Disrupting bacterial communication signals to treat diseases is not always beneficial. This is what a new study led by @KimInGeneva (#UNIGE} and @HarisAntypas (@NTUsg) shows. ow.ly/KHFU50Yk5iz

I’m excited to share that this study I am first author from the lab of @KimInGeneva (three continents effort!) is out!
E. faecalis-derived lactic acid suppresses macrophage activation, enabling persistent and polymicrobial wound infections.

Getting the spiderwebs out to excitedly share our new work @KimInGeneva lab. We studied how Enterococci use lactic acid to suppress the inflammatory response and promote virulence.
biorxiv.org/content/10.110… It is now under review, stay tuned for a revised version when published.=)

Congratulations to @theZhiRen from @PennDentalMed for winning the @FEMSMicrobes best ECR talk award at the 7th International Aegean Conference on Model Hosts! 🥳 He gave a killer talk on Selenomonas sputigena. A very cool🦠.

Calling all Enterococcal researchers & enthusiasts! 🦠We've really appreciated the Enterococcal tools available @Biocyc, especially with upgraded curation, so I'm happy to spread the good word to those who are still out there.
Ani (Anahit) Penesyan@anibio
Check out the recent @BioCyc release, which also includes newly curated Tier 2 databases for Enterococcus faecalis V583 and OG1RF. A big shoutout to @KimInGeneva and @josealemos for their guidance in navigating enterococcal research!

@BriegelAriane Belated congratulations! (Great to see you today! Now, time for a hamburger.😁)

Our previously preprinted work on E. faecalis HtrA is now out @PLOSGenetics. A project close to my ❤️, started in 🇸🇬 by Adeline Yong and finished in🇨🇭 by @CristinaColome8 and supported by an international cast! journals.plos.org/plosgenetics/a…
Kimberly Kline 🏔@KimInGeneva
The latest preprint from the lab is up. Here we asked how the cell responds when pilus biogenesis goes off the rails in E. faecalis. 😱 Come for the chaperone/protease action, stay for the WEIRD morphologies & two component system induction. 👇

We're still pretty excited about all the new insights gained from this scRNAseq study of Enterococcus faecalis wound infection, now up on @eLife ! 🤓😎 A super awesome collaboration with @_cenk, @Guillou76, and more. 🤠 doi.org/10.7554/eLife.…
Kimberly Kline 🏔@KimInGeneva
In our ongoing efforts to understand Enterococcal pathogenesis in wound infections, we teamed up with @_cenk and @ThibaultLab to dissect the host response at single cell resolution. New insights abound! 👇🤩
