  1. 21. Host-pathogen interactions during Campylobacter and Yersinia infections

    Författare :Nayyer Taheri; Anna Fahlgren; Maria Fällman; Sun Nyunt Wai; Elena Vikström; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Campylobacter jejuni; Yersinia pseudotuberculosis; OMV; bile; temperature; proteomic;

    Sammanfattning : The innate immune system is known for protecting the host against invading pathogens, for instance enteropathogens infecting the gastrointestinal tract. The production of e.g. antimicrobial peptides, cytokines, and chemokines by innate immune cells and intestinal epithelial cells contribute to bacterial clearance. LÄS MER

  2. 22. Role of YopE and LcrH in effector translocation, HeLa cell cytotoxicity and virulence

    Författare :Margareta Aili; Roland Rosqvist; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Yersinia pseudotuberculosis; bacterial pathogenesis; YopE; LcrH; virulence; effector translocation; type III secretion; regulation; Cell and molecular biology; Cell- och molekylärbiologi;

    Sammanfattning : In order to establish an extra-cellular infection the gram-negative bacteria Yersinia pseudotuberculosis uses a type III secretion system (T3SS) to translocate a set of anti-host effectors into eukaryotic cells. The toxins disrupt signalling pathways important for phagocytosis, cytokine production and cell survival. LÄS MER

  3. 23. Timing and targeting of Type III secretion translocation of virulence effectors in Yersinia

    Författare :Sofie Ekestubbe; Åke Forsberg; Roland Rosqvist; Maria Fällman; Kurt Schesser; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Type III secretion system; virulence; translocation; Yersinia pseudotuberculosis; LcrV; YopN; effector targeting; phagocytosis inhibition; YopH; in vivo infection;

    Sammanfattning : The Type III secretion system (T3SS) is an important virulence mechanism that allows pathogenic bacteria to translocate virulence effectors directly into the cytoplasm of eukaryotic host cells to manipulate the host cells in favor of the pathogen. Enteropathogenic Yersinia pseudotuberculosis use a T3SS to translocate effectors, Yops, that prevent phagocytosis by immune cells, and is largely dependent on it to establish and sustain an infection in the lymphoid tissues of a mammalian host.

  4. 24. Antivirulent and antibiofilm salicylidene acylhydrazide complexes in solution and at interfaces

    Författare :Shoghik Hakobyan; Madeleine Ramstedt; Jean-Francois Boily; Mikael Elofsson; Marcus Textor; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Antivirulent; Antibiofilm; Hydrazones; Gallium; Pseudomonas aeruginosa; Type three secretion system; Equilibrium constant; Chemical equilibrium modelling; Spectrophotometric titration; UV-Vis;

    Sammanfattning : The growing bacterial resistance against antibiotics creates a limitation for using traditional antibiotics and requests development of new approaches for treatment of bacterial infections. Among the bacterial infections that are most difficult to treat, biofilm-associated infections are one of the most hazardous. LÄS MER

  5. 25. Towards novel antibacterials : Synthesis and identification of natural product inspired inhibitors of Chlamydia trachomatis and development of chemical probes targeting virulence of Pseudomonas aeruginosa

    Författare :Michael Saleeb; Mikael Elofsson; Anna Linusson Jonsson; Andreas Kirschning; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Antibacterials; antibiotics; small molecules; natural products; benzofuran; dihydrobenzofuran; the type III secretion system; Pseudomonas aeruginosa; Chlamydia trachomatis; phenotypic screening; high-throughput screening; surface plasmon resonance; drug discovery; bacterial toxins; enzyme inhibitors; organisk kemi; Organic Chemistry;

    Sammanfattning : Antibiotic resistance has evolved significantly to become one of the serious threats to public health today. Yet, the pipeline of new antibiotics is drying up and is lagging behind the challenging needs. LÄS MER
