Outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) and their therapeutic potential as anti-infectious agents

open access: yesNano Trends
Outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) derived from Gram-negative bacteria have emerged as promising therapeutic agents for combating infectious diseases. These small, spherical structures carry diverse cargo molecules, including virulence factors, antigens, and

Genetic Susceptibility to Fungal Infections and Links to Human Ancestry

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2021
Over the ages, fungi have associated with different parts of the human body and established symbiotic associations with their host. They are mostly commensal unless there are certain not so well-defined factors that trigger the conversion to a pathogenic
