Review ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleHost Receptor Immunomodulation in Response to Shigella Surface Antigens: An Insight for Vaccine DevelopmentAshim K. Bagchi, Rushita A. Bagchi, Dipak K. Hens et al.Shigellosis, caused by Shigella is the most common cause of bacillary dysentery. The disease is associated with high morbidity and mortality rate owing to its multiple drug resistance. Hence recovery from the disease would primarily depend on the development of an effective immune-modulator for strong mucosal immune response. The role of cellular immunity may be a critical factor in protection … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 21 Jun 2015 · 6,752 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleProfiling and Curing from Shigella Spp Isolated from Plasmid Diarrheal PatientsMunim R. Ali, Raad N. Hasan, Ali I. Mohammed, Ahmaed A. AbbasProblem statement: Shigellosis is a common infectious disease especially in underdeveloped countries. The bacteria are primarily transmitted through the faecal-oral route. The inflammatory process of acute Shigella infection affects the colon and is characterized clinically by fever, cramping abdominal pain with frequent loose stools that might contain mucus, pus and blood. Approach: This study determined the susceptibility of Shigella isolates … …Current Research in Microbiology, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 30 Jun 2010 · 8,429 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCharacterization of Pseudomonas aeruginosa Infecting Bacteriophages from Swiftlet House Pond Water and Sewage in South Kalimantan, IndonesiaSiti Gusti Ningrum, Dyah Widhowati, Titin Yulinery et al.Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an opportunistic bacterium that may occur in animal-production environments and contribute to microbial contamination of animal-derived products. However, information on P. aeruginosa-infecting bacteriophages in artificial swiftlet-house environments remains limited. This study aimed to isolate and evaluate P. aeruginosa-infecting bacteriophages from the swiftlet-house environment in South Kalimantan, Indonesia. A total of 75 samples involving pond waters (n = … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 3 · 26 Oct 2026 · 55 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPrevalence of Diarrhea-Causing Pathogens in South Korea Analyzed Using Molecular Diagnostic MethodsYonghee Lee, Jae Kyung KimGastrointestinal inflammation remains a prevalent global health concern. Prompt and accurate diagnosis of the condition is required to mitigate health risks in immunocompromised individuals and alleviate the economic burden linked to treatment and pathogen isolation. Challenges posed by traditional culture tests, such as long detection time and inability to isolate low-abundance organisms, can be overcome using molecular diagnostic methods, which … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 20, Issue 2 · 25 Jul 2024 · 5,005 accessesView PDF Cite
