Listeriosis is a serious food-borne illness, especially in susceptible populations, including
children, pregnant women, and elderlies. The disease can occur in two forms: non-invasive …

Listeria monocytogenes causes listeriosis, a disease characterized by a high mortality rate
(up to 30%). Since the pathogen is highly tolerant to changing conditions (high and low …

The food-borne pathogen Listeria monocytogenes uses actin-based motility to generate
plasma membrane protrusions that mediate the spread of bacteria between host cells. In …

Many systemically administered cancer therapies exhibit dose-limiting toxicities that reduce
their effectiveness. To increase efficacy, bacterial delivery platforms have been developed …

Since the discovery of antibiotics, humans have been benefiting from them by decreasing
the morbidity and mortality associated with bacterial infections. However, in the past few …

The bacterial pathogen Listeria monocytogenes induces its internalization (entry) into
intestinal epithelial cells through interaction of its surface protein, internalin A (InlA), with the …

Intracellular bacterial pathogens remodel the plasma membrane of eukaryotic cells in order
to establish infection. A common and well‐studied mechanism of plasma membrane …

L. monocytogenes, consisting of 13 serotypes, is an opportunistic food-borne pathogen that
causes different host reactions depending on its serotypes. In this study, highly toxic L …

Listeria monocytogenes is a foodborne pathogen that causes listeriosis in humans, the
severity of which depends on multiple factors, including intrinsic characteristics of the …

Cell autonomous responses to intracellular bacteria largely depend on reorganization of
gene expression. To gain isoform-level resolution of these modes of regulation, we …
