Overcoming staph infections is hardwired Several evolutionarily conserved components of antistaphylococcal immunity have been identified, using Drosophila as a model organism. However, no vertebrate ortholog has identified for the Toll ligand Spaetzle, which plays key role in controlling gram-positive infection flies. Hepburn et al. now NGF-β functional equivalent to Spaetzle vertebrates. acts paracrine “alarmin” orchestrating macrophage and neutrophil responses S. aureus infection. People...

The human gut microbiome includes beneficial, commensal and pathogenic bacteria that possess antimicrobial resistance (AMR) genes exchange these predominantly through conjugative plasmids. Escherichia coli is a significant component of the gastrointestinal typically non-pathogenic in this niche. In contrast, extra-intestinal E. (ExPEC) including ST131 may occupy other environments like urinary tract or bloodstream where they express enabling AMR host cell adhesion type 1 fimbriae. extent to...
