Crystal structure and biochemical analysis of the polyester‐degrading carboxylesterase SM0281 from the symbiotic legume‐associated rhizobacterium Sinorhizobium (Ensifer) meliloti

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
The microbial degradation of synthetic polyesters such as polyethylene terephthalate (PET) is mediated by diverse α/β‐hydrolases, many of which remain poorly characterized. In this study, we investigated the α/β‐hydrolase SM0281 from Sinorhizobium meliloti and found that it exhibits robust carboxylesterase and polyesterase activities toward PET, PCL ...

How Can We Personalize the Delivery of Onabotulinumtoxin‐A for Patients With Neurogenic Lower Urinary Tract Dysfunction?

Neurourology and Urodynamics, Volume 45, Issue 8, Page 1500-1506, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Background & Aims Neurogenic lower urinary tract dysfunction (NLUTD) can produce bothersome urinary symptoms, impact quality of life, and in some cases, lead to deterioration of upper urinary tract function. Intradetrusor injection of onabotulinumtoxin‐A (BoNT‐A) is approved for NLUTD in patients who have an inadequate response to or ...

Transcriptional analysis of temporal gene expression in germinating Clostridium difficile 630 endospores. [PDF]

, 2013
Clostridium difficile is the leading cause of hospital acquired diarrhoea in industrialised countries. Under conditions that are not favourable for growth, the pathogen produces metabolically dormant endospores via asymmetric cell division.

Functional characterisation of germinant receptors in Clostridium botulinum and Clostridium sporogenes presents novel insights into spore germination systems. [PDF]

PLoS Pathogens, 2014
Clostridium botulinum is a dangerous pathogen that forms the highly potent botulinum toxin, which when ingested causes a deadly neuroparalytic disease. The closely related Clostridium sporogenes is occasionally pathogenic, frequently associated with food

Targeted liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry profiling of arginine and histidine derivatives in chronic migraine: Discriminatory performance and changes after onabotulinumtoxinA therapy

Headache: The Journal of Head and Face Pain, Volume 66, Issue 9, Page 2041-2053, October 2026.
Plain Language Summary People with chronic migraine may have changes in amino‐acid metabolism, but it remains unclear which metabolic pathways are associated with the disease and early response to onabotulinumtoxinA treatment. We measured plasma amino‐acid levels in patients with chronic migraine and healthy controls and assessed changes after 1 month ...
