Serine protease espP subtype α, but not β or γ, of Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli is associated with highly pathogenic serogroups
2008 - Besides Shiga toxins (Stx), Stx-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) harbour several other putative virulence factors, including the serine protease EspP. We have investigated 214 STEC strains from …

Detection and Characterization of Fimbrial sfp Cluster in Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli O165:H25/NM from Humans and Cattle
2008 - The sfp cluster encoding Sfp fimbriae which is located in the large plasmid of sorbitol-fermenting (SF) enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) O157 (pSFO157) has been considered a unique …

Shiga Toxin-producing Escherichia coli Serogroups in Food and Patients, Germany
2008 - We compared 61 Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) serogroups from 448 food isolates with 71 STEC serogroups from 1,447 isolates from patients in Germany. Two thirds (41/61), representing …

Histone acetylation and flagellin are essential for Legionella pneumophila-induced cytokine expression
2008 - Legionella pneumophila causes severe pneumonia. Acetylation of histones is thought to be an important regulator of gene transcription, but its impact on L. pneumophila-induced expression of …

Country-wide HIV incidence study complementing HIV surveillance in Germany
2008 - Serological methods exist that allow differentiating between recent and long-standing infections in persons infected with HIV. During a pilot study in Berlin between 2005 and 2007 methodologies have …

The effect of antiretroviral treatment of different durations in primary HIV infection
2008 - Objectives: To compare immunological, virological and clinical outcomes in persons initiating combination antiretroviral therapy (cART of different durations within 6 months of seroconversion (early …

Effect of norepinephrine on colonisation and systemic spread of Salmonella enterica in infected animals: role of catecholate siderophore precursors and degradation products
2008 - Norepinephrine promotes the growth of Salmonella enterica in vitro in iron-restricted conditions imposed by the iron-binding proteins serum transferrin and egg-white ovotransferrin by facilitating the …

Motility allows S. Typhimurium to benefit from the mucosal defence
2008 - The mammalian intestine is colonized by a dense bacterial community, called microbiota. The microbiota shields from intestinal infection (colonization resistance). Recently, we have shown that …

IFNβ responses induced by intracellular bacteria or cytosolic DNA in different human cells do not require ZBP1 (DLM-1/DAI)
2008 - Intracellular bacteria and cytosolic stimulation with DNA activate type I IFN responses independently of Toll-like receptors, most Nod-like receptors and RIG-like receptors. A recent study suggested …

Salmonella infections associated with reptiles: the current situation in Europe
2008 - Salmonella infections are caused by consumption of contaminated food, person-to-person transmission, waterborne transmission and numerous environmental and animal exposures. Specifically, reptiles and …

Shiga toxin-negative attaching and effacing Escherichia coli: distinct clinical associations with bacterial phylogeny and virulence traits and inferred in-host pathogen evolution
2008 - BACKGROUND: Attaching and effacing Escherichia coli (AEEC) that lack Shiga toxin genes (stx) and the enteropathogenic E. coli adherence factor (EAF) plasmid (stx-/EAF-) are classified as atypical …

NAIP and Ipaf control Legionella pneumophila replication in human cells
2008 - In mice, different alleles of the mNAIP5 (murine neuronal apoptosis inhibitory protein-5)/mBirc1e gene determine whether macrophages restrict or support intracellular replication of Legionella …
