The Mammalian Membrane Microenvironment Regulates the Sequential Attachment of Bacteria to Host Cells

Alexandre Louis André Persat, Xavier Jean-Yves Pierrat, Zaïnebe Dhirani, Jeremy Pak Hei Wong

Pathogen attachment to host tissue is critical in the progress of many infections. Bacteria use adhesion in vivo to stabilize colonization and subsequently regulate the deployment of contact-dependent virulence traits. To specifically target host cells, th ...

Integrin-Mediated Macrophage Adhesion Promotes Lymphovascular Dissemination in Breast Cancer

Michele De Palma, Mario Leonardo Squadrito, Sina Nassiri

Lymphatic vasculature is crucial for metastasis in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC); however, cellular and molecular drivers controlling lymphovascular metastasis are poorly understood. We define a macrophage-dependent signaling cascade that facilitate ...

The heparin binding domain of von Willebrand factor binds to growth factors and promotes angiogenesis in wound healing

Jeffrey Alan Hubbell, Matthias Lütolf, Yoji Tabata

During wound healing, the distribution, availability, and signaling of growth factors (GFs) are orchestrated by their binding to extracellular matrix components in the wound microenvironment. Extracellular matrix proteins have been shown to modulate angiog ...

Resistance of echovirus 11 to ClO2 is associated with enhanced host receptor use, altered entry routes and high fitness

Tamar Kohn, Jeffrey David Jensen, Anna Carratala Ripolles, Virginie Bachmann, Qingxia Zhong, Hyunjin Shim

Waterborne viruses can exhibit resistance to common water disinfectants, yet the mechanisms that allow them to tolerate disinfection are poorly understood. Here, we generated echovirus 11 (E11) with resistance to chlorine dioxide (ClO2) by experimental evo ...

An Interferon Regulated MicroRNA Provides Broad Cell-Intrinsic Antiviral Immunity through Multihit Host-Directed Targeting of the Sterol Pathway

Mathieu Blanc

In invertebrates, small interfering RNAs are at the vanguard of cell-autonomous antiviral immunity. In contrast, antiviral mechanisms initiated by interferon (IFN) signaling predominate in mammals. Whilst mammalian IFN-induced miRNA are known to inhibit sp ...

IGF-1-containing multi-layered collagen-fibrin hybrid scaffolds for bladder tissue engineering

Jeffrey Alan Hubbell, Peter Frey, Hans Mattias Larsson, Priscilla Suhasna Maithili Briquez, Elif Vardar

Clinical success of bladder reconstructive procedures could be promoted by the availability of functional biomaterials. In this study, we have developed a multi-layered scaffold consisting of a bioactive fibrin layer laminated between two collagen sheets a ...

VE-statin/egfl7 expression in endothelial cells is regulated by a distal enhancer and a proximal promoter under the direct control of Erg and GATA-2

Friedrich Beermann

Angiogenesis is the process by which new blood vessels arise from existing ones by the budding out of endothelial cell capillaries from the luminal side of blood vessels. Blood vessel formation is essential for organ development during embryogenesis and is ...

Engineered blood and lymphatic capillaries in 3-D VEGF-fibrin-collagen matrices with interstitial flow

Melody Swartz

In vitro endothelial cell organization into capillaries is a long standing challenge of tissue engineering. We recently showed the utility of low level interstitial flow in guiding the organization of endothelial cells through a 3-D fibrin matrix-containin ...
