Mining Host-Pathogen Interactions
containing HPI information and another abstract that does not. Using a training set of pre-annotated abstracts, the system can then learn how to efficiently discriminate between these two abstract types. Moreover, the same characteristic features can be calculated for the individual sentences in the abstract. Thus, we can use the same supervised-learning approach to solve Tasks 1 and 2. Finally...
متن کاملExploring host-pathogen interactions through genome wide protein microarray analysis
During bacterial pathogenesis extensive contacts between the human and the bacterial extracellular proteomes take place. The identification of novel host-pathogen interactions by standard methods using a case-by-case approach is laborious and time consuming. To overcome this limitation, we took advantage of large libraries of human and bacterial recombinant proteins. We applied a large-scale pr...
متن کاملPerspectives Series: Host/Pathogen Interactions
The threat posed to human health by arthropod-borne bacteria is most vividly demonstrated by the devastating epidemics caused by the plague. The diversity of pathogenic bacteria spread by arthropods is probably underestimated. Recently recognized infectious diseases such as Lyme disease and ehrlichiosis are caused by bacteria transmitted by arthropods. Bacteria which alternate between arthropod...
متن کاملArrestins in host-pathogen interactions.
In the context of host-pathogen interaction, host cell receptors and signaling pathways are essential for both invading pathogens, which exploit them for their own profit, and the defending organism, which activates early mechanism of defense, known as innate immunity, to block the aggression. Because of their central role as scaffolding proteins downstream of activated receptors, β-arrestins a...
متن کاملHost-Pathogen Interactions in Tuberculosis
My presentation will focus on host-cell pathogen interactions in tuberculosis. However, I would first like offer a brief introduction to the tuberculosis disease. I believe it is important to remember that merely an estimated 5-10% of individuals exposed or infected with the Mycobacterium tuberculosis bacteria actually develop tuberculosis. In other words, the human population, as a whole, is e...
