A Cationic Supramolecule With Potent Antifungal Activity, Single‐Species Selectivity, and Strong Synergy With Echinocandins

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
We introduce a new membrane‐active antifungal design, Gua‐SMACS‐16, that exhibits high potency and single‐species selectivity for C. tropicalis while sparing other close species in the Candida genus. Moreover, when combining with caspofungin, a clinical antifungal drug inhibiting 1,3‐β‐glucan synthase, they exhibit ultra‐strong synergy across a panel ...

Exploring the Roles of Tuna‐Associated Acinetobacter sp. YFT067: Implications for Host Health and Metabolism

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
This study firstly isolated a tuna‐derived gut probiotic Acinetobacter seifertii YFT067. Dietary administration of YFT067 played significant roles in promoting growth performance, SCFAs production, lipid absorption, and metabolism of the host, indicating YFT067 as a promising probiotic candidate for enhancing tuna aquaculture productivity through ...

Autoantibodies to Joint‐Related Peptides Are Associated with Onset of Rheumatoid Arthritis in Presymptomatic Seronegative Individuals

Arthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
Objective To identify autoantibodies in presymptomatic individuals that associate with the onset of rheumatoid arthritis (RA), and to distinguish early RA from osteoarthritis (OA), particularly in individuals lacking classic RA serological markers. Methods We analyzed serum and plasma from three cohorts: pre‐symptomatic individuals who later developed ...
