The different autophagic roads by which phagosomes travel to lysosomes.
Autophagy delivers cytoplasmic constituents, like damaged mitochondria, to lysosomes. Recently, it was noted that the same molecular machinery also regulates phagosome delivery for degradation. In this issue of The EMBO Journal, Brooks and colleagues demonstrate that KIM-1/TIM-1 receptor-mediated phagocytosis in epithelial cells does not seem to cause modification of the phagosomal membrane its...
متن کاملMembrane vesicles shed by Legionella pneumophila inhibit fusion of phagosomes with lysosomes.
When cultured in broth to the transmissive phase, Legionella pneumophila infects macrophages by inhibiting phagosome maturation, whereas replicative-phase cells are transported to the lysosomes. Here we report that the ability of L. pneumophila to inhibit phagosome-lysosome fusion correlated with developmentally regulated modifications of the pathogen's surface, as judged by its lipopolysacchar...
متن کاملOxidized phagosomal NOX2 is replenished from lysosomes
In dendritic cells, the NADPH oxidase 2 (NOX2) is recruited to the phagosomal membrane during antigen uptake. NOX2 produces reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the lumen of the phagosome which kill ingested pathogens, delay antigen breakdown and alter the peptide repertoire for presentation to T cells. How the integral membrane component of NOX2, cytochrome b558, traffics to phagosomes is incomple...
متن کاملEpidemiology of brucellosis in domestic animals caused by Brucella melitensis, Brucella suis and Brucella abortus.
Brucellosis is a disease that causes severe economic losses for livestock farms worldwide. Brucella melitensis, B. abortus and B. suis, which are transmitted between animals both vertically and horizontally, cause abortion and infertility in their primary natural hosts - goats and sheep (B. melitensis), cows (B. abortus) and sows (B. suis). Brucella spp. infect not only their preferred hosts bu...
متن کاملSecretion of listeriolysin by Brucella suis inhibits its intramacrophagic replication.
The introduction into Brucella suis 1330 of a plasmid allowing the heterologous expression of a hybrid cytolysin containing listeriolysin from Listeria monocytogenes, and its export via the Escherichia coli hemolysin secretion pathway, resulted in secretion of active listeriolysin monitored by erythrocyte lysis. In contrast to observations with the nonhemolytic control strain, the phagosomes of...
