Staphylococcus aureus Biofilm-Associated Infections: Have We Found a Clinically Relevant Target?

Staphylococcus aureus is one of the most diverse bacterial pathogens. This is reflected in its ability to cause a wide array of infections and in genotypic and phenotypic differences between clinical isolates that extend beyond their antibiotic ...

Magneto‐Sono‐Enhanced Nanozyme Catalysis Drives ROS‐Mediated Pathogen Killing and Mitophagy‐Linked Inflammation Control in Bacterial Pneumonia

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Nebulized BN@NF nanozymes integrate boron nanosheets with Nd‐doped iron phosphide to form a sono‐magneto‐responsive Z‐scheme heterostructure. Under ultrasound and magnetic activation, BN@NF amplifies ROS generation, eradicates bacteria, disrupts biofilms, and reshapes pulmonary inflammation through NF‐κB suppression, mitophagy promotion, and M1‐to‐M2 ...

Smartphone‐Guided Visible Light Modulation of RSNOs for Antimicrobial Activity via Controlled Nitric Oxide Release

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A light‐activated catheter insert combines antimicrobial blue light with nitric oxide release to generate complementary oxidative and nitrosative stress, producing potent broad‐spectrum antimicrobial activity. The approach achieves greater than 4‐log reductions in bacterial and fungal viability and significantly reduces Staphylococcus aureus ...

STING/Type I Interferon Pathway Activation Confers Multimodal Therapeutic Benefits in Osteomyelitis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
STING/type I interferon signaling counteracts osteomyelitis through coordinated control of pain, bone destruction, and abscess formation. It inhibits pathogen‐induced nociceptor activation, restrains osteoclast‐mediated bone resorption, and suppresses IL‐1β‐driven neutrophil recruitment.

Bioenergetic Materials for Tissue Regeneration: Modulating Metabolism to Promote Cellular Anabolism

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Bioenergetic materials (BEMs) modulate cellular metabolism to promote tissue regeneration. Their principal mechanisms of action include metabolic substrate supplementation, metabolic enzyme modulation, organelle transfer, electrical current regulation, redox homeostasis modulation, and oxygen tension modulation.

Conjugated Polymer‐Microbe Interactions Trigger Regulatory Reprogramming for Enhanced Bioelectrocatalysis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Conjugated polymer‐supported bioelectrochemical systems are shown to enhance microbial electrosynthesis by triggering coordinated electrochemical, transcriptional, post‐transcriptional (sRNA), metabolic, and protein‐level responses. Integrated multi‐omics and electrochemical analyses reveal selective physiological remodeling associated with improved ...

Quantification of Microbial Biofilm Biomass

The most used assays to quantify the total biomass of microbial biofilms are based on colorimetry and the biofilm mass itself. Among the colorimetric methods, staining with crystal violet and safranin stands out.

Thermal Shifts Dominate Single‐Gene Responses to Transcription‐Targeting Antibiotics

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Thermal shifts reshape bacterial responses to transcription‐targeting antibiotics. In E. coli, temperature can dominate antibiotic‐induced genome‐wide expression, particularly outside 30°C–39°C, through changes in adenosine triphosphate (ATP), nucleoid organization, and drug‐target engagement.
