Virulence factors are preserved within carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii clades
VirulenceCarbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (CRAB) is an important threat to hospitalized patients. The virulence of A. baumannii varies between strains and geographic locations, which is believed to be related to its genetic plasticity. A comprehensive

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.A transparent, laser‐microscribed glass platform enables cancer diagnosis within 1 h—much faster than histology, which takes days, and free from the chemical or contrast risks of MRI or CT scans. The antibody‐functionalized rough glass surface captures viable cancer cells directly from suspension, allowing instant optical readout and offering a rapid ...

Group B Streptococcus Infections in Non-Pregnant Adults, Italy, 2015–2019
PathogensGroup B Streptococcus (GBS, Streptococcus agalactiae) is a pathogen of increasing importance in adults. Severe and invasive cases in non-pregnant adults were collected during the period 2015–2019 by voluntary-based surveillance. In total, 108 GBS strains

Persisters show heritable phenotype and generate bacterial heterogeneity and noise in protein expression [PDF]
, 2009 Persisters are a small subpopulation of bacteria that survive a lethal concentration of antibiotic without antibiotic resistance genes. Isolation of persisters from normally dividing population is considered difficult due to their slow growth, low ...

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.In this study, we produced HfN‐based nanoparticles via femtosecond laser ablation in acetone. The nanoparticles exhibit a red‐shifted plasmonic resonance in the NIR‐I window, colloidal stability after coating with polyethyleneglycol, and excellent biocompatibility. The photothermal and X‐ray sensitization therapeutic effects were demonstrated for tumor

Tissue Engineered Human Elastic Cartilage From Primary Auricular Chondrocytes for Ear Reconstruction
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Despite over three decades of research, no tissue‐engineered solution for auricular reconstruction in microtia patients has reached clinical translation. The key challenge lies in generating functional elastic cartilage ex vivo. Here, we integrate synergistic cell‐biomaterial strategies to engineer auricular grafts with mechanical and histological ...
