Pathogenic mycobacteria achieve cellular persistence by inhibiting the Niemann-Pick Type C disease cellular pathway
BACKGROUND Tuberculosis remains a major global health concern. The ability to prevent phagosome-lysosome fusion is a key mechanism by which intracellular mycobacteria, including Mycobacterium tuberculosis, achieve long-term persistence within host cells. The mechanisms underpinning this key intracellular pro-survival strategy remain incompletely understood. Host macrophages infected with persis...

متن کاملPeculiarities of Pharmacotherapy in Arterial Hypertension and Comorbid Pathology.
UNLABELLED In patients with arterial hypertension (AH) pharmacotherapy often remains ineffective because of comorbid pathology. Research of haemodynamic and metabolic processes in such patients allows prescribe effective antihypertensive medicines, improve life quality and prognosis. MATERIAL AND METHODS 60 patients with AH, coronary artery disease and obesity were divided into three groups: ...
متن کاملMolecular and cellular pathology: summary
Introduction. The aim of the molecular and cellular pathology group in the Bremerhaven Workshop was to test for evidence of biological changes which were indicative of exposure to toxic chemicals, as well as to their adverse effects. Much of the study focused on the liver of the flatfish dab Llmanda limanda. The liver was chosen as it is an integrator of many functions including detoxication/ac...
متن کاملGpnmb Is a Potential Marker for the Visceral Pathology in Niemann-Pick Type C Disease
Impaired function of NPC1 or NPC2 lysosomal proteins leads to the intracellular accumulation of unesterified cholesterol, the primary defect underlying Niemann-Pick type C (NPC) disease. In addition, glycosphingolipids (GSLs) accumulate in lysosomes as well. Intralysosomal lipid accumulation triggers the activation of a set of genes, including potential biomarkers. Transcript levels of Gpnmb ha...
