Bottom‐up Strategies for Generating Polymer Protocells That Mimic Cellular Communication

open access: yesChemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
This review focuses on polymeric protocells produced using a bottom‐up approach. Polymer‐based assemblies guarantee stability and designability by adjusting the properties of the amphiphilic copolymers used. The review covers protocell architectures, production, and their intra‐ and intercellular communication mechanisms.

Targeting Class A and C Serine \u3b2-Lactamases with a Broad-Spectrum Boronic Acid Derivative [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Production of \u3b2-lactamases (BLs) is the most widespread resistance mechanism adopted by bacteria to fight \u3b2-lactam antibiotics. The substrate spectrum of BLs has become increasingly broad, posing a serious health problem. Thus, there is an urgent

Biomarkers of Drug‐Induced Kidney Injury: Use in Clinical Trials and Recent Examples of Impact on Drug Development

open access: yesClinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
This manuscript describes the scope of implementation and impact of a regulatory agency‐qualified panel of six urine biomarkers on drug development, the process for which was conducted and funded by the Critical Path Institute, the Foundation for the National Institutes of Health, and the United States Food and Drug Administration.

Rare Plasmid-Mediated AmpC Beta-Lactamase DHA-1 Located on Easy Mobilized IS26-Related Genetic Element Detected in Escherichia coli from Livestock and Food in Germany

open access: yesMicroorganisms
AmpC beta-lactamases cause resistance to third-generation cephalosporins, including beta-lactamase inhibitors. In Escherichia coli from the German food production chain, the majority of AmpC beta-lactamase activity can be attributed to plasmid-mediated ...

Biofilm is a major virulence determinant in bacterial colonization of chronic skin ulcers independently from the multidrug resistant phenotype [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Bacterial biofilm is a major factor in delayed wound healing and high levels of biofilm production have been repeatedly described in multidrug resistant organisms (MDROs).

Interpretation of in vitro concentration‐response data for risk assessment and regulatory decision‐making: Report from the 2022 IWGT quantitative analysis expert working group meeting

open access: yesEnvironmental and Molecular Mutagenesis, EarlyView.
Abstract Quantitative risk assessments of chemicals are routinely performed using in vivo data from rodents; however, there is growing recognition that non‐animal approaches can be human‐relevant alternatives. There is an urgent need to build confidence in non‐animal alternatives given the international support to reduce the use of animals in toxicity ...

Previous antibiotic exposure increases risk of infection with extended-spectrum-β-lactamase- and AmpC-producing Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae in pediatric patients [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The objective of this study was to determine whether antibiotic exposure is associated with extended-spectrum-beta-lactamase- or AmpC-producing Escherichia coli or Klebsiella pneumoniae infections in children.
