Article Abstract
can adhere to host cells through different adherence factors including outer-membrane proteins (OMPs), lipopolysaccharide (LPS), and pili, but its adherence mechanisms are still unclear. Here, we evaluated the effect of autoinducer-2 (AI-2) on adherence of and its regulation mechanism. After determination of the promotion effect of AI-2 on adherence, we investigated which adherence factor was regulated by AI-2, and the results show that AI-2 only limits the formation of pili. Among the four distinct pili systems, only the mannose-sensitive hemagglutinin (MSHA) type IV pili genes were significantly downregulated after deficiency of AI-2. MshE, an ATPase belonged to MSHA type IV pilin, was confirmed as c-di-GMP receptor, that can bind with c-di-GMP which is positively regulated by AI-2, and the increase of c-di-GMP can promote the expression of MSHA type IV pili genes and adherence of . Therefore, this study confirms that c-di-GMP positively regulated by AI-2 binds with MshE, then increases the expression of MSHA pili genes, finally promoting adherence of , suggesting a multilevel positive regulatory adhesion mechanism that is responsible for adherence.

Occupational exposure to respirable crystalline silica (RCS) remains a significant health concern in metal and nonmetal (MNM) mining operations, contributing to the development of silicosis, lung cancer, and other chronic respiratory conditions. This review examines the prevalence and effects of RCS exposure in MNM mining environments, the toxicity of silica dust, and the effectiveness of regulatory interventions aimed at controlling exposure and mitigating health hazards. Key factors influencing RCS concentrations, including mine type, size, and geographic location, are analyzed, with particular focus on the impact of recent regulatory updates from the Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA).

Unlabelled: is a notable seafood-borne pathogen capable of colonizing the intestines of hosts and inducing acute gastroenteritis. The intestinal colonization and enterotoxicity of are highly reliant on the type III secretion system 2 (T3SS2), encoded within the pathogenicity island (Vp-PAI). The expression of Vp-PAI is strictly regulated by bile acid signals and transcriptional regulators VtrA/VtrB.

Background: The prognosis and survival of individuals with cetuximab-resistant colorectal cancer (CRC) remain severely impacted by therapy for this disease. The study investigated the underlying mechanisms of -mannose sensitive hemagglutinin (PA-MSHA), a type of therapeutic biological product approved in China, for cetuximab-resistant CRC.
Methods: Cell proliferation, apoptosis, migration and invasion were detected by cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) assay, flow cytometry, wound healing assay and transwell assay.
