The Coliform Kind: E. coli and Its “Cousins” The Good, the Bad, and the Deadly [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Even though some intestinal bacteria strains are pathogenic and even deadly, most coliforms strains still show evidence of being one of God’s “very good” creations. In fact, bacteria serve an intrinsic role in the colon of the human body.

Short peptide perturbs spermatogenesis via immune microenvironment dysregulation and mitochondrial imbalance

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
In the blood–testis barrier, occludin is crucial for tight junctions. This study demonstrates that occludin‐targeting short peptides disrupt junction integrity, inducing immune cell infiltration, tumor necrosis factor‐α/interleukin‐6 secretion and mitochondrial dysfunction, ultimately triggering apoptosis.

Analysis of the regulation of undecaprenyl diphosphate dephosphorylation in Escherichia coli

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
BacA, PgpB, and YbjG phosphatases are involved in undecaprenyl phosphate (C55P) synthesis in Escherichia coli. We analyzed the lipid contents and the gene expression in the gene‐disruption strains. Undecaprenyl diphosphate (C55PP) level increased in the bacA, ybjG double‐disruption strain, but C55P levels were similar in all strains.

A PANoptosis‐Based Signature for Survival and Immune Predication in Glioblastoma Multiforme

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective PANoptosis is a concept of total cell death characterized by pyroptosis, apoptosis, and necroptosis. We aimed to explore the clinical significance of PANoptosis‐related genes (PARGs) in glioblastoma multiforme (GBM). Methods Expression profiles of GBM were downloaded from the XENA database as a training dataset to construct a ...

Medical Scope of Biofilm and Quorum Sensing during Biofilm Formation: Systematic Review

open access: yesBacteria
Biofilms are accumulations of microorganisms in an extracellular polymeric substance matrix which are composed of polysaccharides, proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids. Many bacteria can switch between a planktonic form and a biofilm form.
