H2-M3-restricted presentation of N-formyl methionine (f-Met) peptides to CD8(+) T cells provides a mechanism for selective recognition of bacterial infection. In this report we demonstrate that Listeria monocytogenes infection induces distinct CD8(+) T cell populations specific for each of the known Listeria-derived formyl methionine peptides presented by M3. The sum H2-M3-restricted, Listeria-...
Listeria monocytogenes is a gram-positive coccobacillus that produces infections in both the normal and the compromised host. Symptomatic bacteremia and pulmonary infection or meningitis are the most common clinical presentations in adults. According to a current review of the literature, Listeria is a rare bacteria that may produce spontaneous bacterial peritonitis (23 cases reported). Listeri...
The control of Listeria monocytogenes infection depends on the rapid activation of the innate immune system, likely through Toll-like receptors (TLR), since mice deficient for the common adapter protein of TLR signaling, myeloid differentiation factor 88 (MyD88), succumb to Listeria infection. In order to test whether TLR2 is involved in the control of infections, we compared the host response ...
Listeriolysin is a 60-kDa protein which allows the growth of Listeria monocytogenes in macrophages and other cells and has been shown to be a virulence factor in Listeria infections of adult mice. However, the neonate and fetoplacental unit are major populations susceptible to listeriosis. Recent data indicate that macrophage and T-cell functions are markedly inhibited in these young mice, and ...
BACKGROUND Despite a decreasing incidence of listeriosis in the United States, molecular subtyping has increased the number of recognized outbreaks. In September 2000, the New York City Department of Health identified a cluster of infections caused by Listeria monocytogenes isolates with identical molecular subtypes by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) and ribotyping. METHODS To determi...
The stimulation of interferon (IFN)-gamma by interleukin (IL)-12 has been shown to provide protection from intracellular pathogens such as Listeria monocytogenes. Tumor necrosis factor (TNF) is also a major player in the resolution of Listeria infections and is suggested to have more global effects than can be explained by the induction of IFN-gamma alone. Since IL-18 synergizes with IL-12 to i...
: Listeriosis is predominantly a foodborne illness, with sporadic and outbreak-related cases tied to consumption of food contaminated with listeria (Listeria monocytogenes). The incidence of listeriosis associated with pregnancy is approximately 13 times higher than in the general population. Maternal infection may present as a nonspecific, flu-like illness with fever, myalgia, backache, and he...
Listeria monocytogenes is a bacterial pathogen causing severe foodborne infections in humans and animals. Listeria can enter into host cells and survive and multiply therein, due to an arsenal of virulence determinants encoded in different loci on the chromosome. Several key Listeria virulence genes are clustered in Listeria pathogenicity island 1. This important locus also contains orfX (lmo02...
Due to its multiple roles for the proliferation and pathogenicity of many microbes on the one hand and via modulation of immune effector functions on the other hand the control over iron homeostasis is thought to play a decisive role in the course of infections. Diversion of cellular iron traffic is considered as an important defense mechanism of macrophages to reduce metal availability for int...
<p>Bakteri Listeria monocytogenes (L. monocytogenes) merupakan salah satu patogen food-borne penyebab listeriosis dengan prevalensi rendah namun fatality tinggi sebagai pencemar makanan. Listeriosis penyakit infeksius yang menyebabkan aborsi, meningitis, dan septikemia; cenderung lebih fatal pada kelompok populasi ibu hamil, bayi, lansia, serta penderita immunodefisiensi. Meskipun kasus i...
