This time-shortened work flow improves sensitivity and specificity for the identification of bacteria in bone infections independently of bacterial culturability.
Analysis of human cytomegalovirus-encoded glycoprotein US10 targeting human leucocyte antigen class I molecules reveals a multimodal strategy, resulting in a geno- and allotypic-dependent effects.
The pseudokinase Tribbles1 is expressed in human monocytes after mycobacterial challenge and can be manipulated to be host protective against mycobacterial infection, due to control of innate immune cell function, in a zebrafish tuberculosis model.
Escherichia coli exhibits sensitive chemotaxis to potassium, mediated by differential responses of Tar and Tsr chemoreceptors to intracellular pH changes induced by potassium concentration gradients.

Enteric bacteria associated with bloodstream infections are attracted to human serum through L-serine and the chemoreceptor Tsr, and in an enterohemorrhagic lesion model use chemotaxis to invade damaged vasculature.
