Incubation of Yersinia pseudotuberculosis cells grown on a solid medium with pseudotuberculous diagnostic bacteriophage for 20 min at 37oC led to a significant decrease in the concentration of both components of the system. This effect was absent when the bacteria were grown in a fluid medium. At the same time, this incubation regimen promoted vesicle formation and typical morphological changes in bacteria grown in both surface and suspension cultures. Co-incubation of the bacteriophage with suspension of vesicles isolated from the suspension culture of Y. pseudotuberculosis grown at 10oC (but not 37oC) led to a decrease in plaque-forming activity of the bacteriophage.

is a pathogenic bacterium that can infect humans and animals, yet the role of its outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) in mediating pathogenicity remains underexplored. This study evaluated the effects of linoleic acid (LA) and stearic acid (SA) on quorum sensing (QS)-mediated violacein production, biofilm formation, and OMV biogenesis in . Our findings revealed that 2 mM LA and 1 mM SA effectively quench QS, leading to a significant reduction in violacein production, biofilm formation, and OMV biogenesis.

Outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) and exosomes are essential mediators of host-pathogen interactions. Elucidating their mechanisms of action offers valuable insights into diagnosing and treating infectious diseases and cancers. However, the specific interactions of () with host cells via OMVs and exosomes in modulating host immune responses have not been thoroughly investigated.

Background: Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a significant factor causing blindness in adults. However, the clinical diagnosis of AMD is relatively challenging, due to the shortcomings of the existing clinical examination methods and the latent period of retinal damage before macular degeneration becomes apparent. This study aims to explore the potential of extracellular vesicles (EVs) protein chips for early diagnosis of AMD using patients' plasma samples.

Background: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) represents a multifaceted endocrine, reproductive, and metabolic disorder characterized by hyperandrogenism and hyperinsulinemia-induced insulin resistance (IR). Recent studies reported that the etiology of PCOS is likely correlated with genes involved in steriodogenesis, IR and glucose metabolism. Among the candidate genes in insulin signaling pathways, RAB5B, a small GTPase involved in vesicle trafficking, significantly impacts cellular pathways in ovarian follicular cells, leading to clinical and endocrine changes among women with PCOS.
