Pathogens Penetrating the Central Nervous System: Infection Pathways and the Cellular and Molecular Mechanisms of Invasion
Samantha J. Dando,Alan Mackay-Sim,Robert Norton,Bart J. Currie,James Anthony St John,Jenny Ekberg,Jenny Ekberg,Michael R. Batzloff,Glen C. Ulett,Ifor R. Beacham +9 more
TL;DR: Recent data regarding mechanisms of bacterial translocation from the nasal mucosa to the brain are focused on, which represents a little explored pathway of bacterial invasion but has been proposed as being particularly important in explaining how infection with Burkholderia pseudomallei can result in melioidosis encephalomyelitis.
Journal ArticleDOI
CNS infection and immune privilege
TL;DR: The consequences of immune privilege in the context of CNS infections are reviewed and whether immune privilege may provide protection for certain pathogens and promote their latency is asked.
Journal ArticleDOI
Chlamydia muridarum infection-induced destruction of male germ cells and sertoli cells is partially prevented by Chlamydia major outer membrane protein-specific immune CD4 cells
Alexander P. Sobinoff,Samantha J. Dando,Kate A. Redgrove,Jessie M. Sutherland,Simone J. Stanger,Charles W. Armitage,Peter Timms,Eileen A. McLaughlin,Kenneth W. Beagley +8 more
TL;DR: The data suggest that chlamydial infection adversely affects spermatogenesis and male fertility, and that vaccination can potentially prevent the spread of infection and these adverse outcomes.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Human Ureaplasma Species as Causative Agents of Chorioamnionitis
TL;DR: The information presented within this review confirms that Ureaplasma spp.
Journal ArticleDOI
Molecular and Structural Characterization of a Novel Escherichia coli Interleukin Receptor Mimic Protein

TL;DR: A comprehensive analysis to define the regulation, structure, function, and immunogenicity of recently identified UPEC vaccine candidate C1275 shows that IrmA is a small UPEC protein that forms a unique domain-swapped dimer with structural mimicry to several human cytokine receptors.
