Model for studying bacterial adherence to epithelial cells infected with viruses.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Measles infection decreased adherence of staphylococci, streptococci, and pneumococci to cultured epithelial cells, whereas adenovirus had no effect. Rhinovirus increased staphylococcal and streptococcal adherence. Influenza A increased or decreased staphylococcal adherence at different times after infection.

The Potential Effect of Glycyrrhiza Glabra on Early Step of Influenza Virus Replication
Background and Aims: The emergence of drug-resistant influenza viruses has become a serious threat for human and animal populations. Glycyrrhiza glabra (Gg) is a traditional medicine clinically used for the treatment of viral respiratory infection symptoms in most countries. We evaluated the effects of the herb on influenza virus replication in human lung cultured cells (A549) following the det...
متن کاملStudy Break: Bacterial Cancer
Rarely, do we think of cancer as “bacterial”, such that we are often told that “cancer is NOT contagious” Persistent bacterial infections cause persistent irritation of the host’s defense systems, which when ineffective in eradication of the infection, result in a multitude of self-destructive damages. This in some cases occurs to such severity that the resu...
متن کاملSialic acid-dependent interaction of group B streptococci with influenza virus-infected cells reveals a novel adherence and invasion mechanism.
Group B streptococci (GBS) contain a capsular polysaccharide with side chains terminating in α2,3-linked sialic acids. Because of this linkage type, the sialic acids of GBS are recognised by lectins of immune cells. This interaction results in a dampening of the host immune response and thus promotes immune evasion. As several influenza A viruses (IAV) use α2,3-linked sialic acid as a receptor ...
متن کاملSalmonella‐infected crypt‐derived intestinal organoid culture system for host–bacterial interactions
The in vitro analysis of bacterial-epithelial interactions in the intestine has been hampered by a lack of suitable intestinal epithelium culture systems. Here, we report a new experimental model using an organoid culture system to study pathophysiology of bacterial-epithelial interactions post Salmonella infection. Using crypt-derived mouse intestinal organoids, we were able to visualize the i...
متن کاملImmunoprotectivity of Salmonella enterica serovar Enteritidis virulence protein, InvH, against Salmonella typhi
Objective(s):Typhoid fever is a dreadful disease of a major threat to public health in developing countries. Vaccination with bacterial immunodominant components such as surface proteins may prove as a potent alternative to live attenuated vaccines. InvH, an important part of needle complex in type three secretion system (TTSS) plays important role in efficient bacterial adherence and entry int...
