Phylogeography and molecular epidemiology of Yersinia pestis in Madagascar [PDF]

, 2011
Background: Plague was introduced to Madagascar in 1898 and continues to be a significant human health problem. It exists mainly in the central highlands, but in the 1990s was reintroduced to the port city of Mahajanga, where it caused extensive human ...

Contribuição para o diagnóstico de peste Contribution towards plague diagnosis

Revista da Sociedade Brasileira de Medicina Tropical, 2007
Apesar de sua fundamentação clínico-epidemiológica, numerosos casos suspeitos de peste nos focos brasileiros têm sido descartados por serem negativos pelo teste de hemaglutinação para detecção de anticorpos contra o antígeno F1 da Yersinia pestis.

Neutrophils are resistant to Yersinia YopJ/P-induced apoptosis and are protected from ROS-mediated cell death by the type III secretion system.

PLoS ONE, 2010
BackgroundThe human innate immune system relies on the coordinated activity of macrophages and polymorphonuclear leukocytes (neutrophils or PMNs) for defense against bacterial pathogens. Yersinia spp.

Molecular Characterization of Cysteine Protease YopT from by Homology Modeling and Binding Site Identification

Drug Target Insights, 2014
Plague is a major health concern and Yersinia pestis plays the central causal role in this disease. Yersinia pestis has developed resistance against the commonly available drugs. So, it is now a key concern to find a new drug target.

Polymorphism in the Yersinia LcrV Antigen Enables Immune Escape From the Protection Conferred by an LcrV-Secreting Lactococcus Lactis in a Pseudotuberculosis Mouse Model

Frontiers in Immunology, 2019
Yersinioses caused by Yersinia pestis, Yersinia pseudotuberculosis, and Yersinia enterocolitica are significant concerns in human and veterinary health. The link between virulence and the potent LcrV antigen has prompted the latter's selection as a major

HmsB, a small RNA, enhances biofilm formation in Yersinia pestis

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2014
The hmsHFRS operon is responsible for biosynthesis and translocation of biofilm matrix exopolysaccharide. Yersinia pestis expresses the two sole diguanylate cyclases HmsT and HmsD and the sole phosphodiesterase HmsP, which are specific for biosynthesis ...
