The bacterial skin microbiome in psoriatic arthritis, an unexplored link in pathogenesis: challenges and opportunities offered by recent technological advances.
(England, 2014-05)The resident microbial community, harboured by humans in sites such as the skin and gastrointestinal tract, is enormous, representing a candidate environmental factor affecting susceptibility to complex diseases, where ... -
Bioleaching of Pyrite by Iron-Oxidizing Acidophiles under the Influence of Reactive Oxygen Species
(Trans Tech Publications, 2017-08) -
Biparental mucus feeding: a unique example of parental care in an Amazonian cichlid.
(England, 2010-11-15)Vertebrates display a wide variety of parental care behaviours, including the guarding of offspring pre and post nutritional independence as well as the direct provision of nutrients during the early development period. ... -
Butyrate regulation of distinct macrophage subsets: Opposing effects on M1 and M2 macrophages
(2011-12-01)Mucosal tolerance is central to efficient gastrointestinal tract function, tolerating food and commensal bacteria, whilst maintaining immune responsiveness to pathogens. Mucosal macrophages play a pivotal role in tolerance; ... -
CD44 is required for the pathogenesis of experimental crescentic glomerulonephritis and collapsing focal segmental glomerulosclerosis
(Elsevier, 2018-03)© 2017 International Society of Nephrology. A key feature of glomerular diseases such as crescentic glomerulonephritis and focal segmental glomerulosclerosis is the activation, migration and proliferation of parietal ... -
The challenge of regulation in a minimal photoautotroph: non-coding RNAs in Prochlorococcus.
(United States, 2008-08-29)Prochlorococcus, an extremely small cyanobacterium that is very abundant in the world's oceans, has a very streamlined genome. On average, these cells have about 2,000 genes and very few regulatory proteins. The limited ... -
Chemotherapy-induced genotoxic damage to bone marrow cells: long-term implications.
(2018-09-17)Mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs) within the bone marrow (BM) are vitally important in forming the micro-environment supporting haematopoiesis after myeloablative chemotherapy. MSCs are known to be damaged phenotypically ... -
ChIP-seq Experiment and Data Analysis in the Cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803
(Bio-Protocol, 2018-06-20) -
Choreography of the transcriptome, photophysiology, and cell cycle of a minimal photoautotroph, prochlorococcus.
(United States, 2009)The marine cyanobacterium Prochlorococcus MED4 has the smallest genome and cell size of all known photosynthetic organisms. Like all phototrophs at temperate latitudes, it experiences predictable daily variation in available ... -
Clinical Outcomes to Exercise Training in Type 1 Diabetes: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.
(Elsevier, 2018-05)AIMS: To establish the relationship between exercise training and clinical outcomes in people with type I diabetes. METHODS: Studies were identified through a MEDLINE search strategy, Cochrane Controlled Trials Registry, ... -
Comparative proteomics and functional analysis reveal a role of P. falciparum osmiophilic bodies in malaria parasite transmission.
(2016-10-01)An essential step in the transmission of the malaria parasite to the Anopheles vector is the transformation of the mature gametocytes into gametes in the mosquito gut, where they egress from the erythrocytes and mate to ... -
Comparison and consolidation of microarray data sets of human tissue expression.
(England, 2010-05-14)BACKGROUND: Human tissue displays a remarkable diversity in structure and function. To understand how such diversity emerges from the same DNA, systematic measurements of gene expression across different tissues in the ... -

The complete genome sequence of Escherichia coli EC958: a high quality reference sequence for the globally disseminated multidrug resistant E. coli O25b:H4-ST131 clone.
(United States, 2014)Escherichia coli ST131 is now recognised as a leading contributor to urinary tract and bloodstream infections in both community and clinical settings. Here we present the complete, annotated genome of E. coli EC958, which ... -
Complete RHD next-generation sequencing: establishment of reference RHD alleles.
(American Society of Hematology, 2018-10-23)The Rh blood group system (ISBT004) is the second most important blood group after ABO and is the most polymorphic one, with 55 antigens encoded by 2 genes, RHD and RHCE This research uses next-generation sequencing (NGS) ...
