Nonthermal plasma approaches for combating implant‐associated infections: A compendious review

open access: yesVIEW, EarlyView.
Implant‐associated infections pose serious clinical challenges. Non‐thermal plasma (NTP) modifications overcome this bottleneck in distinct ways relative to traditional sterilization methods. Gas‐phase plasmas generate highly energetic species, UV radiation and reactive oxygen/nitrogen species (RONS), which alter the implant surface properties.

α‐1,3‐Glucan Is Required for Cell Wall Integrity and Full Virulence of Colletotrichum graminicola, but Not for Evasion of PAMP‐Triggered Immunity

open access: yesMolecular Microbiology, EarlyView.
Abbreviated Summary The role of the major fungal cell wall polymer α‐1,3‐glucan in plant infection is poorly understood. Deletion mutants of the maize anthracnose fungus Colletotrichum graminicola lacking all three α‐1,3‐glucan synthase genes differentiated severely distorted biotrophic hyphae in planta, and virulence was strongly reduced.

Invasive Fungal Infections in Heart Transplants: A 10‐Year, Single Centre Retrospective Cohort Study From Subtropical Australia

open access: yesTransplant Infectious Disease, EarlyView.
In this 10‐year retrospective cohort study of heart transplant recipients in subtropical Australia, we characterize the incidence and microbiological profile of invasive fungal infections, highlighting the underappreciated burden of late‐onset and non‐Aspergillus mold infections and the potential underdiagnosis of polymicrobial disease.
