Study of the Factors Involved in the Adhesion Process of Salmonella enterica Enteritidis, Escherichia coli, and Staphylococcus aureus to the Surface of Apple, Arugula, Cucumber, and Strawberry

Foods
Bacterial contamination of fresh produce remains a global food safety concern, with pathogens such as Salmonella, Escherichia coli, and Staphylococcus aureus frequently implicated in foodborne outbreaks. Understanding the physicochemical factors involved

TRAIL‐PEG‐Apt‐PLGA nanosystem as an aptamer‐targeted drug delivery system potential for triple‐negative breast cancer therapy using in vivo mouse model

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Aptamers are used both therapeutically and as targeting agents in cancer treatment. We developed an aptamer‐targeted PLGA–TRAIL nanosystem that exhibited superior therapeutic efficacy in NOD/SCID breast cancer models. This nanosystem represents a novel biotechnological drug candidate for suppressing resistance development in breast cancer.

A microfluidic platform for in situ investigation of biofilm formation and its treatment under controlled conditions

Journal of Nanobiotechnology, 2020
Background Studying bacterial adhesion and early biofilm development is crucial for understanding the physiology of sessile bacteria and forms the basis for the development of novel antimicrobial biomaterials. Microfluidics technologies can be applied in

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...

Bacterial Vaginosis Bacterial and Epithelial Cell Adhesion Molecules

Gynecology Obstetrics & Reproductive Medicine, 2013
Lactobacilli are member of normal vaginal flora. They maintain low pH of vaginal discharge by metabolising glycogen in vaginal epithelial cell and protects the vagina against the pathogenic microorganisms.

Biocontamination in the dairy industry: The effect of raw milk conditioning film on the adhesion of Escherichia coli

Czech Journal of Food Sciences
Conditioning films on surfaces employed in the dairy industry serve as the precursors to the formation of pathogenic biofilms that impact product quality and consumer safety. Conditioning films have been studied from several aspects.

Strategies in anti-adhesion therapy: A review article

Al-Mustansiriyah Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences, 2022
Bacterial diseases are an important cause of mortality and morbidity worldwide. The Improper and uncontrolled use of antibiotics contribute to the bacterial resistance to antibiotics. It is well known that the antibiotics stop bacterial infections by

The aggregation of Brucella abortus occurs under microaerobic conditions and promotes desiccation tolerance and biofilm formation [PDF]

, 2012
Brucella abortus causes brucellosis mainly in cattle. The infection is transmitted to humans by ingestion of animal products or direct contact with infected material.

Hijacking emergency granulopoiesis: Neutrophil ontogeny and reprogramming in cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Neutrophils are highly plastic innate immune cells; their functions in cancer extend beyond the tumour microenvironment. This Review summarises current understanding of neutrophil maturation and heterogeneity and highlights tumour‐induced granulopoiesis as a systemic programme that expands immature, immunosuppressive neutrophils via tumour‐derived ...

Influence of biomaterial nanotopography on the adhesive and elastic properties of Staphylococcus aureus cells [PDF]

, 2016
Despite the well-known beneficial effects of biomaterial nanopatterning on host tissue integration, the influence of controlled nanoscale topography on bacterial colonisation and infection remains unknown.
