A Reversible and Dynamic Surface Functionalization for Fluidity Controlled Multivalent Recognition of Lectins and Bacteria

Advanced Science
The paper reports the design of multivalent bacterial receptors based on reversible self‐assembled monolayers (rSAMs) on gold and glass substrates, mimicking the ligand display on host cells and extracellular matrices.

Engineering Osteoimmune Responses with Functionalized Orthopedic Implants for Post‐Operative Osteosarcoma Treatment

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Osteosarcoma is the most common primary bone tumor with limited treatment options and a terrible prognosis. This review provides a comprehensive summary of the recent development of osteoimmunomodulatory implants for post‐operative osteosarcoma treatment, of which the potential utility in evoking durable anti‐osteosarcoma immunity and accelerating bone

Human Lipoproteins at Model Cell Membranes: Effect of Lipoprotein Class on Lipid Exchange

Scientific Reports, 2017
High and low density lipoproteins (HDL and LDL) are thought to play vital roles in the onset and development of atherosclerosis; the biggest killer in the western world. Key issues of initial lipoprotein (LP) interactions at cellular membranes need to be

Effect of CSLM imaging rate on biofilms of P. aeruginosa and S. aureus [PDF]

, 2015
Biofilms are sessile communities of bacteria that can be found in an wide range of environments. Their inhabitants are phenotypically distinct from plank- tonic bacteria and are capable of forming complex, three-dimensional structures.

Multi‐Enzyme Mimetic Molybdenum Nitride Nanozymes Reshape Subgingival Microenvironment for Synergistic Periodontitis Therapy via ROS Regulation and Microbiome Remodeling

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Periodontitis, a chronic inflammatory disease initiated and sustained by plaque microorganisms and host immune response, remains an intractable oral disease and a leading cause of tooth loss worldwide. Traditional mechanical debridement and adjunctive antibiotic or antiseptic therapy often shows limited efficacy due to the complex anatomical ...

Short genome report of cellulose-producing commensal Escherichia coli 1094

Standards in Genomic Sciences, 2018
Bacterial surface colonization and biofilm formation often rely on the production of an extracellular polymeric matrix that mediates cell-cell and cell-surface contacts. In Escherichia coli and many Betaproteobacteria and Gammaproteobacteria cellulose is

Biofilm Development

Microbiology Spectrum, 2015
ABSTRACT During the past decade we have gained much knowledge about the molecular mechanisms that are involved in initiation and termination of biofilm formation. In many bacteria, these processes appear to occur in response to specific environmental cues and result in, respectively, induction or termination of biofilm matrix production via ...

Diversity of Pharmaceuticals Enhances Antibiotic Resistance in the Invertebrate Gut via Biofilm‐Mediated Mechanisms

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Pharmaceutical diversity acts as an independent driver of antibiotic resistance in soil invertebrates. While bulk soil remains unaffected, the collembolan gut microbiome exhibits significant resistance gene enrichment under complex chemical exposure and diurnal warming.

Physicochemical and structural study of iodine loading in amorphous degradable starch microspheres

Carbohydrate Polymer Technologies and Applications
Iodine is a well-established antimicrobial agent, but its clinical use is limited by low chemical stability and adverse effects. This work investigates iodine loading into degradable starch microspheres (DSM), elucidating iodine–starch interactions, and ...

Molecular processes underlying synergistic linuron mineralization in a triple-species bacterial consortium biofilm revealed by differential transcriptomics [PDF]

, 2018
The proteobacteria Variovorax sp. WDL1, Comamonas testosteroni WDL7, and Hyphomicrobium sulfonivorans WDL6 compose a triple-species consortium that synergistically degrades and grows on the phenylurea herbicide linuron.
