Determination of an Interaction Network between an Extracellular Bacterial Pathogen and the Human Host

Abstract excerpt

Dual RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) offers the promise of determining an interactome at a transcriptional level between a bacterium and the host but has yet to be done on any bacterial infection in human tissue. We performed dual RNA-seq and metabolomics analyses on wounded and infected sites following experimental infection of the arm with H. ducreyi . Our results suggest that H. ducreyi survives in an abscess by...
