Odedra A, Mudie K, Kennedy G, Watts R, Rossignol E, Mitchell H, et al.
Malar J . 2021 Jan; 20(1):43. PMID: 33446191
Background: In the absence of a method to culture Plasmodium vivax, the only way to source parasites is ex vivo. This hampers many aspects of P. vivax research. This study...

Rebelo M, Pawliw R, Gower J, Webb L, Mitchell H, Pava Z, et al.
J Infect Dis . 2020 Oct; 223(12):2154-2163. PMID: 33119072
Background: Artemisinin derivatives are the leading class of antimalarial drugs due to their rapid onset of action and rapid clearance of circulating parasites. The parasite clearance half-life measures the rate...

Watts R, Odedra A, Marquart L, Webb L, Abd-Rahman A, Cascales L, et al.
PLoS Med . 2020 Aug; 17(8):e1003203. PMID: 32822347
Background: Artemisinin resistance is threatening malaria control. We aimed to develop and test a human model of artemisinin-resistant (ART-R) Plasmodium falciparum to evaluate the efficacy of drugs against ART-R malaria....

Beatson S, Ben Zakour N, Totsika M, Forde B, Watts R, Mabbett A, et al.
Infect Immun . 2015 Feb; 83(5):1749-64. PMID: 25667270
Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are among the most common infectious diseases of humans, with Escherichia coli responsible for >80% of all cases. One extreme of UTI is asymptomatic bacteriuria (ABU),...

Achard M, Chen K, Sweet M, Watts R, Schroder K, Schembri M, et al.
Biochem J . 2013 Jun; 454(3):543-9. PMID: 23805839
Iron acquisition is an important aspect of the host-pathogen interaction. In the case of Salmonella it is established that catecholate siderophores are important for full virulence. In view of their...

Watts R, Tan C, Ulett G, Carey A, Totsika M, Idris A, et al.
J Infect Dis . 2012 Aug; 206(8):1242-9. PMID: 22872729
Urinary tract infections (UTIs) caused by uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) are a significant health concern, exacerbated by the rapid emergence of multidrug resistant strains refractory to antibiotic treatment. P fimbriae...

Watts R, Totsika M, Challinor V, Mabbett A, Ulett G, De Voss J, et al.
Infect Immun . 2011 Sep; 80(1):333-44. PMID: 21930757
The molecular mechanisms that define asymptomatic bacteriuria (ABU) Escherichia coli colonization of the human urinary tract remain to be properly elucidated. Here, we utilize ABU E. coli strain 83972 as...

Watts R, Hancock V, Ong C, Vejborg R, Mabbett A, Totsika M, et al.
J Clin Microbiol . 2010 May; 48(7):2449-58. PMID: 20444967
Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are among the most common infectious diseases of humans, with Escherichia coli being responsible for >80% of all cases. Asymptomatic bacteriuria (ABU) occurs when bacteria colonize...

Mabbett A, Ulett G, Watts R, Tree J, Totsika M, Ong C, et al.
Int J Med Microbiol . 2008 Aug; 299(1):53-63. PMID: 18706859
In asymptomatic bacteriuria (ABU), bacteria colonize the urinary tract without provoking symptoms. Here, we compared the virulence properties of a collection of ABU Escherichia coli strains to cystitis and pyelonephritis...
