Hierarchies of host factor dynamics at the entry site of Shigella flexneri during host cell invasion
Ehsani S, Santos J, Rodrigues C, Henriques R, Audry L, Zimmer C, et al.
Infect Immun
. 2012 Apr;
80(7):2548-57.
PMID: 22526677
Shigella flexneri, the causative agent of bacillary dysentery, induces massive cytoskeletal rearrangement, resulting in its entry into nonphagocytic epithelial cells. The bacterium-engulfing membrane ruffles are formed by polymerizing actin, a...

Cell Host Microbe
. 2011 Apr;
9(4):263-72.
PMID: 21501826
Shigella, the Gram-negative enteroinvasive bacterium that causes shigellosis, relies on its type III secretion system (TTSS) and injected effectors to modulate host cell functions. However, consequences of the interaction between...

Nat Methods
. 2010 Apr;
7(4):267-9.
PMID: 20354515
Tracking the spatiotemporal dynamics of bacterial effectors injected into single living host cells has become possible with a split GFP-based method.

Ehsani S, Rodrigues C, Enninga J
Curr Opin Microbiol
. 2009 Jan;
12(1):24-30.
PMID: 19135407
Secretion and translocation of bacterial pathogen effectors into host cells via dedicated secretion machineries like type III secretion systems (T3SSs) or type IV secretion systems (T4SSs) is a key feature...

Prudencio M, Rodrigues C, Hannus M, Martin C, Real E, Goncalves L, et al.
PLoS Pathog
. 2008 Nov;
4(11):e1000201.
PMID: 18989463
Plasmodium sporozoites, the causative agent of malaria, are injected into their vertebrate host through the bite of an infected Anopheles mosquito, homing to the liver where they invade hepatocytes to...

Cell Host Microbe
. 2008 Sep;
4(3):271-82.
PMID: 18779053
An obligatory step of malaria parasite infection is Plasmodium sporozoite invasion of host hepatocytes, and host lipoprotein clearance pathways have been linked to Plasmodium liver infection. By using RNA interference...

Cell Microbiol
. 2007 Aug;
10(1):218-24.
PMID: 17697130
The study of the liver stage of malaria has been hampered by limitations in the experimental approaches required to effectively dissect and quantify hepatocyte infection by Plasmodium. Here, we report...

PMID: 17496899
Cerebral malaria claims more than 1 million lives per year. We report that heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1, encoded by Hmox1) prevents the development of experimental cerebral malaria (ECM). BALB/c mice infected...
