Dynamic ploidy changes drive fluconazole resistance in human cryptococcal meningitis. [PDF]

, 2018
BACKGROUND: Cryptococcal meningitis (CM) causes an estimated 180,000 deaths annually, predominantly in sub-Saharan Africa, where most patients receive fluconazole (FLC) monotherapy. While relapse after FLC monotherapy with resistant strains is frequently

Immunomodulatory Role of Capsular Polysaccharides Constituents of Cryptococcus neoformans

Frontiers in Medicine, 2019
Cryptococcosis is a systemic fungal infection caused by Cryptococcus neoformans. In immunocompetent patients, cryptococcal infection is often confined to the lungs. In immunocompromised individuals, C.

Promising Prodiginins Biological Activities

Chemistry &Biodiversity, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Prodiginins are a large family of at least 34 pyrrolic compounds, including the well‐studied red pigment prodigiosin. Prodiginins are produced by several microorganisms displaying broad biological activities, including antimicrobial, antiviral, antiparasitic, antiproliferative, and immunosuppressive activities.

Composition, Chemical Variability, and Anti‐inflammatory Activity of the Berry Essential Oil of Juniperus phoenicea L. var. Turbinata From Algeria

Chemistry &Biodiversity, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The chemical composition of 66 oil samples isolated from the berries of individual trees of Juniperus phoenicea var. turbinata, collected in six locations from Algeria, was investigated by gas chromatography with flame ionization detection, gas chromatography‐mass spectrometry, and 13C‐nuclear magnetic resonance.

Multiomics Reveal Associations Between CpG Methylation, Histone Modifications and Transcription in a Species That has Lost DNMT3, the Colorado Potato Beetle

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution, EarlyView.
Despite lacking DNMT3, EM‐seq revealed CpG methylation in the Colorado potato beetle. CUT&Tag analysis showed an association of H3K36me3 and H3K27ac with transcription, with H3K36me3 mirroring CpG methylation, demonstrating epigenetic flexibility.
