Antimicrobial Multi‐Assay Evaluation of (Al‐Doped ZnO)‐Ag and TiO2‐Ag Nanocoatings: Impact of Direct and Indirect Mechanisms

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
This work explores the antimicrobial action of AZO‐Ag and TiO2‐Ag nanocoatings on plastic, demonstrating good efficacy against highly‐critical antibiotic‐resistant bacteria, yeast, and virus. A multi‐assay approach is here exploited to inspect the contribution of direct and indirect antimicrobial mechanisms, and potential human toxicity is also ...

Structural, Mechanical, and Genetic Insights into Heat‐Pressed Fomes Fomentarius Mycelium from Solid‐State and Liquid Cultivations

Advanced Sustainable Systems, EarlyView.
Fungal mycelium‐based materials are an upcoming class of sustainable materials. Heat ‐pressing is a promising post‐processing technique to produce fungal mycelium‐based particle boards or leather substitutes. However, little is known about the mechanism involved.

Leucine Aminopeptidase in Candida Albicans

Journal of Investigative Dermatology, 1962
Since the late 19th century, there have been numerous publications on proteolytic enzymes in dermatophytes (for literature see 1-5). Bodin (1907), Mallinckrodt-Haupt (1928), and Tate (1929) stated that active proteolytic enzymes (e.g. trypsin, casease, renin, gelatinase (1, 2), or enzymes with activity very similar to trypsin (3)) are present in the ...

Candida albicansclades [PDF]

FEMS Immunology & Medical Microbiology, 2003
DNA fingerprinting with the complex probe Ca3 has revealed the following five Candida albicans clades: group I, group II, group III, group SA and group E. These groups exhibit geographical specificity. Group SA is relatively specific (i.e., highly enriched) to South Africa, group E is relatively specific to Europe, and group II is absent in the ...

Homeostasis of Gut Microbiota Protects against Susceptibility to Fungal Pneumonia

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Fungal pneumonia induces inflammation, shown by heightened IL‐6, IL‐1β, TNF‐α levels and a growth in Staphylococcus in the alveolar flora. The gut microbiota, acting through the gut‐lung axis via blood, impacts fungal pneumonia susceptibility by altering lung metabolism and inflammatory responses.

Calhm6 Governs Macrophage Polarization Through Chp1‐Camk4‐Creb1 Axis and Ectosomal Delivery in Inflammatory Responses

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Calhm6 drives M2 macrophage polarization via the Chp1‐Camk4‐Creb1 axis, suppressing inflammation through calcium‐dependent ectosomal delivery. Calhm6 deficiency enhances M1 responses, boosting bactericidal activity but exacerbating tissue damage. LPS/IFNγ upregulate Calhm6 via Irf1, while IL‐4/Stat6 inhibits it, balancing immune outcomes.
