    Description: Brucella abortus, a mammalian pathogen, and Rhizobium meliloti, a phylogenetically related plant symbiont, establish chronic infections in their respective hosts. Here a highly conserved B. abortus homolog of the R. meliloti bacA gene, which encodes a putative cytoplasmic membrane transport protein required for symbiosis, was identified. An isogenic B. abortus bacA mutant exhibited decreased survival in macrophages and greatly accelerated clearance from experimentally infected mice compared to the virulent parental strain. Thus, the bacA gene product is critical for the maintenance of two very diverse host-bacterial relationships.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉LeVier, K -- Phillips, R W -- Grippe, V K -- Roop, R M 2nd -- Walker, G C -- GM31030/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2000 Mar 31;287(5462):2492-3.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biology, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge, MA 02139, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/10741969" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: A single germ line gene mutation at a tumor susceptibility locus in a rodent model of hereditary human renal cancer caused a 70-fold increase in susceptibility to chemical carcinogenesis. A carcinogen that targeted both renal epithelial and mesenchymal cells caused an increase in tumors of epithelial origin in susceptible animals; the number of carcinogen-induced mesenchymal tumors was unaffected by the presence of the mutation at the susceptibility locus. Thus, this mutation defines a genetic locus for susceptibility to carcinogen-induced tumors and modulation of carcinogen susceptibility by this locus exhibits cell-type specificity.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Walker, C -- Goldsworthy, T L -- Wolf, D C -- Everitt, J -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1992 Mar 27;255(5052):1693-5.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Chemical Industry Institute of Toxicology, Research Triangle Park, NC 27709.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/1553556" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Protein aggregation is an established pathogenic mechanism in Alzheimer's disease, but little is known about the initiation of this process in vivo. Intracerebral injection of dilute, amyloid-beta (Abeta)-containing brain extracts from humans with Alzheimer's disease or beta-amyloid precursor protein (APP) transgenic mice induced cerebral beta-amyloidosis and associated pathology in APP transgenic mice in a time- and concentration-dependent manner. The seeding activity of brain extracts was reduced or abolished by Abeta immunodepletion, protein denaturation, or by Abeta immunization of the host. The phenotype of the exogenously induced amyloidosis depended on both the host and the source of the agent, suggesting the existence of polymorphic Abeta strains with varying biological activities reminiscent of prion strains.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Meyer-Luehmann, Melanie -- Coomaraswamy, Janaky -- Bolmont, Tristan -- Kaeser, Stephan -- Schaefer, Claudia -- Kilger, Ellen -- Neuenschwander, Anton -- Abramowski, Dorothee -- Frey, Peter -- Jaton, Anneliese L -- Vigouret, Jean-Marie -- Paganetti, Paolo -- Walsh, Dominic M -- Mathews, Paul M -- Ghiso, Jorge -- Staufenbiel, Matthias -- Walker, Lary C -- Jucker, Mathias -- NS45357/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- RR-00165/RR/NCRR NIH HHS/ -- Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2006 Sep 22;313(5794):1781-4.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Cellular Neurology, Hertie-Institute for Clinical Brain Research, University of Tubingen, D-72076 Tubingen, Germany.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16990547" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Animal viruses are broadly categorized structurally by the presence or absence of an envelope composed of a lipid-bilayer membrane, attributes that profoundly affect stability, transmission and immune recognition. Among those lacking an envelope, the Picornaviridae are a large and diverse family of positive-strand RNA viruses that includes hepatitis A virus (HAV), an ancient human pathogen that remains a common cause of enterically transmitted hepatitis. HAV infects in a stealth-like manner and replicates efficiently in the liver. Virus-specific antibodies appear only after 3-4 weeks of infection, and typically herald its resolution. Although unexplained mechanistically, both anti-HAV antibody and inactivated whole-virus vaccines prevent disease when administered as late as 2 weeks after exposure, when virus replication is well established in the liver. Here we show that HAV released from cells is cloaked in host-derived membranes, thereby protecting the virion from antibody-mediated neutralization. These enveloped viruses ('eHAV') resemble exosomes, small vesicles that are increasingly recognized to be important in intercellular communications. They are fully infectious, sensitive to extraction with chloroform, and circulate in the blood of infected humans. Their biogenesis is dependent on host proteins associated with endosomal-sorting complexes required for transport (ESCRT), namely VPS4B and ALIX. Whereas the hijacking of membranes by HAV facilitates escape from neutralizing antibodies and probably promotes virus spread within the liver, anti-capsid antibodies restrict replication after infection with eHAV, suggesting a possible explanation for prophylaxis after exposure. Membrane hijacking by HAV blurs the classic distinction between 'enveloped' and 'non-enveloped' viruses and has broad implications for mechanisms of viral egress from infected cells as well as host immune responses.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3631468/" target="_blank"〉〈img src="https://static.pubmed.gov/portal/portal3rc.fcgi/4089621/img/3977009" border="0"〉〈/a〉   〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3631468/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Feng, Zongdi -- Hensley, Lucinda -- McKnight, Kevin L -- Hu, Fengyu -- Madden, Victoria -- Ping, Lifang -- Jeong, Sook-Hyang -- Walker, Christopher -- Lanford, Robert E -- Lemon, Stanley M -- P30 CA016086/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- P51 OD011133/OD/NIH HHS/ -- R01 AI103083/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- R01-AI103083/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- R37 AI047367/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- England -- Nature. 2013 Apr 18;496(7445):367-71. doi: 10.1038/nature12029.

    Description: For several decades scientists have speculated that the key to understanding age-related neurodegenerative disorders may be found in the unusual biology of the prion diseases. Recently, owing largely to the advent of new disease models, this hypothesis has gained experimental momentum. In a remarkable variety of diseases, specific proteins have been found to misfold and aggregate into seeds that structurally corrupt like proteins, causing them to aggregate and form pathogenic assemblies ranging from small oligomers to large masses of amyloid. Proteinaceous seeds can therefore serve as self-propagating agents for the instigation and progression of disease. Alzheimer's disease and other cerebral proteopathies seem to arise from the de novo misfolding and sustained corruption of endogenous proteins, whereas prion diseases can also be infectious in origin. However, the outcome in all cases is the functional compromise of the nervous system, because the aggregated proteins gain a toxic function and/or lose their normal function. As a unifying pathogenic principle, the prion paradigm suggests broadly relevant therapeutic directions for a large class of currently intractable diseases.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3963807/" target="_blank"〉〈img src="https://static.pubmed.gov/portal/portal3rc.fcgi/4089621/img/3977009" border="0"〉〈/a〉   〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3963807/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Jucker, Mathias -- Walker, Lary C -- P51 OD011132/OD/NIH HHS/ -- P51 RR000165/RR/NCRR NIH HHS/ -- P51OD11132/OD/NIH HHS/ -- P51RR165/RR/NCRR NIH HHS/ -- R21 AG040589/AG/NIA NIH HHS/ -- R21AG040589/AG/NIA NIH HHS/ -- England -- Nature. 2013 Sep 5;501(7465):45-51. doi: 10.1038/nature12481.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Cellular Neurology, Hertie Institute for Clinical Brain Research, University of Tubingen, D-72076 Tubingen, Germany. mathias.jucker@uni-tuebingen.de〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/24005412" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
