Staphylococcus aureus is a major human pathogen responsible for severe infections. While traditionally described as extracellular, increasing evidence establishes S. aureus as a facultative intracellular pathogen. Intracellularity contributes to immune evasion, dissemination, and antibiotic failu...
Small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) have been extensively investigated as a source of clinically relevant cargo. Alongside the secretion of EVs, such as exosomes, cells house a multitude of internal vesicles involved in various physiologic processes and metabolic activities. Herein, we developed ...
To investigate the metabolism and bioconversion of hexadecane in J31 cells, 13C-labeled hexadecane was added to the OM medium, and the intracellular flow of hexadecane in J31 cells was analyzed using the stable isotope technique via non-target metabolomics. study abstract/description
Pathogenic bacteria proliferating inside mammalian host cells need to rapidly adapt to the intracellular environment. How they achieve this and scavenge essential nutrients from the host has been an open question due to the difficulties in distinguishing between bacterial and host metabolites
Salmonella Typhimurium establishes systemic infection by replicating in host macrophages. Here we show that macrophages infected with S. Typhimurium exhibit upregulated glycolysis and decreased serine synthesis, leading to accumulation of glycolytic intermediates. The effects on...
