- 1From: PLoS Pathogens. (Vol. 3, Issue 4) Peer-ReviewedThe third author's name was incorrectly listed as Claire J. Hoving. The correct name is J. Claire Hoving. This correction note may be found online at doi:10.1371/journal.ppat.0030037. Published April 27, 2007....
- 2From: PLoS Pathogens. (Vol. 3, Issue 4) Peer-ReviewedReceptor Ser/Thr protein kinases are candidates for sensors that govern developmental changes and disease processes of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), but the functions of these kinases are not established. Here, we...
- 3From: PLoS Pathogens. (Vol. 3, Issue 4) Peer-ReviewedSecondary metabolites, including toxins and melanins, have been implicated as virulence attributes in invasive aspergillosis. Although not definitively proved, this supposition is supported by the decreased virulence of...
- 4From: PLoS Pathogens. (Vol. 3, Issue 4) Peer-ReviewedStaphylococcus epidermidis and Staphylococcus aureus are leading causes of hospital-acquired infections that have become increasingly difficult to treat due to the prevalence of antibiotic resistance in these organisms....
- 5From: PLoS Pathogens. (Vol. 3, Issue 4) Peer-ReviewedIntroduction Individual susceptibility to infectious disease, such as HIV-1, is strongly influenced by the genetic profile of the host. Allelic variants of the human major histocompatibility complex (human leukocyte...
- 6From: PLoS Pathogens. (Vol. 3, Issue 4) Peer-ReviewedOver 200 million people have, and another 600 million are at risk of contracting, schistosomiasis, one of the major neglected tropical diseases. Transmission of this infection, which is caused by helminth parasites of...
- 7From: PLoS Pathogens. (Vol. 3, Issue 4) Peer-ReviewedInfection with HIV-1 perturbs homeostasis of human T cell subsets, leading to accelerated immunologic deterioration. While studying changes in [CD4.sup.+] memory and naive T cells during HIV-1 infection, we found that a...
- 8From: PLoS Pathogens. (Vol. 3, Issue 4) Peer-ReviewedThe relationship between parasite fitness and virulence has been the object of experimental and theoretical studies often with conflicting conclusions. Here, we provide direct experimental evidence that viral fitness and...
- 9From: PLoS Pathogens. (Vol. 3, Issue 4) Peer-ReviewedThe main function attributed to the Rev proteins of immunodeficiency viruses is the shuttling of viral RNAs containing the Rev responsive element (RRE) via the CRM-1 export pathway from the nucleus to the cytoplasm. This...
- 10From: PLoS Pathogens. (Vol. 3, Issue 4) Peer-Reviewed
A novel TLR4-mediated signaling pathway leading to IL-6 responses in human bladder epithelial cells.
The vigorous cytokine response of immune cells to Gram-negative bacteria is primarily mediated by a recognition molecule, Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4), which recognizes lipopolysaccharicle (LPS) and initiates a series of... - 11From: PLoS Pathogens. (Vol. 3, Issue 4) Peer-ReviewedCurrent antiretroviral therapy is effective in suppressing but not eliminating HIV-1 infection. Understanding the source of viral persistence is essential for developing strategies to eradicate HIV-1 infection. We...
