Analysis of morphogenesis and chlamydospore formation by Candida albicans and Candida dubliniensis
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Dental Science, 2010)Candida dubliniensis is the species that is most closely related to Candida albicans. Despite their close phylogenetic relatedness, epidemiological and infection model data suggest that C. albicans is a far more successful ... -
Investigating the effect of skeletal pattern in determining articulator settings for prosthodontic rehabilitation: an in-vivo study
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Dental Science, 2009)During extensive prosthodontic treatment the use of an accurately adjusted articulator is recommended to simulate some mandibular movements. An in-vivo clinical study was undertaken to assess any possible effect of underlying ... -
Transcriptional profiling of suberoylanilide hydroxamic acid (SAHA) regulated genes in mineralizing dental pulp cells at early and late time points
(2015)Dental pulp tissue can be damaged by a range of irritants, however, if the irritation is removed and/or the tooth is adequately restored, pulp regeneration is possible (Mjör and Tronstad, 1974 [1]). At present, dental ... -
A longitudinal study of Staphylococcus aureus colonization in pigs in Ireland.
(2014)The emergence of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) in livestock has refocused attention on S. aureus colonization and transmission in pigs. This study investigated the effect of the S. aureus colonization ... -
What should dental services for people with disabilities be like? Results of an irish delphi panel survey.
(2014)BACKGROUND: This study aimed to generate prioritised goals for oral health services for people with disabilities as a first step in meeting the need for evidence based oral health services for people with disabilities ... -
CONTROL OF BACTERIAL CONTAMINATION OF WASHBASIN TAPS AND OUTPUT WATER USING ECASOL: A ONE YEAR STUDY
(2012)BACKGROUND: Contaminated washbasin taps and output water are an important source of bacteria that may cause nosocomial infection. A five-week pretreatment study of hot and cold water from 15 washbasin taps at Dublin ... -
Water fluoridation, dentition status and bone health of older people in Ireland
(2015)Objective To examine some of the potential benefits and risks of water fluoridation for older adults. Methods This study used ‘The Irish Longitudinal Study on Ageing’, to access a nationally representative sample ... -
Telomeric ORFS in Candida albicans : Does Mediator Tail Wag the Yeast?
(2015)Recent studies of fungal genomes have shown that subtelomeric regions of chromosomes are areas of rapid evolution that facilitate adaptation to novel niches [1]. Several years ago, analysis of the genome of the human ... -
Telomeric ORFs (TLOs) in Candida spp. encode Mediator subunits that regulate distinct virulence traits
(2014)The TLO genes are a family of telomere-associated ORFs in the fungal pathogens Candida albicans and C. dubliniensis that encode a subunit of the Mediator complex with homology to Med2. The more virulent pathogen C. albicans ... -
Global Transcriptome Sequencing Identifies Chlamydospore Specific Markers in Candida albicans and Candida dubliniensis.
(2013)Candida albicans and Candida dubliniensis are pathogenic fungi that are highly related but differ in virulence and in some phenotypic traits. During in vitro growth on certain nutrient-poor media, C. albicans and C. ... -
Emergence of Sequence Type 779 Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) Harboring a Novel Pseudo Staphylococcal Cassette Chromosome mec (SCCmec)-SCC-SCCCRISPR Composite Element in Irish Hospitals.
(2013)Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) has been a major cause of nosocomial infection in Irish hospitals for 4 decades, and replacement of predominant MRSA clones has occurred several times. An MRSA isolate ...
