Journal ArticleDOI
Molecular and physiological comparisons between Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Saccharomyces boulardii
Juliana Lopes Rangel Fietto,Raquel Silva Araújo,Frederico N Valadão,Luciano Gomes Fietto,Rogélio Lopes Brandão,Maria José Neves,Fátima de Cássia Oliveira Gomes,Jacques Robert Nicoli,Ieso de Miranda Castro +8 more
TL;DR: Results obtained in this study show that S. boulardii is genetically very close or nearly identical to S. cerevisiae, however, it shows a very different behavior, particularly in relation to growth yield and resistance to temperature and acidic stresses, which are important characteristics for a microorganism to be used as a probiotic.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bioleaching of zinc and nickel from silicates using Aspergillus niger cultures
Ieso de Miranda Castro,Juliana Lopes Rangel Fietto,Reinaldo Xisto Vieira,Maria José Magalhães Trópia,Lígia Maria Moreira de Campos,Eucler B. Paniago,Rogélio Lopes Brandão +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the role of bacteria from Bacillus and Pseudomonas and fungi from the genera Aspergillus and Penicillium in the leaching process of two different silicates (calamine and garnierite) was investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Intracellular Signal Triggered by Cholera Toxin in Saccharomyces boulardii and Saccharomyces cerevisiae
Rogélio Lopes Brandão,Ieso de Miranda Castro,Eduardo Alves Bambirra,Sheila Coutinho Amaral,Luciano Gomes Fietto,Maria José Magalhães Trópia,Maria José Neves,Raquel Gouvêa dos Santos,Newton C. M. Gomes,Jacques Robert Nicoli +9 more
TL;DR: The requirement of CT subunit B for both the cAMP signal and trehalase activation indicates the presence of a specific receptor on the yeasts able to bind to the toxin, a situation similar to that observed for mammalian cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: These particular genome characteristics of C. pseudotuberculosis, as well as its acquired virulence factors in pathogenicity islands, provide evidence of its lifestyle and of the pathogenic pathways used by this pathogen in the infection process.
Journal ArticleDOI
Adhesion to the yeast cell surface as a mechanism for trapping pathogenic bacteria by Saccharomyces probiotics
Fabiana C. P. Tiago,Flaviano S. Martins,Éricka Lorenna de Sales e Souza,Paulo Filemon Paolucci Pimenta,Helena R. C. Araújo,Ieso de Miranda Castro,Rogélio Lopes Brandão,J R Nicoli +7 more
TL;DR: Electron microscopy showed that the phenomenon of yeast-bacteria adhesion occurred both in vitro and in vivo (in the digestive tract of dixenic mice), and some pathogenic bacteria were captured on the surface of Saccharomyces boulardii, SacCharomyces cerevisiae UFMG 905 and Saccharomeces Cerevisiae BY4741, thus preventing their adhesion to specific receptors on the intestinal epithelium and their subsequent invasion of the host.
