Burkholderia pseudomallei evades Nramp1 (Slc11a1)- and NADPH oxidase-mediated killing in macrophages and exhibits Nramp1-dependent virulence gene expression

Here we show that transfected macrophages stably expressing wild-type Nramp1 (Nramp1+) control the net replication of B. thailandensis, but not B. pseudomallei.

Toxoplasma Modulates Signature Pathways of Human Epilepsy, Neurodegeneration & Cancer.

disease-deconvolution" identified associations between the parasite-brain interactions and epilepsy, movement disorders, Alzheimer's disease, and cancer.

Expression profiling of Sudanese visceral leishmaniasis patients pre- and post-treatment with sodium stibogluconate

These results contribute to our understanding of immunopathology associated with visceral leishmaniasis and response to sodium stibogluconate treatment

Early childhood development of boys with genital anomalies

We found no increased risk of poor development among boys with hypospadias or undescended testis

Transcription start site profiling of 15 anatomical regions of the Macaca mulatta central nervous system

We believe this data represents a useful resource to understand the central nervous system in macaque.

Toxoplasma gondii infection is associated with mitochondrial dysfunction in-vitro

Our results show perturbation of host mitochondrial function following T. gondii infection that likely impacts on pathogenesis of disease.

Association of a NOD2 gene polymorphism and T-helper 17 cells with presumed ocular toxoplasmosis

We assessed 30 sibships and 89 parent/case trios of presumed ocular toxoplasmosis (POT) to evaluate associations with polymorphisms in the NOD2 gene.

Genome-Wide Association Study to Identify the Genetic Determinants of Otitis Media Susceptibility in Childhood

We identified several novel candidate genes which warrant further analysis in cohorts matched more precisely for clinical phenotypes.

Examining ERBB2 as a candidate gene for susceptibility to leprosy (Hansen's disease) in Brazil

This study examines whether polymorphisms in the ERBB2 gene were associated with leprosy in primary and replication cohorts from northeastern Brazil.
