melanoma antigen expression and metastatic ability of mutant b16 melanoma clones.the biological functions of murine melanoma-associated antigens recognized by monoclonal antibodies (mabs) (m562, m622 and m2590) were examined by using mutant clones which differed in their degree of expression of these antigens. four clones of high expressors of 3 types of antigen (mea group), 5 clones of low or non-expressors of m562- and m622-recognizing antigens (meb group) and 4 clones of non-expressor of gm3 recognized by m2590 (mec group) were used. attachment of these clones to componen ...20113053466
dermal, subcutaneous, and tendon xanthomas: diagnostic markers for specific lipoprotein disorders.many patients with lipoprotein disorders are at increased risk for the development of premature atherosclerosis and, less commonly, other disorders that cause systemic morbidity. in some of these patients, xanthomas also develop and provide cutaneous markers for the lipoprotein disorder. as advances in molecular biology refine our understanding of lipoprotein metabolism, it has become increasingly clear that several types of xanthomas are associated with specific disease states. this article pre ...20113042820
[multilevel structure isolation using modules based on the example of thoracic radiography].conventional chest radiographs were digitized and processed by multilevel band pass filtering. by this procedure different structural components are isolated according to their local spatial frequencies. in chest radiographs a textural component can be separated from a skeletal component. evaluation of radiological images is facilitated because changes can be looked for at relevant levels. a reconstruction of the image is possible, using different weighting factors to enhance interesting structu ...20113025963

[orthodontic and surgical approach to mandibular prognathia. prevention of recurrences].the authors emphasize the necessity for a combined orthodontic and surgical approach to the problems posed by the treatment of mandibular prognathia. they feel that the major source of recurrences is related to the alveolar changes which accompany the new basal maxillo-mandibular relationship and the resultant modifications in muscular equilibrium. the prevention of recurrences must therefore take into account the prediction of adaptive remodelling of the alveolar processes.1983272713
neonatal shock in the first postnatal day.advances in neonatal medicine have markedly reduced mortality in preterm infants. current emphasis should be placed on early detection and treatment of neonatal hypotension and shock. ideal clinical management includes perinatal recognition of low birth weight infants at risk for hypotension. all critically ill preterm infants should be closely monitored for tachycardia, hypotension, and/or decreased urinary output. by use of noninvasive blood pressure screening techniques, hypotensive infants m ...1983347923

type iii secretion system translocon component eseb forms filaments on and mediates autoaggregation of and biofilm formation by edwardsiella tarda.the type iii secretion system (t3ss) of edwardsiella tarda plays an important role in infection by translocating effector proteins into host cells. eseb, a component required for effector translocation, is reported to mediate autoaggregation of e. tarda. in this study, we demonstrate that eseb forms filamentous appendages on the surface of e. tarda and is required for biofilm formation by e. tarda in dulbecco's modified eagle's medium (dmem). biofilm formation by e. tarda in dmem does not requir ...201526116669
rna-seq liver transcriptome analysis reveals an activated mhc-i pathway and an inhibited mhc-ii pathway at the early stage of vaccine immunization in zebrafish.zebrafish (danio rerio) is a prominent vertebrate model of human development and pathogenic disease and has recently been utilized to study teleost immune responses to infectious agents threatening the aquaculture industry. in this work, to clarify the host immune mechanisms underlying the protective effects of a putative vaccine and improve its immunogenicity in the future efforts, high-throughput rna sequencing technology was used to investigate the immunization-related gene expression pattern ...201222805612
edwardsiella tarda mlic, a lysozyme inhibitor that participates in pathogenesis in a manner that parallels ivy.edwardsiella tarda, a bacterial pathogen to farmed fish as well as humans, possesses the genes of two lysozyme inhibitors, ivy and mlic (ivy(et) and mlic(et)). we recently studied ivyet and found it to be implicated in e. tarda virulence. in the present study, we characterized mlic(et) in comparison with ivy(et) in a turbot model. mlic(et) contains the fwskg motif and two cysteines (c33 and c98) that are highly conserved in subgroup 1 mlics but are of unknown functional importance. to examine th ...201425404031
