Targeted killing of myofibroblasts by biosurfactant di-rhamnolipid suggests a therapy against scar formation [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2016 AbstractPathological myofibroblasts are often involved in skin scarring via generating contractile force and over-expressing collagen fibers, but no compound has been found to inhibit the myofibroblasts without showing severe toxicity to surrounding physiological cells.

Microbial production of rhamnolipids from isolate pseudomonas sp. —A mono- rhamnolipid producer [PDF]
, 2017 Rhamnolipids are a class of glycolipid biosurfactants containing mono- or di-rhamnose as the sugar moiety linked to β-hydroxylated fatty acid chain(s). Rhamnolipids are used in many consumer products such as cosmetics, food and pesticides, due to their ...

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2017 Cyclic-di-GMP (c-di-GMP) is an intracellular secondary messenger which controls the biofilm life cycle in many bacterial species. High intracellular c-di-GMP content enhances biofilm formation via the reduction of motility and production of biofilm ...
