Journal ArticleDOI

Suicidal erythrocyte death in sepsis

Daniela S. Kempe, +15 more
- 01 Mar 2007 - 
TL;DR: A novel pathophysiological mechanism leading to anemia and derangement of microcirculation during sepsis is disclosed, including exposure to plasma from septic patients triggers phosphatidylserine exposure leading to adherence to the vascular wall and clearance from circulating blood.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bacteria-derived Peptidoglycans Constitute Pathogen-associated Molecular Patterns Triggering Innate Immunity in Arabidopsis

Andrea A. Gust, +10 more
- 02 Nov 2007 - 
TL;DR: It is proposed that PGN perception systems arose independently in both lineages and are the result of convergent evolution, and it is shown that both PAMPs are perceived via different perception systems.
Journal ArticleDOI

Activity of the major staphylococcal autolysin Atl

Raja Biswas, +5 more
- 01 Jun 2006 - 
TL;DR: An atlA deletion mutant is created in S. aureus that formed large cell clusters and was biofilm-negative, and the first evidence that the amidase indeed cleaves the amide bond between N-acetyl muramic acid and L-alanine is provided.
Journal ArticleDOI

Role of staphylococcal wall teichoic acid in targeting the major autolysin Atl.

Martin Schlag, +8 more
- 01 Feb 2010 - 
TL;DR: It is shown that targeting of the amidase repeats is based on an exclusion strategy mediated by wall teichoic acid (WTA), and by preventing binding of Atl, WTA directs Atl to the cross‐wall to perform the last step of cell division, namely separation of the daughter cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

Chitosan-hyaluronic acid/nano silver composite sponges for drug resistant bacteria infected diabetic wounds

B.S. Anisha, +3 more
- 01 Nov 2013 - 
TL;DR: The results suggest that this nanocomposite sponges could be used as a potential material for wound dressing for DFU infected with antibiotic resistant bacteria if the optimal concentration of nAg exhibiting antibacterial action with least toxicity towards mammalian cells is identified.
