“Our results indicate that these temperature sensing RNATs create an additional layer of protection that helps the bacteria colonize their normal habitat in the nose and throat,” says the paper’s first author Hannes Eichner, PhD student at the same department. “Interestingly, we saw that these RNATs do not possess any sequence similarity, but all retain the same thermosensing ability, which indicates that these RNATs have evolved independently to sense the same temperature cue in the nasopharynx to avoid immune killing.”
More research is needed to understand exactly what triggers these pathogens to breach from the mucous membrane into the bloodstream and further into the brain. Future studies encompassing in vivo infection model are warranted to characterize the role of these RNATs during colonization and invasion, the researchers say. ....
