Commensal Microbes: The Frenemy Within
As part of their symbiotic association with humans, intestinal bacteria sometimes need and sometimes lend a helping hand. In this Select, we examine how commensal microorganisms or the inflammation they produce cause undesirable outcomes, such as the development of type 2 diabetes or cancer. In addition, we see how commensal bacteria can receive assistance in colonization from resident phages a...
متن کاملOf inflammasomes and pathogens – sensing of microbes by the inflammasome
Inflammasomes are signalling platforms that sense a diverse range of microbial products and also a number of stress and damage associated endogenous signals. Inflammasome complexes can be formed by members of the Nod-like receptor family or the PYHIN family member AIM2. Upon formation, inflammasomes trigger proteolysis of caspase-1, which subsequently leads to a potent inflammatory response thr...
متن کاملCommensal microbes provide first line defense against Listeria monocytogenes infection
Listeria monocytogenes is a foodborne pathogen that causes septicemia, meningitis and chorioamnionitis and is associated with high mortality. Immunocompetent humans and animals, however, can tolerate high doses of L. monocytogenes without developing systemic disease. The intestinal microbiota provides colonization resistance against many orally acquired pathogens, and antibiotic-mediated deplet...
متن کاملCommensal microbes, immune reactivity and childhood inflammatory bowel disease
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is characterized by chronic and relapsing intestinal inflammation of unknown etiology, but immune activation by the commensal microbiota probably plays a major role. The two major categories of IBD are ulcerative colitis and Crohn’s disease. One fifth of the cases present in childhood and Sweden has a high and rising incidence of pediatric IBD. The aim of this t...
متن کاملEvolutionary Game between Commensal and Pathogenic Microbes in Intestinal Microbiota
The human intestinal microbiota plays a fundamental role in host health and is associated with many diseases when the homeostasis is disturbed. Although recent achievements in metagenomic sequencing have begun to reveal the variety of microbial composition associated with healthy and disease states, species-specific interactions and systematic dynamics still pose a great challenge to resolve th...
