1.
Transmissible Endosomal Intoxication: A Balance between Exosomes and Lysosomes at the Basis of Intercellular Amyloid Propagation
Becot A, Volgers C, van Niel G
Biomedicines . 2020 Aug; 8(8). PMID: 32759666
In Alzheimer's disease (AD), endolysosomal dysfunctions are amongst the earliest cellular features to appear. Each organelle of the endolysosomal system, from the multivesicular body (MVB) to the lysosome, contributes to...

Immunomodulatory role for membrane vesicles released by THP-1 macrophages and respiratory pathogens during macrophage infection
Volgers C, Benedikter B, Grauls G, Savelkoul P, Stassen F
BMC Microbiol . 2017 Nov; 17(1):216. PMID: 29132302
Background: During infection, inflammation is partially driven by the release of mediators which facilitate intercellular communication. Amongst these mediators are small membrane vesicles (MVs) that can be released by both...

Gram-negative bacterial membrane vesicle release in response to the host-environment: different threats, same trick?
Volgers C, Savelkoul P, Stassen F
Crit Rev Microbiol . 2017 Jul; 44(3):258-273. PMID: 28741415
Bacteria are confronted with a multitude of stressors when occupying niches within the host. These stressors originate from host defense mechanisms, other bacteria during niche competition or result from physiological...

Budesonide, fluticasone propionate, and azithromycin do not modulate the membrane vesicle release by THP-1 macrophages and respiratory pathogens during macrophage infection
Volgers C, Grauls G, Hellebrand P, Savelkoul P, Stassen F
Inflammopharmacology . 2017 May; 25(6):643-651. PMID: 28528362
Patients with more severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease frequently experience exacerbations and it is estimated that up to 50% of these exacerbations are associated with bacterial infections. The mainstay treatment...
5.
Bead-based flow-cytometry for semi-quantitative analysis of complex membrane vesicle populations released by bacteria and host cells
Volgers C, Benedikter B, Grauls G, Savelkoul P, Stassen F
Microbiol Res . 2017 May; 200:25-32. PMID: 28527761
During infection, the release of nano-sized membrane vesicle is a process which is common both for bacteria and host cells. Host cell-derived membrane vesicles can be involved in innate and...

Effects of N-acetyl-L-cysteine on the membrane vesicle release and growth of respiratory pathogens
Volgers C, Benedikter B, Grauls G, Hellebrand P, Savelkoul P, Stassen F
FEMS Microbiol Lett . 2017 Apr; 364(9). PMID: 28444395
Bacterial infections contribute to the disease progression of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease by stimulating mucus production in the airways. This increased mucus production and other symptoms are often alleviated when...

Cigarette smoke extract induced exosome release is mediated by depletion of exofacial thiols and can be inhibited by thiol-antioxidants
Benedikter B, Volgers C, van Eijck P, Wouters E, Savelkoul P, Reynaert N, et al.
Free Radic Biol Med . 2017 Apr; 108:334-344. PMID: 28359953
Introduction: Airway epithelial cells have been described to release extracellular vesicles (EVs) with pathological properties when exposed to cigarette smoke extract (CSE). As CSE causes oxidative stress, we investigated whether...
