The genus Paracoccidioides includes Paracoccidioides lutzii and the Paracoccidioides brasiliensis complex, which comprises four phylogenetic species. A key feature distinguishing planktonic growth from biofilm is the presence of a 3D extracellular matrix

Multi‐Targeting Carnosic Acid Kills Drug‐Resistant Helicobacter pylori With Narrow‐Spectrum Activity
Carnosic acid selectively eradicates drug‐resistant Helicobacter pylori through a multi‐targeted mechanism involving urease inhibition, membrane disruption, and biofilm eradication. It exhibits no detectable resistance, potent in vivo efficacy, and minimal impact on gut microbiota, positioning it as a promising narrow‐spectrum lead compound against ...

The fitness between bacterial adhesins and target cell receptors, determining bacterial adherence to epithelial cells in urinary tract infections, was shown to influence also the interaction with human polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNL).

Abstract Plant pathogenic bacteria cause massive losses in agriculture and damage to natural plant habitats. Bacterial pathogens not only reduce crop production, but they also reduce crop quality by releasing toxins into the environment. Pathogenic bacteria that invade plant tissues must overcome the plant's defense mechanisms. Plants possess an innate

ABSTRACT Introduction Staphylococcus species are frequently isolated from the sinonasal niche of chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) patients. While Staphylococcus aureus is often associated with recalcitrant CRS, Staphylococcus epidermidis and Staphylococcus lugdunensis are largely deemed commensal.

Citrus hystrix DC. (kaffir lime) peel was dried and subjected to ethanolic extract. The GC‐MS analysis showed the presence of significant phyto‐ingredients. Pharmacokinetic and ADMET filters were applied to major constituents, and molecular docking, Gene Ontology (GO), and KEGG pathway enrichment analyses on mechanistic plausibility were also performed.

Feature of adhesins expressed in Mycobacterium intracellulare
The Mycobacterium avium MAC complex includes two closely related species Mycobacterium avium and Mycobacterium intracellulare (Mi). These non-tuberculous mycobacteria are opportunistic pathogens in humans and responsible of severe diseases in a wide ...

Circulating antigen‐reactive CD4+ T cells and antibody responses in serum and lavage against the ETEC noncanonical virulence factors EatA, EtpA, and YghJ were found in volunteers experimentally infected with ETEC. This documents the immunogenicity of these antigens and supports their further evaluation as ETEC vaccine candidates.

Quantification of Staphylococcus aureus cell surface adhesins using flow cytometry.
The initiation of many infectious diseases involves specific adhesion of bacteria to host tissue proteins and carbohydrates. Staphylococcus aureus is known to bind specifically to several proteins in the extracellular matrix (ECM).
