Inactivation of the antibacterial and cytotoxic properties of silver ions by biologically relevant compounds [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
There has been a recent surge in the use of silver as an antimicrobial agent in a wide range of domestic and clinical products, intended to prevent or treat bacterial infections and reduce bacterial colonization of surfaces. It has been reported that the

Engineering peptides into antibodies—opportunities and strategies for therapeutic innovation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Peptides and antibodies occupy complementary therapeutic niches. Peptides recognize difficult targets in a compact format, while antibodies add specificity, long half‐life, and effector functions. This review examines strategies that merge both modalities—peptide grafting into loops, terminal and Fc fusions, and bioconjugation—highlighting how ...

Investigation of cell damage of periodontopathic bacteria exposed to silver, zirconium oxide, and silicon oxide nanoparticles as antibacterial agents

open access: yesMicro & Nano Letters, 2023
Antibiotic resistance is one of the biggest public health problems of our time. The nanoparticles are a powerful alternative to these antibiotics. Engineered nanoparticles show toxic effects on bacteria by different mechanisms.

The microbiome in human skin aging

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Age‐related skin changes encompass the well‐known visible phenotypic alterations, together with microbiome dysbiosis and a series of molecular aging hallmarks. These hallmarks characterize not only a fully stablished aged phenotype but also the skin aging process itself.

Photo-induced antibacterial activity of a porphyrin derivative isolated from the harmful dinoflagellate Heterocapsa circularisquama [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The dinoflagellate Heterocapsa circularisquama is highly toxic to bivalves. However, significant toxicity to finfish species has not been reported. We previously found that H. circularisquama has light-dependent haemolytic agents.

Antibiotic-free PHA-based antibacterial materials for bone regeneration [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The current world problem of antibacterial resistance to antibiotics has driven the need to develop new therapeutics as alternatives to antibiotic to prevent and fight infections. In the biomedical field, bone regeneration is one of the applications with

L‐aspartate oxidase provides new insights into fumarate reduction in anaerobic darkness in Synechocystis sp. PCC6803

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Synechocystis strains deficient in succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) secrete more succinate than the WT under dark anaerobic conditions, supporting that SDH then primarily acts as SDH, not as a fumarate reductase. L‐aspartate oxidase (Laspo) from Synechocystis is functional under anaerobic conditions, reducing fumarate to succinate.

Development of an inducer-free, virulence gene promoter-controlled, and fluorescent reporter-labeled CRISPR interference system in Staphylococcus aureus

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum
The dCas9-based Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats (CRISPR) interference (CRISPRi) gene regulation technique requires two components: a catalytically inactive Cas9 protein (dCas9) and a single-guide RNA that targets the gene of ...
