Coordinated Molecular Cross-Talk between Staphylococcus aureus, Endothelial Cells and Platelets in Bloodstream Infection

Staphylococcus aureus is an opportunistic pathogen often carried asymptomatically on the human body.Upon entry to the otherwise sterile environment of the cardiovascular system, S.aureus can lead to serious complications resulting in organ failure and death.The success of S.aureus as a Kitchen pathogen in the bloodstream is due to its ability to ex

An automatic preselection strategy for magnetotelluric single-site data processing based on linearity and polarization direction

The magnetotelluric response function can be severely disturbed by cultural electromagnetic noise.The preselection strategy is one of the effective ways to remove the influence of noise when calculating the response function.This study proposed three new parameters (the amplitude ratio predicted amplitude ratio and linear coherence (PLcoh) between

Odorant binding protein 18 increases the pathogen resistance of the imported willow leaf beetle, Plagiodera versicolora

BackgroundInsect odorant-binding proteins (OBPs) are a class of small molecular weight soluble proteins.In the past few years, OBPs had been found to work as carriers of ligands and play a crucial role in olfaction and various other physiological processes, like immunity.A subset of insect OBPs had been found to be expressed differently and play a
