- 1From: PLoS Pathogens. (Vol. 7, Issue 5) Peer-ReviewedEndosymbiotic Wolbachia bacteria are potent modulators of pathogen infection and transmission in multiple naturally and artificially infected insect species, including important vectors of human pathogens. Anopheles...
- 2From: PLoS Pathogens. (Vol. 7, Issue 5) Peer-ReviewedThe signaling of Toll-like receptors (TLRs) is the host's first line of defense against microbial invasion. The mitochondrion is emerging as a critical platform for antiviral signal transduction. The regulatory role of...
- 3From: PLoS Pathogens. (Vol. 7, Issue 5) Peer-ReviewedDuring infection Neisseria meningitidis (Nm) encounters multiple environments within the host, which makes rapid adaptation a crucial factor for meningococcal survival. Despite the importance of invasion into the...
- 4From: PLoS Pathogens. (Vol. 7, Issue 5) Peer-ReviewedHelicobacter pylori (Hp) injects the CagA effector protein into host epithelial cells and induces growth factor-like signaling, perturbs cell-cell junctions, and alters host cell polarity. This enables Hp to grow as...

A large and intact viral particle penetrates the endoplasmic reticulum membrane to reach the cytosol
Non-enveloped viruses penetrate host membranes to infect cells. A cell-based assay was used to probe the endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-to-cytosol membrane transport of the non-enveloped SV40. We found that, upon ER... - 6From: PLoS Pathogens. (Vol. 7, Issue 5) Peer-ReviewedMany eukaryotic developmental and cell fate decisions that are effected post-transcriptionally involve RNA binding proteins as regulators of translation of key mRNAs. In malaria parasites (Plasmodium spp.), the...
- 7From: PLoS Pathogens. (Vol. 7, Issue 5) Peer-ReviewedStreptococcus pyogenes is a Gram-positive human pathogen that is recognized by yet unknown pattern recognition receptors (PRRs). Engagement of these receptor molecules during infection with S. pyogenes, a largely...
- 8From: PLoS Pathogens. (Vol. 7, Issue 5) Peer-ReviewedThe Plasmodium falciparum erythrocyte membrane protein 1 (PfEMP1) family plays a central role in antigenic variation and cytoadhesion of P. falciparum infected erythrocytes. PfEMP1 proteins/var genes are classified into...
- 9From: PLoS Pathogens. (Vol. 7, Issue 5) Peer-ReviewedAdaptive immunity to Mycobacterium tuberculosis controls progressive bacterial growth and disease but does not eradicate infection. Among [CD4.sup.+] T cells in the lungs of M. tuberculosis-infected mice, we observed...
- 10From: PLoS Pathogens. (Vol. 7, Issue 5) Peer-ReviewedDifferentiation of hyphae into specialized infection structures, known as appressoria, is a common feature of plant pathogenic fungi that penetrate the plant cuticle. Appressorium formation in U. maydis is triggered by...
- 11From: PLoS Pathogens. (Vol. 7, Issue 5) Peer-ReviewedCellular and viral S-adenosylmethionine-dependent methyltransferases are involved in many regulated processes such as metabolism, detoxification, signal transduction, chromatin remodeling, nucleic acid processing, and...
- 12From: PLoS Pathogens. (Vol. 7, Issue 5) Peer-ReviewedDNA damage resulting from intrinsic or extrinsic sources activates DNA damage responses (DDRs) centered on protein kinase signaling cascades. The usual consequences of inducing DDRs include the activation of cell cycle...
- 13From: PLoS Pathogens. (Vol. 7, Issue 5) Peer-ReviewedKaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) establishes a latent infection in the host following an acute infection. Reactivation from latency contributes to the development of KSHV-induced malignancies, which...
- 14From: PLoS Pathogens. (Vol. 7, Issue 5) Peer-ReviewedType IV secretion systems (T4SS) are used by Gram-negative bacteria to translocate protein and DNA substrates across the cell envelope and into target cells. Translocation across the outer membrane is achieved via a...
- 15From: PLoS Pathogens. (Vol. 7, Issue 5) Peer-ReviewedEpstein Barr virus (EBV) exhibits a distinct tropism for both B cells and epithelial cells. The virus persists as a latent infection of memory B cells in healthy individuals, but a role for infection of normal...
- 16From: PLoS Pathogens. (Vol. 7, Issue 5) Peer-ReviewedHuman blood V[gamma]9/V[delta]2 T cells, monocytes and neutrophils share a responsiveness toward inflammatory chemokines and are rapidly recruited to sites of infection. Studying their interaction in vitro and relating...
- 17From: PLoS Pathogens. (Vol. 7, Issue 5) Peer-ReviewedOver the last decade a significant number of studies have highlighted the central role of host antimicrobial (or defence) peptides in modulating the response of innate immune cells to pathogen-associated ligands. In...
- 18From: PLoS Pathogens. (Vol. 7, Issue 5) Peer-ReviewedInfluenza A viruses are important pathogens that cause acute respiratory diseases and annual epidemics in humans. Macrophages recognize influenza A virus infection with their pattern recognition receptors, and are...
- 19From: PLoS Pathogens. (Vol. 7, Issue 5) Peer-ReviewedPlant viruses induce a spectrum of symptoms on infected plants, including mosaics (or mottles), ringspots, and local lesions. The mechanism of host:virus interactions responsible for phenotypic changes has largely...
- 20From: PLoS Pathogens. (Vol. 7, Issue 5) Peer-ReviewedLymphadenopathy is a hallmark of acute infection with Borrelia burgdorferi, a tick-borne spirochete and causative agent of Lyme borreliosis, but the underlying causes and the functional consequences of this lymph node...
