Chytridiomycosis is an emerging infectious disease of amphibians caused by the chytrid Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd). The disease has been associated with global amphibian declines and is driving the species in the wild to extinction. Using DNA microarray technology we have analysed transcript...

Changing antigenic structure such as capsule polysaccharide is a common strategy for bacterial pathogen to evade host immune system. In this regard, the recent emergence of an invasive W:2a:P1.7-2,4 ST-11 strain in New Zealand, which is an uncommon pathogenic serogroup, was investigated for its gen...

Clinical isolates of the porcine pathogen Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae often form adherent colonies on agar plates due to expression of an operon, pgaABCD, encoding a poly-N-acetylglucosamine (PGA) extracellular matrix. The adherent colony phenotype, which correlates with the ability to form a bi...

Dysregulated extravillous trophoblast invasion and proliferation are known to increase the risk of recurrent spontaneous abortion (RSA); however, the underlying mechanism remains unclear. Herein, in our retrospective observational case-control study we show that villous samples from RSA patients, co...

The gene NMB0419 of Neisseria meningitidis strain MC58 encodes a putative tetratricopeptide repeats (TPR) containing protein, which was implicated in respiratory epithelial invasion. We have accordingly sought a role for NMB0419 in meningococcal adherence and invasion of human epithelial cells using...

BACKGROUND: Lactation is extremely important for dairy cows; however, the understanding of the underlying metabolic mechanisms is very limited. This study was conducted to investigate the inherent metabolic patterns during lactation using the overall biofluid metabolomics and the...
