Gut Bacteria Cospeciating with Insects
October 2006 | Volume 4 | Issue 10 | e359 | e364 Fusion of two plasma membranes is central to exocytosis, the process by which a cell secretes neurotransmitters, digestive enzymes, and other products. If you believe the simple diagrams in introductory biology textbooks, you’d think this fusion occurs as soon as two membranes touch. Not so—in fact, membrane fusion requires interaction among a co...
متن کاملInteractions between diatoms and bacteria.
Diatoms and bacteria have cooccurred in common habitats for hundreds of millions of years, thus fostering specific associations and interactions with global biogeochemical consequences. Diatoms are responsible for one-fifth of the photosynthesis on Earth, while bacteria remineralize a large portion of this fixed carbon in the oceans. Through their coexistence, diatoms and bacteria cycle nutrien...
متن کاملGut chemosensing: interactions between gut endocrine cells and visceral afferents.
Chemosensing in the gastrointestinal tract is less well understood than many aspects of gut mechanosensitivity; however, it is important in the overall function of the GI tract and indeed the organism as a whole. Chemosensing in the gut represents a complex interplay between the function of enteroendocrine (EEC) cells and visceral (primarily vagal) afferent neurons. In this brief review, I will...
متن کاملOn the interactions between virulent bacteriophages and bacteria in the gut
We recently described the targeting of O104:H4 Escherichia coli in mouse gut by several virulent bacteriophages, highlighting several issues relating to virus-host interactions, which we discuss further in this addendum to the original publication.
متن کاملInteractions between microbes and the gut epithelium.
Gut microbes interact with the epithelium through cell surface components, fermentation products, and extracellular secreted proteins. Host-microbial interactions primarily involve TLRs (toll-like receptors) and NLR (nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain and leucine-rich repeat containing proteins). In a strain and dose-dependent manner, several probiotic strains directly alter tight juncti...
