Enucleated L929 mouse fibroblasts support invasion and multiplication of Shigella flexneri 5a.
Invasive bacteria can induce their own uptake and specify their intracellular localization; hence it is commonly assumed that proximate modulation of host cell transcription is not required for infection. However, bacteria can also modulate, directly or indirectly, the transcription of many host cell genes, whose role in the infection may be difficult to determine by global gene expression. Is ...
متن کاملEnucleated L929 cells support invasion, differentiation, and multiplication of Trypanosoma cruzi parasites.
Cell infection with Trypanosoma cruzi, the agent of Chagas' disease, begins with the uptake of infective trypomastigotes within phagosomes and their release into the cytosol, where they transform into replicating amastigotes; the latter, in turn, differentiate into cytolytically released and infective trypomastigotes. We ask here if the T. cruzi infection program can develop in enucleated host ...
متن کاملNeutrophil antimicrobial proteins enhance Shigella flexneri adhesion and invasion.
Shigella flexneri is an enteric pathogen that causes massive inflammation and destruction of the human intestinal epithelium. Neutrophils are the first cells of the innate immune system recruited to the site of infection. These cells can attack microbes by phagocytosis, Neutrophil Extracellular Trap (NET) formation and degranulation. Here, we investigated how neutrophil degranulation affects vi...
متن کاملShigella flexneri phagosomal escape is independent of invasion.
Infections with Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium and Shigella flexneri result in mucosal inflammation in response to epithelial cell invasion and macrophage cytotoxicity. These processes are mediated by type III secretion systems encoded in homologous virulence loci in the two species, namely, Salmonella pathogenicity island 1 (SPI-1), carried in the genome, and the Shigella entry region...
متن کاملCharacterization of invasion plasmid antigen genes (ipaBCD) from Shigella flexneri.
The large invasion plasmid of Shigella flexneri M9OT-W was used to generate recombinant plasmids carrying the ipaA, -B, -C, and -D genes, whose products are associated with the entry of the bacteria into colonic epithelial cells. Complete DNA sequences of ipaB, -C, and -D were determined. The proteins predicted (62, 42, and 37 kDa, respectively) from the nucleotide sequences lack a signal-pepti...
