Peptide‐based ligand antagonists block a Vibrio cholerae adhesin
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.The structure of a peptide‐binding domain of the Vibrio cholerae adhesin FrhA was solved by X‐ray crystallography, revealing how the inhibitory peptide AGYTD binds tightly at its Ca2+‐coordinated pocket. Structure‐guided design incorporating D‐amino acids enhanced binding affinity, providing a foundation for developing anti‐adhesion therapeutics ...

Mechanisms of parasite‐mediated disruption of brain vessels
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Parasites can affect the blood vessels of the brain, often causing serious neurological problems. This review explains how different parasites interact with and disrupt these vessels, what this means for brain health, and why these processes matter. Understanding these mechanisms may help us develop better ways to prevent or treat brain infections in ...

Laparoscopy in Management of Children with Small Bowel Obstruction
Galician Medical Journal, 2016 Small bowel obstruction caused by adhesions is one of the most common causes of hospital admission among children. Until recently, the presence of symptoms of small bowel obstruction was the contraindication for laparoscopy; however, rapid development of

Microbiota dysbiosis and its pathophysiological significance in bowel obstruction
Scientific Reports, 2018 Bowel obstruction (OB) causes local and systemic dysfunctions. Here we investigated whether obstruction leads to alterations in microbiota community composition and total abundance, and if so whether these changes contribute to dysfunctions in OB ...

Time after time – circadian clocks through the lens of oscillator theory
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Oscillator theory bridges physics and circadian biology. Damped oscillators require external drivers, while limit cycles emerge from delayed feedback and nonlinearities. Coupling enables tissue‐level coherence, and entrainment aligns internal clocks with environmental cues.

Small bowel obstruction secondary to foam earplug ingestion
Journal of Pediatric Surgery Case Reports, 2020 We describe a case of a 12 month old male who presented with small bowel obstruction (SBO) secondary to ingestion of a foam ear plug. Both X-ray and ultrasound failed to pick up the cause of obstruction.
