Abstract

Vibrio parahaemolyticus is a globally present marine bacterium that often leads to acute gastroenteritis. Two type III secretion systems (T3SSs), T3SS1 and T3SS2, are important for host infection. Type I collagen is a component of the extracellular matrix and is abundant in the small intestine. However, whether type I collagen serves as the cellular receptor for V. parahaemolyticus infection of host cells remains enigmatic. In this study, we discovered that type I collagen is not only important for the attachment of V. parahaemolyticus to host cells but is also involved in T3SS1-dependent cytotoxicity. In addition, 2 virulence factors, MAM7 and VpadF enable V. parahaemolyticus to interact with type I collagen and mediate T3SS2-dependent host cell invasion. Type I collagen, the collagen receptor α1 integrin, and its downstream factor phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) are responsible for V. parahaemolyticus invasion of host cells. Further biochemical studies revealed that VpadF mainly relies on the C-terminal region for type I collagen binding and MAM7 relies on mce domains to bind to type I collagen. As MAM7 and/or VpadF homologues are widely distributed in the genus Vibrio, we propose that Vibrios have evolved a unique strat...Continue Reading

Adhesion Molecules in Health and Disease

Cell adhesion molecules are a subset of cell adhesion proteins located on the cell surface involved in binding with other cells or with the extracellular matrix in the process called cell adhesion. In essence, cell adhesion molecules help cells stick to each other and to their surroundings. Cell adhesion is a crucial component in maintaining tissue structure and function. Discover the latest research on adhesion molecule and their role in health and disease here.

AKT Pathway

This feed focuses on the AKT serine/threonine kinase, which is an important signaling pathway involved in processes such as glucose metabolism and cell survival.
