1. Host-bacteria interactions : Host cell responses and bacterial pathogenesis
Sammanfattning : Helicobacter pylori colonizes the human stomach, where it causes gastritis that may develop into peptic ulcer disease or cancer when left untreated. Neisseria gonorrhoeae colonizes the urogenital tract and causes the sexually transmitted disease gonorrhea. LÄS MER
2. Bacteria-host cell interactions : Studies on initial colonization, antimicrobial peptides, and biofilms
Sammanfattning : The obligate human pathogen Neisseria meningitidis asymptomatically colonizes the upper respiratory tract, but crossing of the epithelial barrier can cause life-threatening meningitis and/or sepsis. N. LÄS MER
3. Host cell responses to Helicobacter pylori secreted factors
Sammanfattning : The infection of the human gastric mucosa by the bacterium Helicobacter pylori can lead to the development of gastritis, gastroduodenal ulcers, and cancer. The factors that determine disease development in a small percentage of infected individuals are still not fully understood. LÄS MER
4. Host responses to malaria and bacterial co-infections
Sammanfattning : The two main causes of child mortality and morbidity in Africa are malaria and invasive bacterial diseases. In addition, co-infections in sub-Saharan Africa are the rule rather than the exception. However, not much is known about the host-pathogen interaction during a concomitant infection or how it affects the outcome of disease. LÄS MER
5. Role of lactobacilli in Helicobacter pylori pathogenesis and host cell responses
Sammanfattning : Helicobacter pylori is well adapted to the harsh environment of the human stomach, allowing it to persistently colonize the gastric mucosa of at least 50% of the global population for decades. Long-term colonization induces chronic inflammation that can eventually lead to development of peptic ulcer and gastric cancer. LÄS MER
