Toll-Like Receptor 4 Contributes to Colitis Development but Not to Host Defense during Citrobacter rodentium Infection in Mice

TL;DR: Impaired TLR4-mediated responses against this A/E pathogen are not host protective and are ultimately maladaptive to the host, contributing to both the morbidity and the pathology seen during infection.
Journal ArticleDOI

Disruption of the Salmonella-Containing Vacuole Leads to Increased Replication of Salmonella enterica Serovar Typhimurium in the Cytosol of Epithelial Cells

TL;DR: The requirement of the host cell endosomal system for maintenance of the SCV is demonstrated and that loss of this compartment allows increased replication of serovar Typhimurium in the cytosol of epithelial cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

Enteropathogenic Escherichia coli translocated intimin receptor, Tir, requires a specific chaperone for stable secretion.

TL;DR: Results indicate that CesT is a Tir chaperone that may act as an anti‐degradation factor by specifically binding to its amino‐terminus, forming a multimeric stabilized complex.
Journal ArticleDOI

The intestinal microbiota plays a role in Salmonella-induced colitis independent of pathogen colonization.

TL;DR: There is a strong correlation between the intestinal microbiota composition before infection and susceptibility to Salmonella-induced colitis, and members of the Bacteroidetes phylum were present at significantly higher levels in mice resistant to colitis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Phage display: applications, innovations, and issues in phage and host biology.

TL;DR: In the 7 years since the first publications describing phage-displayed peptide libraries, phage display has been successfully employed in a variety of research and the limitations and considerable potential of this important technology are reviewed.
