GP96 drives exacerbation of secondary bacterial pneumonia following influenza A virus infection

T. Sumitomo, M. Nakata, S. Nagase, Y. Takahara, M. Honda-Ogawa, Y. Mori, M. Yamaguchi, S. Okamoto, S. Kawabata

This study shows that GP96 promotes pneumococcal adherence to IAV-infected epithelial cells, leading to bacterial pneumonia, and that inhibiting GP96 reduces lung infection and pathology.

Transcriptomic profiling of Streptococcus pyogenes M1T1 strain in a mouse model of necrotizing fasciitis

Y. Hirose, M. Yamaguchi, D. Okuzaki, D. Motooka, H. Hamamoto, T. Hanada, T. Sumitomo, M. Nakata, S. Kawabata

This study identifies S. pyogenes gene-expression changes in a mouse necrotizing fasciitis model, revealing upregulation of virulence factors and downregulation of oxidative-stress response genes.

Streptococcus pneumoniae evades host cell phagocytosis and limits host mortality through its cell wall anchoring protein PfbA

M. Yamaguchi, Y. Hirose, M. Takemura, M. Ono, T. Sumitomo, M. Nakata, Y. Terao, S. Kawabata

This paper investigates the role of PfbA in Streptococcus pneumoniae pathogenesis, finding that it inhibits phagocytosis and modulates host inflammation, with differential effects in pneumonia and sepsis models.
