The annual list of “Highly-cited researchers” identifies scientists who have demonstrated a significant impact in their chosen field over the last ten years through the publication of several highly-cited papers. This year, the Braunschweig Helmholtz Centre for Infection Research (HZI) has two researchers on the list: bioinformatician Prof Alice McHardy and biochemist Prof Jörg Vogel. The ranking by Clarivate Analytics, a company specialising in bibliometric data, includes more than 6,100 researchers.

Infections with two pathogens pose a serious threat in the clinics. Researchers from Würzburg and Jena have developed a technique that provides new insights into this process and can be used as an early warning system. The research results have now been published in the journal Cell Reports.

Scientists at TWINCORE have succeeded in identifying two factors that protect liver cells of mice from infection with the hepatitis C virus (HCV). These are Cd302, a lectin, and Cr1l, a complement receptor-like protein. The research outlined in this study lays the foundation for the future development of a mouse model for HCV vaccine research. The results are published in the journal Science Advances.

Rasterelektronenmikroskopische Aufnahmen der isolierten Prevotella-Spezies

News

The digestive tract is densely populated with bacteria and other microorganisms. This intestinal microbiota helps the host utilise nutrients. Particularly plant fibres can only be broken down and absorbed with the help of intestinal bacteria. The composition of the microbiota is dynamic and depends, among other factors, on the diet. Scientists at the Helmholtz Centre for Infection Research (HZI) in Braunschweig have shown that the utilisation of the fibre arabinoxylan enables bacteria of the genus Prevotella to play a dominant role in the microbial ecosystem. For the study, the Braunschweig researchers cooperated with the Max Planck Unit for the Science of Pathogens in Berlin. The scientists published their results in the journal Cell Host & Microbe.
