Autopenetration bakterieller Effektorproteine und die Modulation der Signalwege in zellulären Barrieren
Wir konnten zahlreiche T3SS-abhängige Effektoren Gram-negativer Pathogene als ’zell-penetrierende Effektorproteine (CPE)’ identifizieren. CPE aus E. coli, Yersinia und Shigella werden hinsichtlich ihrer Aufnahme, des intrazellulären ’traffickings’, der Modulation zellulärer Signalwege, der Möglichkeiten des Transports heterologen cargos und ihres Effekts auf zelluläre Barrieren (2-D und 3-D) mit und ohne ’shear stress’ charakterisiert. Zusätzlich untersuchen wir therapeutische Wirkungen in verschiedenen Modellen für Autoimmunkrankheiten in der Maus.
