Mesoporous Catalytic‐Adsorptive Nanoregulator Orchestrates Biofilm eDNA/LPS Disassembly and TLR9/TLR4 Immune Reprogramming to Resolve Diabetic Foot Infections

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Chronic diabetic wounds are hindered by a “dual trap” of biofilm resistance and hyperinflammation. A mesoporous catalytic‐adsorptive nano‐regulator is developed to dismantle this barrier through simultaneous eDNA degradation and LPS sequestration. By silencing TLR4/9‐mediated signaling, the platform clears resilient pathogens and reprograms the immune ...

Global anti-biofilm performance of ZA-related compounds and structures with the most significant anti-biofilm performance.

open access: yes, 2015
Global anti-biofilm performance value of each ZA-related compound calculated as (sum of cell adhesion codes of all concentrations)-(sum of planktonic growth codes of all concentrations). Values equal to 0 were considered without anti-biofilm performance,

Altered Nasal Microbiota in Sinonasal Tumors: A Comparative Analysis of Malignant and Benign Sinonasal Tumors

open access: yesInternational Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Although shifts in nasal microbiota have been well‐documented in inflammatory upper airway conditions, microbiota tumor‐associated alterations remain uncharacterized. This study is the first to compare sinonasal microbiota profiles of patients with malignant tumors (MT), benign tumors (BT), and controls, offering insights into tumor‐

Biofilm Exoproteins From Staphylococcus Species Impede Re‐Epithelialization of Nasal Epithelial Cells During Wound Healing and Cease Ciliary Beat Frequency

open access: yesInternational Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is an inflammatory disease with many different contributing factors, including bacterial infection. CRS patients are typically managed with medical therapies; however, these treatments frequently fail, leaving surgery as the only viable option.

Anti-biofilm and anti-glucosyltransferase effects of nano liposomal plant extracts against Streptococcus mutans

open access: yesScientific Reports
The role of Streptococcus mutans in the initiation of caries is related to its acidogenicity, aciduricity, and polysaccharides extracellular layer production by glucosyltransferases in dental biofilms.

Chronic alcohol consumption compromises gut barrier integrity and promotes endotoxemia: Implications for sepsis susceptibility in immunocompromised hosts

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Chronic alcohol exposure disrupts intestinal barrier integrity, resulting in a leaky gut and enhanced translocation of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and microbial products into the systemic circulation. Alcohol‐induced endotoxemia drives exaggerated pro‐inflammatory responses, mitochondrial damage, and activation of the cGAS–STING pathway, particularly in ...

A study of Clostridium difficile in biofilm mode of growth using the Sorbarod filter system [PDF]

open access: yes
In all ecosystems, bacteria are likely to grow in biofilms, and the organisms making up the natural flora of the colon are considered to be no exception to this. One of the most important hospital-acquired infections is antibiotic associated diarrhoea,

Anti-biofilm potential of phenolic acids: the influence of environmental pH and intrinsic physico-chemical properties

open access: yes, 2016
Phenolic acids are a particular group of small phenolic compounds which have exhibited some anti-biofilm activity, although the link between their activity and their intrinsic pH is not clear.
