of Inflammatory and Infectious Medicine
Autophagy is an essential process for maintaining cellular homeostasis. Xenophagy, a key defense mechanism, selectively degrades and eliminates pathogens such as bacteria, viruses, and parasites that have invaded the host. Host cells mark pathogens through ubiquitination. These marked pathogens are then recognized by autophagy receptors and sequestered
