. In connection with the growth of resistance of pathogens of pyoinflammatory infections (PII) to antibiotics, physicians began to use bacteriophages, which are widespread where there are homologous bacteria.

Vibrio parahaemolyticus is a foodborne pathogen that is frequently isolated from a variety of seafood. To control this pathogenic Vibrio spp., the implementation of bacteriophages in aquaculture and food industries have shown a promising alternative to ...

Comparative genomics of Shiga toxin encoding bacteriophages [PDF]
Background Stx bacteriophages are responsible for driving the dissemination of Stx toxin genes (stx) across their bacterial host range. Lysogens carrying Stx phages can cause severe, lifethreatening disease and Stx toxin is an integral virulence factor.

Bacteriophage effect on parasitism resistance [PDF]
Many studies have shown that the protection of the host $\it{Acyrthosiphon~pisum}$ (Hemiptera, Aphididae) against the parasitoid $\it{Aphidius~ervi}$ (Hymenoptera, Braconidae) is conferred by the interaction between the secondary endosymbiont $\it{Hamiltonella~defensa}$ and the bacteriophage $\it{APSE}$ ($\it{Acyrthosiphon~pisum}$ secondary ...

Targeted protein degradation in oncology: novel therapeutic opportunity for solid tumours?
Current anticancer therapies are limited by the occurrence of resistance and undruggability of most proteins. Targeted protein degraders are novel, promising agents that trigger the selective degradation of previously undruggable proteins through the recruitment of the ubiquitin–proteasome machinery. Their mechanism of action raises exciting challenges,

The Potential of Phage Therapy in Sepsis
Sepsis remains a difficult clinical challenge, since our understanding of its immunopathology is incomplete and no efficacious treatment currently exists. Its earlier stage results from an uncontrolled inflammatory response to bacteria while in the later

A mechanical model of bacteriophage DNA ejection [PDF]
Single molecule experiments on bacteriophages show an exponential scaling for the dependence of mobility on the length of DNA within the capsid. It has been suggested that this could be due to the "capstan mechanism" -- the exponential amplification of friction forces that result when a rope is wound around a cylinder as in a ship's capstan.

Extensive horizontal gene transfer during Staphylococcus aureus co-colonization in vivo. [PDF]
Staphylococcus aureus is a commensal and major pathogen of humans and animals. Comparative genomics of S. aureus populations suggests that colonization of different host species is associated with carriage of mobile genetic elements (MGE), particularly ...
