(MBIO, 2019-03)Biofilms are multicellular bacterial communities encased in a self-secreted extracellular matrix comprised of polysaccharides, proteinaceous fibers, and DNA. Organization of these components lends spatial organization to ...
-
(2019-03)The gastric bacterium Helicobacter pylori causes a persistent infection that is directly responsible for gastric ulcers and gastric cancer in some patients and protective against allergic and other immunological disorders ...
-
(JAIDS- Journal of Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndromes, 2019-03-01)Background: An increasing number of HIV-positive individuals now start antiretroviral therapy (ART) with high CD4 cell counts. We investigated whether this makes restoration of CD4 and CD8 cell counts and the CD4: CD8 ratio ...
-
(eLife, 2019-03-27)Immune activated T lymphocytes modulate the activity of key metabolic pathways to support the transcriptional reprograming and reshaping of cell proteomes that permits effector T cell differentiation. The present study ...

(OPEN FORUM INFECTIOUS DISEASES, 2019-04)
-
(PLOS COMPUTATIONAL BIOLOGY, 2019-04)The broadly neutralizing antibody (bnAb) VRC01 is being evaluated for its efficacy to prevent HIV-1 infection in the Antibody Mediated Prevention (AMP) trials. A secondary objective of AMP utilizes sieve analysis to ...
-
(Cancer Iinformatics, 2019-04-16)The genome-wide identification of mutated genes is an important advance in our understanding of tumor biology, but several fundamental questions remain open. How do these genes act together to promote cancer development ...
-
(MBIO, 2019-05)Helicobacter pylori is the strongest risk factor for gastric adenocarcinoma; however, most infected individuals never develop this malignancy. Strain-specific microbial factors, such as the oncoprotein CagA, as well as ...
-
(MBIO, 2019-07)Phylosymbiosis is defined as microbial community relationships that recapitulate the phylogeny of hosts. As evidence for phylosymbiosis rapidly accumulates in different vertebrate and invertebrate holobionts, a central ...
-
(2019-07)Background. Rates of influenza hospitalizations differ by age, but few data are available regarding differences in laboratory-confirmed rates among adults aged >= 65 years. Methods. We evaluated age-related differences ...
-
(Open Forum Infectious Diseases, 2019-07)Background. The US National Viral Hepatitis Action Plan depends on additional providers to expand hepatitis C virus (HCV) treatment capacity in order to achieve elimination goals. Clinical pharmacists manage treatment and ...
-
(NATURE COMMUNICATIONS, 2019-07-09)Fibrosis accompanying wound healing can drive the failure of many different organs. Activated fibroblasts are the principal determinants of post-injury pathological fibrosis along with physiological repair, making them a ...
-
(NATURE COMMUNICATIONS, 2019-07-10)TFF1, a secreted protein, plays an essential role in keeping the integrity of gastric mucosa and its barrier function. Loss of TFF1 expression in the TFF1-knockout (KO) mouse leads to a pro-inflammatory phenotype with a ...
-
(Scientific Reports, 2019-07-16)As a class, 'BET' inhibitors disrupt binding of bromodomain and extra-terminal motif (BET) proteins, BRD2, BRD3, BRD4 and BRDT, to acetylated histones preventing recruitment of RNA polymerase 2 to enhancers and promoters, ...
-
(FRONTIERS IN MICROBIOLOGY, 2019-07-23)Acinetobacter baumannii A118, a strain isolated from the blood of an infected patient, is naturally competent and unlike most clinical strains, is susceptible to a variety of different antibiotics including those usually ...
-
(Metabolites, 2019-08)Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is a heterogeneous malignancy which often develops and progresses asymptomatically. Benign oncocytomas are morphologically similar to malignant chromophobe RCC and distinguishing between these ...
-
(The Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2019-08-01)Metabolic complications relating to complex effects of viral and immune-mediated mechanisms are now a focus of clinical care among persons living with human immunodeficiency virus (PLHIV), and obesity is emerging as a ...
-
(Human Vaccines & Immunotherapeutics, 2019-08-03)Objective: The primary aim of this study is to assess and characterize correlates of human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine series completion among young adult women evaluated by gynecological (GYN) providers at a single ...
-
(Frontiers in Immunology, 2019-08-13)Multiple effector layers in the immune system ensure an optimal temporal and spatial distribution of immune defense. Cytotoxic innate lymphoid natural killers (NK) and adaptive CD8(+) T lymphocytes (CTL) interact to elicit ...
-
(Journal for Immunotherapy of Cancer, 2019-08-14)Background Prostate cancer is poorly responsive to immune checkpoint inhibition, yet a combination with radiotherapy may enhance the immune response. In this study, we combined radiotherapy with immune checkpoint inhibition ...
