Example sentences for: monocytogenes

How can you use “monocytogenes” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

  • We were therefore particularly interested to see whether these virulence-specific responses would be similar in intestinal epithelial cells, the normal first site of L. monocytogenes infection.

  • This response is not specific to intestinal epithelial cells, as a similar suite of genes is induced in promyelocytic THP1 cells infected by wild-type L. monocytogenes for 2 hours [ 19].

  • The pathway of infection by L. monocytogenes is initiated by binding of bacterial cell surface molecules (including the internalins InlA, and InlB) to specific receptors on the surface of the intestinal epithelia such as E-cadherin in the case of InlA [ 1, 2, 3], and Met or gC1qR for InlB [ 4, 5].

  • Overall, the time course of cellular events following L. monocytogenes infection in Caco-2 cells closely parallels the time course reported for macrophage-like cell lines and other epithelial cell lines [ 16].

  • To this end, we have examined the global transcriptional response of a human intestinal epithelial cell line, Caco-2, to infection by L. monocytogenes and isogenic mutants which are disrupted in the actA or prfA gene.
