Kottom T, Thomas Jr C, Limper A
J Bacteriol . 2001 Nov; 183(23):6740-5. PMID: 11698360
Pneumocystis carinii remains an important opportunistic fungal pathogen causing life-threatening pneumonia in patients with AIDS and malignancy. Currently, little is known about how the organism adapts to environmental stresses and...

Vassallo R, Kottom T, Standing J, Limper A
Am J Respir Cell Mol Biol . 2001 Aug; 25(2):203-11. PMID: 11509330
beta-glucans represent major structural components of fungal cell walls. We recently reported that Pneumocystis carinii beta-glucans stimulate alveolar macrophages to release proinflammatory cytokines. Macrophage activation by beta-glucan is augmented by...

Kottom T, Limper A
J Biol Chem . 2000 Oct; 275(51):40628-34. PMID: 11013231
Pneumocystis carinii remains a persistent cause of severe pneumonia in immune compromised patients. Recent studies indicate that P. carinii is a fungal species possessing a glucan-rich cyst wall. Pneumocandin antagonists...

Kottom T, Thomas Jr C, Mubarak K, Leof E, Limper A
Am J Respir Cell Mol Biol . 2000 Jun; 22(6):722-31. PMID: 10837370
Pneumocystis carinii causes severe pneumonia in immunocompromised patients. Recent studies indicate that P. carinii uses a Cdc2 cyclin-dependent kinase to control its proliferation. To further study the regulation of the...

Thomas Jr C, Kottom T, Leof E, Limper A
Am J Physiol . 1998 Aug; 275(1):L193-9. PMID: 9688951
The pathogenic fungus Pneumocystis carinii causes severe pneumonia in patients with impaired immunity, particularly patients with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome. The life cycle of P. carinii is poorly understood, and the...

Kottom T, Nolan L, Robinson M, Brown J, Gustad T, Horne S, et al.
Avian Dis . 1998 Feb; 41(4):817-23. PMID: 9454914
An attempt was made to characterize the mechanism of complement resistance operating in a virulent avian Escherichia coli isolate. Using flow cytometry to detect antibody to C3, we found that...

Horne S, Kottom T, Nolan L, Young K
Infect Immun . 1997 Feb; 65(2):806-10. PMID: 9009347
The fkpA gene of Salmonella typhimurium encodes a protein similar to the macrophage infectivity potentiator (Mip) proteins of Legionella pneumophila and Chlamydia trachomatis. Because Mip proteins enhance the ability of...
