ABSTRACT The article describes the outcomes of a single‐centre investigation on the use of OZOILE to improve the healing process in patients with chronic diabetic ulcers. This is a non‐randomised interventional study which aims to assess the differences between two groups (total 200 patients) by evaluating healing time at 15, 30, 45, 60, 75 and 90 days.

Current status and future perspectives of multi‐modal bacteria‐based cancer therapies
Bacteria exhibit inherent tumour‐targeting capabilities, particularly thriving in hypoxic tumour microenvironments (TMEs) and activating potent anti‐tumour immune responses through pathogen‐associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) and immunomodulation.

Development of an automated, high-throughput bactericidal assay that measures cellular respiration as a survival readout for Neisseria meningitidis [PDF]
Complement-mediated bactericidal activity has long been regarded as the serological correlate of protective immunity against Neisseria meningitidis. This was affirmed in 2005 at a WHO-sponsored meningococcal serology standardization workshop.

Antibody-Mediated Bacteriolysis: Enhanced Killing of Cyclacillin-Treated Bacteria
SummaryIncubation of Escherichia coli with sublethal concentrations of the semisynthetic penicillins cyclacillin and ampicil-lin substantially increased the susceptibility of the bacteria to subsequent lysis by serum antibody or specifically immunized murine spleen cells in the presence of guinea pig complement.

Tracing the evolutionary pathway: on the origin of mitochondria and eukaryogenesis
This study examines the stepwise transition from archaeal–bacterial associations to the emergence of eukaryotic cells. Metabolic cooperation and endosymbiosis fostered ecological and genetic integration, with extensive gene transfer reshaping host biology.

Requirement of endogenous tumor necrosis factor/cachectin for recovery from experimental peritonitis [PDF]
By intrasplenic immunization we raised a rat mAb (mAb V1q; IgG2a, kappa) with a potent neutralizing activity against natural mouse TNF (1 microgram/ml mAb V1q/100 U/ml TNF). mAb V1q was used to study the role of endogenous TNF in experimental peritonitis

The Neglected Role of GSDMD C‐Terminal in Counteracting Type I Interferon Signaling
The C‐terminal domain of Gasdermin D (GSDMD‐CT) shows functions beyond pyroptosis. GSDMD‐CT negatively regulates IFN‐I signaling during viral infection by triggering autophagic degradation of RIG‐I and TBK1. GSDMD‐CT interacts with retinoic acid‐inducible gene‐I (RIG‐I) and tank‐binding kinase 1 (TBK1), leading to TRIM28‐mediated ubiquitination and ...

Guanylate-binding Protein 1 (GBP1) contributes to the immunity of human mesenchymal stromal cells against toxoplasma gondii [PDF]
Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) have recently been shown to play important roles in mammalian host defenses against intracellular pathogens, but the molecular mechanism still needs to be clarified.
