Purification, serology and pathogenic role of the 110 kilodalton rtx hemolysins of Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae
… properties of the 110-kilodalton (110-KDa) hemolysins [hemolysin I (HlyI) and hemolysin II (HlyII)] of <i>A. pleuropneumoniae</i>. Several monoclonal antibodies (MAb) to the hemolysins were developed. An IgGl. MAb (8C2) specific for HlyII, as determined by immunoblotting, was cross-linked to …

Analysis of Vibrio parahaemolyticus Virulence Systems
… to several virulence factors, including two hemolysins and two type III secretion systems (T3SS1 and T3SS2). Herein, we compare the virulence of V. parahaemolyticus POR strains, which harbor a mutation in the T3SS needle apparatus, to the V. parahaemolyticus CAB strains, which contain …

Staphylococcus aureus as a source of antigens stimulating bovine dendritic cells and lymphocytes in vitro
… proteins, including S. aureus superantigens and hemolysins, we hypothesized the irradiated S. aureus (ISA) could drive immune cell responses. Dendritic cells (DC) were co-cultured with lymphocytes to study the cellular responses to ISA and LSA. Dendritic cells present antigens and polarize …

Genetics and physiology of motility by Photorhabdus spp
… changes in expression of antibiotics, hemolysins, proteases, and insect virulence, expression of motility genes may be co-regulated with expression of virulence enzymes in Photorhabdus. The mutants isolated in this study will be useful long-term tools for additional …

The microbiological causes of chronic osteomyelitis at the University Teaching Hospital,Lusaka
BACKGROUND: Chronic osteomyelitis is a debilitating infection of bone and its bone marrow, presenting with bone pain and an active sinus that discharges pus. It is a persistent and recurrent condition that results from infection of bone and its marrow by various microorganisms. Worldwide, …

Staphylococcus aureus virulence factors dictate host signaling pathways and immune responses
Staphylococcus aureus causes nosocomial- and community- acquired infections. This versatile pathogen expresses virulence factors (VF) that enhance establishment of infection and immune evasion. Our research focused on defining the roles of S. aureus VF on host immune responses during intracellular …
