Guidelines for the use and interpretation of assays for monitoring autophagy (3rd edition)

Daniel J. Klionsky, +2522 more
- 21 Jan 2016 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a set of guidelines for the selection and interpretation of methods for use by investigators who aim to examine macro-autophagy and related processes, as well as for reviewers who need to provide realistic and reasonable critiques of papers that are focused on these processes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Lymphatic filariasis and onchocerciasis.

Mark J. Taylor, +2 more
- 02 Oct 2010 - 
TL;DR: Global programmes for control and elimination have been developed to provide sustained delivery of drugs to affected communities to interrupt transmission of disease and ultimately eliminate this burden on public health.
Journal ArticleDOI

The role of endosymbiotic Wolbachia bacteria in the pathogenesis of river blindness

Amélie v. Saint André, +11 more
- 08 Mar 2002 - 
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the predominant inflammatory response in the cornea was due to species of endosymbiotic Wolbachia bacteria, and the inflammatory response induced by these bacteria was dependent on expression of functional Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) on host cells.
Book ChapterDOI

Wolbachia bacterial endosymbionts of filarial nematodes.

Mark J. Taylor, +2 more
- 01 Jan 2005 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the symbiosis of Wolbachia bacteria with filarial nematodes has been studied and the authors summarized the current understanding of the evolution of the symbiotic association together with insights into the functional basis of the interaction derived from genomic analysis.

The Wolbachia bacterial endosymbionts of filarial nematodes.

Jeremy M. Foster, +3 more
TL;DR: The contribution of Wolbachia to inflammatory-mediated pathogenesis and adverse reactions to anti-filarial drugs and the outcome of recent field trials using antibiotics as a promising new tool for the treatment of filarial infection and disease are discussed.
