Bacterial respiratory infections pose significant health risks to children, particularly infants susceptible to upper respiratory tract infections (URTIs). The COVID-19 pandemic has further exacerbated the prevalence of these infections, with pathogens such as and commonly implicated in pediatric cases. The critical need for accurate and timely detection of these bacterial agents has highlighted the importance of advanced diagnostic techniques, including multiplex real-time PCR, in clinical practice.

The ultrastructure of mitochondria is pivotal for their respiratory activity. Thus, the regulation of the assembly of the super-complexes (SCs) of the mitochondrial electron transport chain (ETC) might be a core aspect of macrophage immunometabolism during bacterial infection. In order to study the impact of infection by Legionella pneumophila on the configuration of mitochondrial complexes and SCs in human macrophages, we have adapted and combined different methods such as cell sorting of infected cells, magnetic isolation of highly pure and functional mitochondria, quality control of mitochondrial purity by flow cytometry, and BN-PAGE (Blue-Native Polyacrylamide Gel Electrophoresis) coupled to Western Blot using near-infrared (NIR) fluorescence.

The immunocompromised population is susceptible to pneumonia. The diagnosis and treatment of pneumonia in immunocompromised individuals are challenging clinical endeavors. Previous studies have identified pneumonia as a potential cause of organizing pneumonia (OP), however, the association between pneumonia and OP has not received enough clinical attention.

Legionella pneumophila is an intracellular bacterial pathogen that modulates membrane trafficking to survive and proliferate within host cells. After phagocytosis, the L. pneumophila-containing vacuole evades the endocytic pathway by excluding the host GTPase Rab5, a crucial regulator of phagosomal maturation.
