Bacterial infections and cancer

open access: yesEMBO reports, 2018
Infections are estimated to contribute to 20% of all human tumours. These are mainly caused by viruses, which explains why a direct bacterial contribution to cancer formation has been largely ignored.

Advances of Antimicrobial Peptide‐Based Biomaterials for the Treatment of Bacterial Infections

open access: yesAdvancement of science, 2023
Owing to the increase in multidrug‐resistant bacterial isolates in hospitals globally and the lack of truly effective antimicrobial agents, antibiotic resistant bacterial infections have increased substantially.

Minimizing treatment-induced emergence of antibiotic resistance in bacterial infections

open access: yesScience, 2022
Treatment of bacterial infections currently focuses on choosing an antibiotic that matches a pathogen’s susceptibility, with less attention paid to the risk that even susceptibility-matched treatments can fail as a result of resistance emerging in ...

Evolution of strain coverage by the multicomponent meningococcal serogroup B vaccine (4CMenB) in France

open access: yesHuman Vaccines & Immunotherapeutics, 2021
The 4CMenB, a protein-based vaccine, was licensed in Europe in 2013 against invasive meningococcal disease caused by serogroup B and is currently implemented in several countries although according to different national strategies.

Phage Therapy for Antibiotic-Resistant Bacterial Infections.

open access: yesAnnual Review of Medicine, 2021
Antibiotic resistance in bacterial pathogens presents a substantial threat to the control of infectious diseases. Development of new classes of antibiotics has slowed in recent years due to pressures of cost and market profitability, and there is a ...

Epigenetics and Bacterial Infections [PDF]

open access: yesCold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Medicine, 2012
Epigenetic mechanisms regulate expression of the genome to generate various cell types during development or orchestrate cellular responses to external stimuli. Recent studies highlight that bacteria can affect the chromatin structure and transcriptional program of host cells by influencing diverse epigenetic factors (i.e., histone modifications, DNA ...

Mesoporous Silica Nanoparticles Decorated with Polycationic Dendrimers for Infection Treatment [PDF]

open access: yesActa Biomaterialia. 68, 261-271 (2018), 2021
This work aims to provide an effective and novel solution for the treatment of infection by using nanovehicles loaded with antibiotics capable of penetrating the bacterial wall, thus increasing the antimicrobial effectiveness. These nanosystems, named "nanoantibiotics", are composed of mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs), which act as nanocarriers ...
