Multifaceted Suppression of Staphylococcal Virulence Phenotypes: In Vitro Study of a Cellular Status With Reduced Agr Activity and Impaired Biofilm

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 5, October 2026.
Finding of in vitro S. aureus status with reduced Agr activity and impaired biofilm. ABSTRACT Anti‐quorum sensing (QS) therapy has been focused on to reduce the virulence of pathogenic bacteria. However, there is a risk that suppression of the staphylococcal QS Agr system might promote biofilm formation.

DEET‐cyclodextrin inclusion complexes for mosquito and tick repellency: Extended repellency time and no zebrafish embryotoxicity

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 10, Page 9653-9665, October 2026.
Hydroxypropyl‐β‐cyclodextrin (HPβCD)–N,N‐diethyl‐meta‐toluamide (DEET) complex extended tick repellency to 168 h. Full protection against Aedes aegypti for 7 h with HPβCD‐DEET. HPβCD reduced DEET release and skin retention significantly. No embryotoxicity observed below 325 mg L−1 in zebrafish model.

A protein-based pneumococcal vaccine elicits broad immunity associated with multifunctional antibody responses in humans

The Journal of Clinical Investigation
Traditional polysaccharide vaccines are constrained by streptococcus pneumoniae diversity. We propose a protein-based pneumococcal vaccine (PBPV) — formulated with conserved surface proteins P3296, P5668, PRx1, and pneumolysin (Ply) — that could ...
