The effects of Vibrio parahaemolyticus on Mitogen Activated Protein Kinase signalling pathways and intestinal epithelial host cell responses
(2013-02-20)Vibrio parahaemolyticus is a gram negative bacterium that is found in marine and estuarine environments. Although found amongst the commensal flora of shellfish, V. parahaemolyticus is a potent human pathogen. Consumption ... -
Investigation of pathogenic vibrio in Irish aquaculture
(NUI Galway, 2023-07-31)Vibrio parahaemolyticus, Vibrio vulnificus and Vibrio cholerae are marine pathogens that cause gastroenteritis in humans after the consumption of infected shellfish. Vibrio can cause devastating losses of oysters, shrimps ... -
Manipulation of intestinal epithelial cell function by the cell contact-dependent type III secretion systems of Vibrio parahaemolyticus
(Frontiers Media, 2014-01-10)Vibrio parahaemolyticus elicits gastroenteritis by deploying Type III Secretion Systems (TTSS) to deliver effector proteins into epithelial cells of the human intestinal tract. The bacteria must adhere to the human cells ... -
The molecular mechanisms governing the colonisation of intestinal epithelial cells by Vibrio parahaemolyticus
(2012-12-19)Vibrio parahaemolyticus is a food borne gastro-intestinal pathogen of major global importance. The organism induces severe inflammatory diarrhea in individuals who become infected due to the consumption of contaminated ...
