Interactions between Bacillus anthracis and Plants May Promote Anthrax Transmission

PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2014
Environmental reservoirs are essential in the maintenance and transmission of anthrax but are poorly characterized. The anthrax agent, Bacillus anthracis was long considered an obligate pathogen that is dormant and passively transmitted in the ...

Risk of Bacillus cereus growth and emetic toxin production in dried mushrooms

Food Risk Assess Europe, Volume 4, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract This experimental study investigates the occurrence of Bacillus cereus in dried mushrooms available on the Czech market and assesses the potential health risks associated with the production of the emetic toxin cereulide. Thirty samples of dried mushrooms of various species and origins were analyzed.

Biomolecular Interaction, Molecular Docking, Antimicrobial, Antioxidant, Antitumor, Cell Cycle Analysis, and Annexin V/PI Assay Efficiency of Some Co (II), Cu (II), Mn (II), Ni (II), Pd (II), and Pt (II) Complexes With a Halogenated Bidentate Schiff Base

Applied Organometallic Chemistry, Volume 39, Issue 12, December 2025.
The ligand and metal complexes have been characterized experimentally and theoretically. Molecular docking studies were performed. The binding affinity toward biomolecules was analyzed. The in vitro antimicrobial (bacteria and fungi) behavior was evaluated. Furthermore, radical scavenging and in vitro anticancer activity, apoptosis, and cell cycle were

Drug Design and Delivery for Intracellular Bacteria: Emerging Paradigms

Drug Development Research, Volume 86, Issue 8, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Intracellular bacteria exploit host cell niches, such as lysosomes, phagosomes, cytosol, entire cells, and even erythrocytes, to evade immune clearance and escape conventional antibiotics. These environments pose numerous therapeutic challenges, including crossing host cell membranes, navigating endosomal trafficking, tolerating acidic and ...
