Citrobacter rodentium, an attaching-effacing bacterial pathogen, establishes an acute infection of the murine colonic epithelium and induces a mild colitis in immunocompetent mice. This study describes the role of T-cell subsets and B lymphocytes in...

Side-chain-to-tail thiolactone peptide inhibitors of the staphylococcal quorum-sensing system (2003)
Journal Article
Scott, R. J., Lian, L. Y., Muharram, S. H., Cockayne, A., Wood, S. J., Bycroft, B. W., …Chan, W. C. (2003). Side-chain-to-tail thiolactone peptide inhibitors of the staphylococcal quorum-sensing system. Bioorganic and Medicinal Chemistry Letters, 13(15), 2449-2453. https://doi.org/10.1016/S0960-894X%2803%2900497-9

The expression of many staphylococcal virulence factors are regulated by the agr locus via a two-component signal transduction system (TCSTS), which is activated in response to a secreted autoinducer peptide (AIP). By exploiting the unique chemical a... Read More about Side-chain-to-tail thiolactone peptide inhibitors of the staphylococcal quorum-sensing system.

The relative involvement of Th1 and Th2 associated immune responses in the expulsion of a primary infection of Heligmosomoides polygyrus in mice of differing response phenotype (2003)
Journal Article
Ben-Smith, A., Lammas, D., & Behnke, J. M. (2003). The relative involvement of Th1 and Th2 associated immune responses in the expulsion of a primary infection of Heligmosomoides polygyrus in mice of differing response phenotype. Journal of Helminthology, 77(2), https://doi.org/10.1079/JOH2003173

T helper cell (Th1 and Th2) associated responses were examined following a primary infection with the gastrointestinal nematode Heligmosomoides polygyrus in five inbred strains of mice with different resistance phenotypes. Levels of (i) mast cell pro...

Chasing the genes that control resistance to gastrointestinal nematodes (2003)
Journal Article
Behnke, J. M., Iraqi, F., Menge, D., Baker, R., Gibson, J., & Wakelin, D. (2003). Chasing the genes that control resistance to gastrointestinal nematodes. Journal of Helminthology, 77(2), https://doi.org/10.1079/JOH2003174

The host-protective immune response to infection with gastrointestinal (GI) nematodes involves a range of interacting processes that begin with recognition of the parasite’s antigens and culminate in an inflammatory reaction in the intestinal mucosa....

Seasonal distribution of genetic types of planktonic foraminifer morphospecies in the Santa Barbara channel and its paleoceanographic implications (2003)
Journal Article
Darling, K. F., Kucera, M., Wade, C. M., von Langen, P., & Pak, D. (2003). Seasonal distribution of genetic types of planktonic foraminifer morphospecies in the Santa Barbara channel and its paleoceanographic implications. Paleoceanography, 18(2), Article 1032. https://doi.org/10.1029/2001pa000723

We present data on the temporal distribution of planktonic foraminifer genotypes (small subunit (SSU) ribosomal (r) RNA gene) and morphospecies (sediment traps) collected during 1999 in the Santa Barbara Channel. The sampling was undertaken with spec...

Local variation in helminth burdens of Egyptian spiny mice (Acomys cahirinus dimidiatus) from ecologically similar sites: relationships with hormone concentrations and social behaviour (2003)
Journal Article

Local variation in helminth burdens of Egyptian spiny mice (Acomys cahirinus dimidiatus) from ecologically similar sites: relationships with hormone concentrations and social behaviour. Journal of Helminthology, 77(3), https://doi.org/10.1079/JOH2003189

Populations of Egyptian spiny mice (Acomys cahirinus dimidiatus) in a fragmented montane wadi system in the Sinai showed significant differences in the abundance of gut helminths. Differences in parasite load between populations were positively assoc...
