Smart, Bio‐Inspired Polymers and Bio‐Based Molecules Modified by Zwitterionic Motifs to Design Next‐Generation Materials for Medical Applications

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Bio‐based and (semi‐)synthetic zwitterion‐modified novel materials and fully synthetic next‐generation alternatives show the importance of material design for different biomedical applications. The zwitterionic character affects the physiochemical behavior of the material and deepens the understanding of chemical interaction mechanisms within the ...

Detection of virulence genes, antibiotic resistance genes and antibiotic resistance of Escherichia coli isolated from diarrheic lambs in Anhui Province, China

Pesquisa Veterinária Brasileira
: Lamb diarrhea seriously restricts the development of the sheep industry. Infectious pathogens often cause diarrhea, and E. coli isolates are highly distributed in infectious diarrhea. The study aimed to investigate the prevalence of pathogenic E.

Day-to-day dynamics of commensal Escherichia coli in Zimbabwean cows evidence temporal fluctuations within a host-specific population structure [PDF]

, 2017
To get insights into the temporal pattern of commensal Escherichia coli populations, we sampled the feces of four healthy cows from the same herd in the Hwange District of Zimbabwe daily over 25 days. The cows had not received antibiotic treatment during

RNA‐Micelles as Self‐Assembling Structures for Efficient Co‐Delivery of Synergistic siRNA and Nucleoside Analogues to Treat CRC Lung Metastasis

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Two kinds of self‐assembled RNA micelles were used to co‐deliver synergistic siRNA and nucleoside analogues for the treatment of colorectal cancer lung metastases. Near‐complete elimination of lung cancer metastases was confirmed in an orthotopic lung metastasis model constructed using human colorectal cancer lung metastases patient surgical samples to

Cardiac‐Derived ECM Microspheres for Enhanced hiPSC‐CMs Maturation

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Cardiac extracellular matrix microspheres derived from decellularized porcine heart provide a biomimetic 3D microenvironment for human induced pluripotent stem cell–derived cardiomyocytes (hiPSC‐CMs). This platform supports short‐ and long‐term culture, enhances structural organization, and promotes electrophysiological and functional maturation of ...

Antibiotic-resistance and virulence-related genes in commercially bottled natural mineral waters

BMC Microbiology
Background To date, the presence of antibiotics resistant genes (ARGs) and virulence-related genes (VRGs) has been evidenced in several surface waters, including natural surface water and wastewater, as well as drinking water.
