Ding S, Yang J, Feng X, Pandey A, Barhoumi R, Zhang D, et al.
iScience . 2021 Mar; 24(3):102192. PMID: 33718841
Phagocytosis and autophagy play critical roles in immune defense. The human fungal pathogen (Cn) subverts host autophagy-initiation complex (AIC)-related proteins, to promote its phagocytosis and intracellular parasitism of host cells....

Front Cell Infect Microbiol . 2020 Jun; 10:240. PMID: 32528902
is an important causative agent of nosocomial infections worldwide. The pathogen also readily acquires resistance to antibiotics, and pan-resistant strains have been reported. is widely regarded as an extracellular bacterial...

Vaccine X . 2019 Sep; 3:100041. PMID: 31528851
Brucellosis in swine is caused by a bacterial infection of nearly worldwide distribution. is also transmissible to humans, dogs and cattle and is considered a reemerging disease of public health...

Pandey A, Lin F, Cabello A, da Costa L, Feng X, Feng H, et al.
Front Cell Infect Microbiol . 2018 May; 8:103. PMID: 29732320
spp. are intracellular vacuolar pathogens that causes brucellosis, a worldwide zoonosis of profound importance. We previously demonstrated that the activity of host unfolded protein response (UPR) sensor IRE1α (inositol-requiring enzyme...

Pandey A, Ding S, Qin Q, Gupta R, Gomez G, Lin F, et al.
Cell Host Microbe . 2017 May; 21(5):637-649.e6. PMID: 28494245
Cryptococcus neoformans (Cn) is a deadly fungal pathogen whose intracellular lifestyle is important for virulence. Host mechanisms controlling fungal phagocytosis and replication remain obscure. Here, we perform a global phosphoproteomic...

Pandey A, Cabello A, Akoolo L, Rice-Ficht A, Arenas-Gamboa A, McMurray D, et al.
PLoS Negl Trop Dis . 2016 Aug; 10(8):e0004572. PMID: 27537413
Vaccination of humans and animals with live attenuated organisms has proven to be an effective means of combatting some important infectious diseases. In fact, the 20th century witnessed tremendous improvements...

de Figueiredo P, Ficht T, Rice-Ficht A, Rossetti C, Adams L
Am J Pathol . 2015 Apr; 185(6):1505-17. PMID: 25892682
This review of Brucella-host interactions and immunobiology discusses recent discoveries as the basis for pathogenesis-informed rationales to prevent or treat brucellosis. Brucella spp., as animal pathogens, cause human brucellosis, a...

J Biomed Mater Res A . 2014 Aug; 103(4):1546-53. PMID: 25087647
Although the in vivo function of the Drosophila melanogaster Hox protein Ultrabithorax (Ubx) is to regulate transcription, in vitro Ubx hierarchically self-assembles to form nanoscale to macroscale materials. The morphology,...

Front Cell Infect Microbiol . 2013 May; 3:17. PMID: 23720712
Vaccination is the most important approach to counteract infectious diseases. Thus, the development of new and improved vaccines for existing, emerging, and re-emerging diseases is an area of great interest...

PLoS One . 2013 Mar; 8(3):e59751. PMID: 23533646
Brucella is the etiologic agent of brucellosis, one of the most common and widely distributed zoonotic diseases. Its highly infectious nature, the insidious, systemic, chronic, debilitating aspects of the disease...
