Journal ArticleDOI

Secretory IgA: Linking microbes, maternal health, and infant health through human milk.

TL;DR: In this paper , the authors highlight these new findings in the context of the critical early-life window and propose outstanding areas of study that will be key to harnessing the benefits of SIgA to support healthy immune development during infancy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Long-term survival of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium reveals an infectious state that is underrepresented on laboratory media containing bile salts.

TL;DR: Cells in desiccated Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium rdar (red, dry, and rough) morphotype colonies were examined for culturability and infectivity after 30 months and were mildly attenuated compared to the infectivity of freshly grown cells.
Patent

Effectors of innate immunity determination

TL;DR: In this paper, a method of identifying a polynucleotide or pattern of polyn nucleotides regulated by one or more sepsis or inflammatory inducing agents and inhibited by a peptide is described.
Posted ContentDOI

Accurate identification and quantification of commensal microbiota bound by host immunoglobulins

TL;DR: A detailed IgA-Seq protocol to accurately isolate IgA -bound taxa from intestinal samples is provided and novel probability-based scores that adjust for the compositional nature of relative abundance data to accurately quantify taxon-level IgA binding are demonstrated.
