Molecular characterization of the acute inflammatory response to infections with gram-negative versus gram-positive bacteria.
Sepsis caused by gram-negative bacteria and that caused by gram-positive bacteria often manifest similar clinical features. We investigated plasma proinflammatory cytokine profiles in patients with sepsis due to gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria and studied the cytokine production and differential gene regulation of leukocytes stimulated ex vivo with Escherichia coli lipopolysaccharide o...
متن کاملBacteriocins of gram-positive bacteria.
In recent years, a group of antibacterial proteins produced by gram-positive bacteria have attracted great interest in their potential use as food preservatives and as antibacterial agents to combat certain infections due to gram-positive pathogenic bacteria. They are ribosomally synthesized peptides of 30 to less than 60 amino acids, with a narrow to wide antibacterial spectrum against gram-po...
متن کاملHyaluronidases of Gram-positive bacteria.
Bacterial hyaluronidases, enzymes capable of breaking down hyaluronate, are produced by a number of pathogenic Gram-positive bacteria that initiate infections at the skin or mucosal surfaces. Since reports of the hyaluronidases first appeared, there have been numerous suggestions as to the role of the enzyme in the disease process. Unlike some of the other more well studied virulence factors, m...
متن کاملSynthesis and Characterization of Novel Antibacterial PDDA/Honey Nanofiber Against Gram-Positive and Gram-Negative Bacteria
Nanomaterials are increasingly used to the targeting of gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria as an alternative to antibiotics. Bacterial infections are a major cause of chronic infections and mortality. People requirement for new materials for pathogenic bacteria treatment. It seems that nanomaterial-based strategies can be resolving this problem. In this research, improved antibacterial na...
متن کاملResponse of Caenorhabditis elegans during subsequent infections with Gram positive and Gram negative bacteria
Background The nematode Caenorhabditis elegans is one of the popular model hosts for the study of the evolutionarily conserved mechanism of microbial pathogenesis and innate immunity. C. elegans can be effectively used to study the dynamics of polymicrobial infections. Proteus mirabilis, an opportunistic pathogen, does not cause death in C. elegans. In this study the C. elegans was pre-infected...
