Modulation of Inducible Nitric Oxide Synthase Expression by the Attaching and Effacing Bacterial Pathogen Citrobacter rodentium in Infected Mice

Vallance, Bruce A., Deng, Wanyin, De Grado, Myriam, Chan, Crystal, Jacobson, Kevan, Finlay, B. Brett

Citrobacter rodentium belongs to the attaching and effacing family of enteric bacterial pathogens that includes both enteropathogenic and enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli. These bacteria infect...

Host Susceptibility to the Attaching and Effacing Bacterial Pathogen Citrobacter rodentium

Vallance, Bruce A., Deng, Wanyin, Jacobson, Kevan, Finlay, B. Brett

Many studies have shown that genetic susceptibility plays a key role in determining whether bacterial pathogens successfully infect and cause disease in potential hosts. Surprisingly, whether host...

Allen, Upton, Alfieri, Caroline, Preiksaitis, Jutta, Humar, Atul, Moore, Dorothy, Tapiero, Bruce, ...

Diseases caused by the Epstein-Barr virus are of great significance among organ transplant recipients. One of these diseases, post-transplant lymphoproliferative disease, is a major complication...

Interpreting Abnormalities in Routine Liver Biochemistry: How to identify patterns in test results

Jacobson, Kevan, Witt-Sullivan, Helga B.

Abnormal liver test results indicate underlying liver disease; unfortunately, these tests are neither sensitive nor specific. The pattern of liver test abnormality can identify the cause and can...

Helicobacter pylori infection in Canadian and related Arctic Aboriginal populations

Goodman, Karen J, Jacobson, Kevan, Van Zanten, Sander Veldhuyzen

In 2006, the Canadian Helicobacter Study Group identified Aboriginal communities among Canadian population groups most at risk of Helicobacter pylori-associated disease. The objective of this...