edwardsiella tarda hfq: impact on host infection and global protein expression.hfq is an rna-binding protein that plays an important role in many cellular processes. in this study, we examined the biological effect of the hfq of edwardsiella tarda, a severe fish pathogen with a broad host range that includes humans. to facilitate the study, a markerless hfq in-frame deletion wild type, txhfq, was constructed. compared to the wild type tx01, txhfq exhibited (i) retarded planktonic and biofilm growth, (ii) decreased resistance against oxidative stress, (iii) attenuated overa ...201424568370
edwardsiella tarda esce (orf13 protein) is a type iii secretion system-secreted protein that is required for the injection of effectors, secretion of translocators, and pathogenesis in fish.the type iii secretion system (t3ss) of edwardsiella tarda is crucial for its intracellular survival and pathogenesis in fish. the orf13 gene (esce) of e. tarda is located 84 nucleotides (nt) upstream of esrc in the t3ss gene cluster. we found that esce is secreted and translocated in a t3ss-dependent manner and that amino acids 2 to 15 in the n terminus were required for a completely functional t3ss in e. tarda. deletion of esce abolished the secretion of t3ss translocators, as well as the secr ...201526459509
edwardsiella tarda ivy, a lysozyme inhibitor that blocks the lytic effect of lysozyme and facilitates host infection in a manner that is dependent on the conserved cysteine residue.edwardsiella tarda is a gram-negative bacterial pathogen with a broad host range that includes fish and humans. in this study, we examined the activity and function of the lysozyme inhibitor ivy (named ivyet) identified in the pathogenic e. tarda strain tx01. ivyet possesses the ivy signature motif ckphdc in the form of (82)cqphnc(87) and contains several highly conserved residues, including a tryptophan (w55). for the purpose of virulence analysis, an isogenic tx01 mutant, txivy, was created. t ...201323817616
intramacrophage infection reinforces the virulence of edwardsiella tarda.edwardsiella tarda is an important pathogenic bacterium that can replicate in macrophages. however, how the intramacrophage infection process affects the virulence of this bacterium is essentially unknown. here, we show that e. tarda replicates and induces a caspase-1-dependent cell pyroptosis in a murine macrophage model. via pyroptosis, intracellular e. tarda escapes to the extracellular milieu, forming a unique bacterial population. being different from the bacteria cultured alone, this uniqu ...201626953340
edwardsiella tarda-induced inhibition of apoptosis: a strategy for intracellular survival.edwardsiella tarda is a gram-negative bacterial pathogen that can infect a wide range of freshwater and marine fish. one salient feature of e. tarda is the ability to survive and replicate in various host cells. in this study, we observed that e. tarda replicated robustly in the zebrafish cell line zf4, and that e. tarda-infected cells exhibited no detectable signs of apoptosis. global transcriptome analysis and quantitative real-time rt-pcr revealed that e. tarda infection generally significant ...201627471679
sialic acid utilization by cronobacter sakazakii.the cronobacter genus is composed of seven species, and can cause infections in all age groups. of particular concern is c. sakazakii, as this species is strongly associated with severe and often fatal cases of necrotizing enterocolitis and meningitis in neonates and infants. whole genome sequencing has revealed that the nanakt gene cluster required for the utilisation of exogenous sialic acid is unique to the c. sakazakii species (esa_03609-13).sialic acid is found in breast milk, infant formul ...201323706082
identification and functional characterization of the novel edwardsiella tarda effector esej.edwardsiella tarda is a gram-negative enteric pathogen that causes hemorrhagic septicemia in fish and gastro- and extraintestinal infections in humans. the type iii secretion system (t3ss) of e. tarda has been identified as a key virulence factor that contributes to pathogenesis in fish. however, little is known about the associated effectors translocated by this t3ss. in this study, by comparing the profile of secreted proteins of the wild-type ppd130/91 and its t3ss atpase δesan mutant, we ide ...201525667268
near-drowning-associated pneumonia with bacteremia caused by coinfection with methicillin-susceptible staphylococcus aureus and edwardsiella tarda in a healthy white man: a case report.edwardsiella tarda is an enterobacteriaceae found in aquatic environments. extraintestinal infections caused by edwardsiella tarda in humans are rare and occur in the presence of some risk factors. as far as we know, this is the first case of near-drowning-associated pneumonia with bacteremia caused by coinfection with methicillin-susceptible staphylococcus aureus and edwardsiella tarda in a healthy patient.201627423181
