Journal Article

Molecular mechanisms of EBV-driven cell cycle progression and oncogenesis

Yin, Huali; Qu, Jiani; Peng, Qiu; Gan, Runliang

2018 Medical Microbiology and Immunology

doi:10.1007/s00430-018-0570-1 pmid:30386928

The early stage of oncogenesis is linked to the disorder of the cell cycle. Abnormal gene expression often leads to cell cycle disorders, resulting in malignant transformation of human cells. Epstein–Barr virus (EBV) is associated with a diverse range of human neoplasms, such as malignant...

Interaction of host and Staphylococcus aureus protease-system regulates virulence and pathogenicity

Singh, Vigyasa; Phukan, Ujjal

2018 Medical Microbiology and Immunology

doi:10.1007/s00430-018-0573-y pmid:30483863

Staphylococcus aureus causes various health care- and community-associated infections as well as certain chronic TH2 driven inflammatory diseases. It is a potent pathogen with serious virulence and associated high morbidity. Severe pathogenicity is accredited to the S. aureus secreted virulence...

Biogenic Au@ZnO core–shell nanocomposites kill Staphylococcus aureus without provoking nuclear damage and cytotoxicity in mouse fibroblasts cells under hyperglycemic condition with enhanced wound healing proficiency

Khan, Md.; Behera, Susanta; Paul, Prajita; Das, Bhaskar; Suar, Mrutyunjay; Jayabalan, R.; Fawcett, Derek; Poinern, Gerrard; Tripathy, Suraj; Mishra, Amrita

2018 Medical Microbiology and Immunology

doi:10.1007/s00430-018-0564-z pmid:30291475

The aim of the present study is focused on the synthesis of Au@ZnO core–shell nanocomposites, where zinc oxide is overlaid on biogenic gold nanoparticles obtained from Hibiscus Sabdariffa plant extract. Optical property of nanocomposites is investigated using UV–visible spectroscopy and crystal...

Identification of complement-related host genetic risk factors associated with influenza A(H1N1)pdm09 outcome: challenges ahead

Chatzopoulou, Fani; Gioula, Georgia; Kioumis, Ioannis; Chatzidimitriou, Dimitris; Exindari, Maria

2018 Medical Microbiology and Immunology

doi:10.1007/s00430-018-0567-9 pmid:30306260

Influenza remains an important threat for human health, despite the extensive study of influenza viruses and the production of effective vaccines. In contrast to virus genetics determinants, host genetic factors with clinical impact remained unexplored until recently. The association between...

Different roles of CXCR1 and CXCR2 in HTLV-1 carriers and HTLV-1-associated myelopathy/tropical spastic paraparesis (HAM/TSP) patients

Rajaei, Taraneh; Farajifard, Hamid; Rezaee, Seyed; Azarpazhooh, Mahmoud; Mahmoudi, Mahmoud; Valizadeh, Narges; Rafatpanah, Houshang

2018 Medical Microbiology and Immunology

doi:10.1007/s00430-018-0568-8 pmid:30341468

One of the prominent features of HTLV-1-associated myelopathy/tropical spastic paraparesis (HAM/TSP) is the excessive recruitment of leukocytes to the central nervous system (CNS), which leads to an inflammatory response—with chemokines and their receptors playing the main role in this...

Immune response triggered by Trypanosoma cruzi infection strikes adipose tissue homeostasis altering lipid storage, enzyme profile and adipokine expression

González, Florencia; Villar, Silvina; Toneatto, Judith; Pacini, María; Márquez, Julia; D’Attilio, Luciano; Bottasso, Oscar; Piwien-Pilipuk, Graciela; Pérez, Ana

2018 Medical Microbiology and Immunology

doi:10.1007/s00430-018-0572-z pmid:30413884

Adipose tissue is a target of Trypanosoma cruzi infection being a parasite reservoir during the chronic phase in mice and humans. Previously, we reported that acute Trypanosoma cruzi infection in mice is linked to a severe adipose tissue loss, probably triggered by inflammation, as well as by the...

Journal Article

The monocytosis during human leptospirosis is associated with modest immune cell activation states

Raffray, Loic; Giry, Claude; Vandroux, David; Fayeulle, Stéphanie; Moiton, Marie-Pierre; Gerber, Anne; Jaffar-Bandjee, Marie-Christine; Gasque, Philippe

2018 Medical Microbiology and Immunology

doi:10.1007/s00430-018-0575-9 pmid:30542761

Leptospirosis is a life-threatening zoonotic disease and it has been hypothesized that the innate immune system fails to control the infection through ill-characterized mechanisms. The aim of this observational study was to better evaluate the activation processes of monocytes at the early stage...
