G1 Cell Cycle Arrest Is Induced by the Fourth Extracellular Loop of Meningococcal PorA in Epithelial and Endothelial Cells (2023)
Journal Article
Vassey, M., Firdaus, R., Aslam, A., Wheldon, L. M., Oldfield, N. J., Ala’Aldeen, D. A., & Wooldridge, K. G. (2023). G1 Cell Cycle Arrest Is Induced by the Fourth Extracellular Loop of Meningococcal PorA in Epithelial and Endothelial Cells. Cellular Microbiology, 2023, 1-15. https://doi.org/10.1155/2023/7480033

Neisseria meningitidis is the most frequent cause of bacterial meningitis and is one of the few bacterial pathogens that can breach the blood-brain barrier (BBB). The 37/67 kDa laminin receptor (LamR) was previously identified as a receptor mediating...

Ferric Quinate (QPLEX) inhibits the interaction of Major Outer Membrane Protein (MOMP) with the Lewis b (Leb) antigen and Limits Campylobacter colonisation in broilers (2023)
Journal Article
Okoye, J. C., Holland, A., Pitoulias, M., Paschalis, V., Piddubnyi, A., Dufailu, O. A., …Soultanos, P. (2023). Ferric Quinate (QPLEX) inhibits the interaction of Major Outer Membrane Protein (MOMP) with the Lewis b (Leb) antigen and Limits Campylobacter colonisation in broilers. Frontiers in Microbiology, 14, Article 1146418. https://doi.org/10.3389/fmicb.2023.1146418

Campylobacter jejuni colonizes hosts by interacting with Blood Group Antigens (BgAgs) on the surface of gastrointestinal epithelia. Genetic variations in BgAg expression affects host susceptibility to C. jejuni. Here, we show that the essential major...

Variable disruption of epithelial monolayers by Neisseria meningitidis carriage isolates of the hypervirulent MenW cc11 and MenY cc23 lineages (2023)
Journal Article
Dave, N., Albiheyri, R. S., Wanford, J. J., Green, L. R., Oldfield, N. J., Turner, D. P., …Bayliss, C. D. (2023). Variable disruption of epithelial monolayers by Neisseria meningitidis carriage isolates of the hypervirulent MenW cc11 and MenY cc23 lineages. Microbiology, 169(2), https://doi.org/10.1099/mic.0.001305

Colonization of mucosal tissues by Neisseria meningitidis requires adhesion mediated by the type IV pilus and multiple outer-membrane proteins. Penetration of the mucosa and invasion of epithelial cells are thought to contribute to host persistence a...
