In human infections with these bacteria, such as whooping cough, coughing imposes a heavy burden on patients. The pathophysiology of this severe coughing had long been uncharacterized because convenient animal models that reproduce Bordetella-induced cough have not been available. However, rat and mouse models were recently shown as useful for understanding, at least partially, the causative factors and the mechanism of Bordetella-induced cough. Many types of coughs are induced under various physiological conditions, and the neurophysiological pathways of coughing are considered to vary among animal species, including humans. However, the neurophysiological mechanisms of the coughs in different animal species have not been entirely understood, and, accordingly, the current understanding of Bordetella-induced cough is still incomplete. Nevertheless, recent research findings may open the way for the development of prophylaxis and therapeutic measures against Bordetella-induced cough.","PeriodicalId":18679,"journal":{"name":"Microbiology and Immunology","volume":"68 4","pages":"123-129"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2024-02-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/1348-0421.13119","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139692353","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The recombinant bacillus Calmette Guérin (rBCG) vaccine, which expresses foreign antigens, is expected to be a superior vaccine against infectious diseases. Here, we report a new recombination platform in which the BCG Tokyo strain is transformed with nucleotide sequences encoding foreign protein fused with the MPB70 immunogenic protein precursor. By RNA-sequencing, mpb70 was found to be the most transcribed among all known genes of BCG Tokyo. Small oligopeptide, namely, polyhistidine tag, was able to be expressed in and secreted from rBCG through a process in which polyhistidine tag fused with intact MPB70 were transcribed by an mpb70 promoter. This methodology was applied to develop an rBCG expressing the receptor binding domain (RBD) of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2. Immunoblotting images and mass spectrometry data showed that RBD was also secreted from rBCG. Sera from mice vaccinated with the rBCG showed a tendency of weak neutralizing capacity. The secretion was retained even after a freeze-drying process. The freeze-dried rBCG was administered to and recovered from mice. Recovered rBCG kept secreting RBD. Collectively, our recombination platform offers stable secretion of foreign antigens and can be applied to the development of practical rBCGs.","PeriodicalId":18679,"journal":{"name":"Microbiology and Immunology","volume":"68 4","pages":"130-147"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2024-01-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139642500","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To seek new strategies to overcome HIV type 1 (HIV-1) latency, one of the major barriers to HIV elimination, it is crucial to better understand how this state is maintained. Here, by means of an RNA interference screen employing an HIV-1 latency model using monocytic cell lines, we identified solute carrier family 25 member 42 (SLC25A42) as a potential host factor not previously known to affect HIV-1 latency. SLC25A42 knockdown resulted in increased HIV-1 expression, whereas forced expression of exogenous SLC25A42 suppressed it in SLC25A42-depleted cells. SLC25A42 depletion increased HIV-1 proviral transcriptional elongation but did not cause HIV-1 activation in an HIV-1 Tat-depleted latency model. This suggests that the role of SLC25A42 in HIV-1 transcription depends on HIV-1 Tat. Chromatin immunoprecipitation-qPCR analysis further revealed that SLC25A42 accumulated on or near the HIV-1 5ʹ long terminal repeat promoter region of the HIV-1 provirus, suggesting a possible role in regulating HIV-1 Tat near this promoter region. These results indicate that SLC25A42 plays a novel role in HIV-1 latency maintenance in monocytic HIV-1 reservoirs.","PeriodicalId":18679,"journal":{"name":"Microbiology and Immunology","volume":"68 3","pages":"90-99"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2024-01-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/1348-0421.13114","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139512931","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Therefore, it is important to determine the prevalence of S. aureus and methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) in individuals, especially older adults. In this study, we investigated the prevalence of S. aureus and MRSA in the oral cavity and feces of residents in long-term care facilities (LTCFs). S. aureus was isolated from the oral cavity of 61/178 (34.3%) participants, including 28 MRSA-positive participants (15.7%), and from the feces of 35/127 (27.6%) participants, including 16 MRSA-positive participants (12.6%). S. aureus and MRSA were isolated from both sites in 19/127 individuals (15.0%) and 10/127 individuals (7.9%), respectively. Among 19 participants with S. aureus isolation from both sites, 17 participants showed the same sequence type (ST) type. Then, we analyzed the correlation of S. aureus and MRSA in the oral cavity and rectum with the participant's condition. S. aureus and MRSA positivity in the oral cavity was significantly related to tube feeding, while there was no correlation of rectal S. aureus/MRSA with any factors. Our findings regarding the oral inhabitation of MRSA and its risk factors indicate the importance of considering countermeasures against MRSA infection in LTCFs.","PeriodicalId":18679,"journal":{"name":"Microbiology and Immunology","volume":"68 3","pages":"75-89"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2024-01-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139478884","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
