1. Host-pathogen interactions during Campylobacter and Yersinia infections
Abstract : The innate immune system is known for protecting the host against invading pathogens, for instance enteropathogens infecting the gastrointestinal tract. The production of e.g. antimicrobial peptides, cytokines, and chemokines by innate immune cells and intestinal epithelial cells contribute to bacterial clearance. READ MORE

2. Vibrio cholerae modulates the immune defense of human gut mucosa
Abstract : The key function of innate immunity is to sense danger signals and initiate effective responses as a defense mechanism against pathogens. Simultaneously, effector responses must be regulated to avoid excessive inflammation with resulting tissue damage. READ MORE

4. Bacterial Outer Membrane Vesicles. Mediators of virulence and antibiotic resistance
Abstract : Outer membrane vesicles (OMV) have the size of nanoparticles and are released from the outer membrane of most Gram-negative bacteria. The OMV reflect the composition of the bacterial outer membrane, including lipids and virulence factors specific for the pathogen, and are involved in pathogenesis and bacterial survival. READ MORE

5. Host-Pathogen Interactions in Pseudomonas aeruginosa Invasive and Respiratory Tract Infection
Abstract : Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an opportunistic bacterium that causes debilitating infections when the immune defence is compromised. It possesses an arsenal of virulence traits to colonize most compartments of the body and is often highly resistant against commonly used antimicrobial drugs. READ MORE
