Emergence of Staphylococcus aureus Resistance to Antimicrobial Peptides Nisin, NZ2114 and Bacitracin Involves Multiple Phenotypic Changes

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
The AMP‐induced mutant Staphylococcus aureus strain nzR showed increased resistance, five gene mutations, and decreased surface anion levels. AMPs affect the NDH‐2 protein encoded by ndh gene inhibiting the growth of S. aureus. The deletion of the ndh gene promotes the development of AMPs resistance.

Thermal‐Infrared Measurements of the North‐East Tower at Ardrossan Castle

Archaeological Prospection, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Thermal‐infrared imaging of buildings is used to investigate a range of phenomena including the accumulation of moisture. In general, the presence of moisture poses a direct danger to historic structures and must be characterized prior to any intervention.

Expert Perspective: How, When, and Why to Potentially Stop Antiresorptive Drugs in Osteoporosis

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Osteoporosis is a chronic disease, and antiresorptive treatments are often continued for many years. Despite their established efficacy in reducing fracture risk, the most commonly used antiresorptive treatments, bisphosphonates and denosumab, have short‐ and long‐term risks that, coupled with their benefits and other unique characteristics, influence ...

Comparison of Coculture Models of Eukaryotic Cells With Pathogenic and/or Commensal Bacteria for Tissue Engineering

Biotechnology and Applied Biochemistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Appropriate in vitro systems are needed to evaluate effective strategies to prevent implant‐associated infections, which remain a significant complication in today's medicine. Conventional in vitro models involving monocultures cannot fully reflect the tissue environment in vivo.

Design and Synthesis of Triazole‐Based p‐tert‐Butylcalix[4]Arene Conjugates and Evaluation of Their Antimicrobial, Antibiofilm, and Anti‐Quorum‐Sensing Activities

Biotechnology and Applied Biochemistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Macrocyclic calix[n]arenes have many applications, with diverse structures that can easily be functionalized either on upper or lower rims, mostly to impart solubility and improve biological activities. In this study, triazole‐based p‐tert‐butylcalix[4]arene conjugates (AT10a and AT10b) and their p‐tert‐butylphenol analogs (AT10b and AT11b ...
