Anguillicola (Anguillicoides) crassus: Morphometric characteristics and pathogenicity in eels (Anguilla anguilla) in Greece
(2021)Anguillicola (Anguillicoides) crassus is a swimbladder nematode parasite of Anguilla anguilla (Linnaeus, 1758). The present study investigates the morphology and pathogenicity of A. crassus in European eel, as well as, the ... -
Beyond the Microbiome: Germ-ganism? An Integrative Idea for Microbial Existence, Organization, Growth, Pathogenicity, and Therapeutics
(2022)The advances made by microbiome research call for new vocabulary and expansion of our thinking in microbiology. For example, the life-forms presenting in both unicellular and multicellular formats invite us to rethink ... -
First reported isolation of an emerging opportunistic pathogen (Elizabethkingia anophelis) from hospital water systems in Greece
(2018)After the Elizabethkingia anophelis outbreak in Wisconsin, USA, an active search for the detection of the microorganism in hospital water systems from Central and Northern Greece was performed from June to December 2016. ... -
Host proteases as determinants of coronaviral neurotropism and virulence

Intermolecular latency regulates the essential C-terminal signal peptidase and sortase of the Porphyromonas gingivalis type-IX secretion system
(2021)Porphyromonas gingivalis is a keystone pathogen of the human dysbiotic oral microbiome that causes severe periodontitis. It employs a type-IX secretion system (T9SS) to shuttle proteins across the outer membrane (OM) for ... -
Is There a Role for Double J Stent Culture in Contemporary Urology?
(2018)Introduction: To present the incidence of bacterial colonization on ureteral double J stents (DJS); isolate the uropathogens; define the rate of multi-resistant bacteria strains (MRBS) and present their clinical importance. ... -
Klebsiella pneumoniae: Virulence, Biofilm and Antimicrobial Resistance

Mutations conferring colistin resistance development in Acinetobacter baumannii clinical isolates
(2013)The colistin resistance mechanisms in Acinetobacter baumannii are largely unknown. In the present study, we investigated the characteristics and the mechanisms of colistin resistance in two genetically indistinguishable ... -

Structural determinants of tissue tropism and in vivo pathogenicity for the parvovirus minute virus of mice
(2005)Two strains of the parvovirus minute virus of mice (MVM), the immunosuppressive (MVMi) and the prototype (MVMp) strains, display disparate in vitro tropism and in vivo pathogenicity. We report the crystal structures of ...
