Glyco‐Nanogels for Modulating Pseudomonas aeruginosa Biofilm
Macromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.Nanogels presenting α‐galactose and β‐fucose can significantly alter Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilm dynamics through their interaction with lectins. Application timing is crucial: pre‐treatment reduces biofilm, while treatment after biofilm initiation increases biomass.

FimH and Anti-Adhesive Therapeutics: A Disarming Strategy Against Uropathogens
Antibiotics, 2020 Chaperone-usher fimbrial adhesins are powerful weapons against the uropathogens that allow the establishment of urinary tract infections (UTIs). As the antibiotic therapeutic strategy has become less effective in the treatment of uropathogen-related UTIs,

Inhibition of Pathogen Adhesion by Bacterial Outer Membrane-Coated Nanoparticles.
Angewandte Chemie, 2019 The treatment of bacterial infection is increasingly challenged by the rapid emergence of antibiotic resistance. Among various alternatives, anti-adhesion therapies that interfere with the bacterial adhesion to the host are attractive, as they avoid ...
