    Abstract Vulvovaginal candidiasis (VVC) is a common mucosal disease, caused primarily by Candida albicans that affects up to 75% of women of childbearing age. The pathogenesis of VVC and recurrent VVC (RVVC) is largely understood after decades of research. In this regard, an immunopathological response involving the migration of neutrophils that become dysfunctional (anergic) in the vaginal environment leads to the symptomatic conditions. However, immunotherapeutic strategies to correct the immunopathogenesis are still elusive. Much of the mechanistic discoveries have been uncovered using the established mouse model of chronic VVC. This chapter details the methods widely used for the mouse model of experimental VVC and associated outcome measures of the immunopathologic response and resulting symptomatic condition and focuses further on assays used to demonstrate "neutrophil anergy" in the model. These methods may serve as a source or resource for further experimentation with the ultimate goal to reduce or eliminate VVC/RVVC.

    Abstract The ultrashort (10s of femtoseconds) X-ray pulses generated by X-ray free electron lasers enable the measurement of X-ray diffraction and spectroscopic data from radiation-sensitive metalloenzymes at room temperature while mostly avoiding the effects of radiation damage usually encountered when performing such experiments at synchrotron sources. Here we discuss an approach to measure both X-ray emission and X-ray crystallographic data at the same time from the same sample volume. The droplet-on-tape setup described allows for efficient sample use and the integration of different reaction triggering options in order to conduct time-resolved studies with limited sample amounts. The approach is illustrated by two examples, photosystem II that catalyzes the light-driven oxidation of water to oxygen, and isopenicillin N synthase, an enzyme that catalyzes the double ring cyclization of a tripeptide precursor into the β-lactam isopenicillin and can be activated by oxygen exposure. We describe the necessary steps to obtain microcrystals of both proteins as well as the operation procedure for the drop-on-tape setup and details of the data acquisition and processing involved in this experiment. At the end, we present how the combination of time-resolved X-ray emission spectra and diffraction data can be used to improve the knowledge about the enzyme reaction mechanism.

    Abstract With the recent advances in serial crystallography methods at both synchrotron and X-ray free electron laser sources, more details of intermediate or transient states of the catalytic reactions are being revealed structurally. These structural studies of reaction dynamics drive the need for on-line in crystallo spectroscopy methods to complement the crystallography experiment. The recent applications of combined spectroscopy and crystallography methods enable on-line determination of in crystallo reaction kinetics and structures of catalytic intermediates, sample integrity, and radiation-induced sample modifications, if any, as well as heterogeneity of crystals from different preparations or sample batches. This review describes different modes of spectroscopy that are combined with the crystallography experiment at both synchrotron and X-ray free-electron laser facilities, and the complementary information that each method can provide to facilitate the structural study of enzyme catalysis and protein dynamics.

    Abstract Disease is a complex outcome that can occur as a result of pathogen-mediated damage, host-mediated damage or both. This has led to the revolutionary concept of the damage response framework (DRF) that defines microbial virulence as a function of host immunity. The DRF outlines six scenarios (classes) of host damage or beneficial outcomes, depending on the microbe and the strength of the immune response.
