Exertional calf pain at kilometer five - Finding the cause.

A 23-year-old professional distance runner with several years of exertional calf pain was diagnosed with a unique mixed type III and functional popliteal artery entrapment syndrome (PAES). Surgical reduction of the obstructing tissue allowed her to return to professional running. This case highlights the importance of including PAES in the differential for chronic intermittent lower extremity claudication and outlines the work-up required to diagnose this vascular obstruction in younger athletes.

Colonisation of Meat by O157:H7: Investigating Bacterial Tropism with Respect to the Different Types of Skeletal Muscles, Subtypes of Myofibres, and Postmortem Time.

O157:H7 is an enterohaemorrhagic (EHEC) responsible for serious diseases, especially pediatric, and of great concern for the meat industry. Meat contamination by EHEC occurs at slaughtering, especially at dehiding stage, where bacteria can be transferred from hides to carcasses. The skeletal muscle tissues comprise four major types of myofibres, which differ in their contraction velocity and metabolism.

Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli pathogenesis: role of Long polar fimbriae in Peyer's patches interactions.

Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) are major food-borne pathogens whose survival and virulence in the human digestive tract remain unclear owing to paucity of relevant models. EHEC interact with the follicle-associated epithelium of Peyer's patches of the distal ileum and translocate across the intestinal epithelium via M-cells, but the underlying molecular mechanisms are still unknown. Here, we investigated the involvement of Long polar fimbriae (Lpf) in EHEC pathogenesis.

Contribution of the multiple Type I signal peptidases to the secretome of Listeria monocytogenes: deciphering their specificity for secreted exoproteins by exoproteomic analysis.

Unlabelled: As commonly seen in monoderm bacteria, Listeria monocytogenes possesses multiple membrane-bound signal peptidases of Type I (SPases I) called SipX, SipY and SipZ. In order to decipher their respective contribution in an integrated and global view, the complement of the secretome corresponding to the exoproteome was resolved by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-DE). This was performed for L.

The Gagny local centre for information and coordination in gerontology (CLIC) became officially accredited in December 2004. Located within the town hall, it consists of an adviser in social and family economics who acts as the centre's manager, coordinator and assessor, as well as an assessment nurse.
