Addressing low-density malaria infections in India and other endemic part of the world-the opportune time?
Crit Rev Microbiol. 2024 Apr 17:1-17. doi: 10.1080/1040841X.2024.2339267. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTShifting from high- to low-malaria transmission accompanies a higher proportion of asymptomatic low-density malaria infections (LDMI). Currently, several endemic countries, such as India, are experiencing this shift as it is striving to eliminate malaria. LDMI is a complex concept for which there are several important questions yet unanswered on its natural history, infectiousness, epidemiology, and pathological and clinical impact. India is on the right path to eliminating malaria, but it is facing the LDMI problem. A b...

The role of Epstein-Barr virus in autoimmune and autoinflammatory diseases
Crit Rev Microbiol. 2024 Apr 18:1-21. doi: 10.1080/1040841X.2024.2344114. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTEpstein-Barr Virus (EBV), a dsDNA herpesvirus, is believed to play a significant role in exacerbating and potentially triggering autoimmune and autoinflammatory maladies. Around 90% of the world is infected with the virus, which establishes latency within lymphocytes. EBV is also known to cause infectious mononucleosis, a self-limited flu-like illness, in adolescents. EBV is often reactivated and it employs several mechanisms of evading the host immune system. It has also been implicated in inducing host immune dysfuncti...

The crosstalk between SUMOylation and immune system in host-pathogen interactions
Crit Rev Microbiol. 2024 Apr 15:1-23. doi: 10.1080/1040841X.2024.2339259. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTPathogens can not only cause infectious diseases, immune system diseases, and chronic diseases, but also serve as potential triggers or initiators for certain tumors. They directly or indirectly damage human health and are one of the leading causes of global deaths. Small ubiquitin-like modifier (SUMO) modification, a type of protein post-translational modification (PTM) that occurs when SUMO groups bond covalently to particular lysine residues on substrate proteins, plays a crucial role in both innate and adaptive immun...

Periodontitis increases the risk of gastrointestinal dysfunction: an update on the plausible pathogenic molecuar mechanisms
Crit Rev Microbiol. 2024 Apr 11:1-31. doi: 10.1080/1040841X.2024.2339260. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTPeriodontitis is an immuno-inflammatory disease of the soft tissues surrounding the teeth. Periodontitis is linked to many communicable and non-communicable diseases such as diabetes, cardiovascular disease, rheumatoid arthritis, and cancers. The oral-systemic link between periodontal disease and systemic diseases is attributed to the spread of inflammation, microbial products and microbes to distant organ systems. Oral bacteria reach the gut via swallowed saliva, whereby they induce gut dysbiosis and gastrointestinal dy...

Ferroptosis, from the virus point of view: opportunities and challenges
Crit Rev Microbiol. 2024 Apr 8:1-18. doi: 10.1080/1040841X.2024.2340643. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTFerroptosis is a new type of cell death, which is mainly dependent on the formation and accumulation of reactive oxygen species and lipid peroxides mediated by iron. It is distinct from other forms of regulation of cell death in morphology, immunology, biochemistry, and molecular biology. Various cell death mechanisms have been observed in many viral infections, and virus-induced cell death has long been considered as a double-edged sword that can inhibit or aggravate viral infections. However, understanding of the role o...
