From energy provision to protein synthesis: Tunnelling nanotubes as mediators of intercellular metabolic cooperation in cancer

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The cytoskeleton‐mediated transport of mitochondria via tunnelling nanotubes restores respiration, increases ATP production, rescues cells from apoptosis, activates the AKT/mTOR signalling pathway, promotes cell migration and invasiveness, contributes to cancer progression and treatment resistance.

Evolved bacterial resistance against fluoropyrimidines can lower chemotherapy impact in the Caenorhabditis elegans host

open access: yeseLife, 2020
Metabolism of host-targeted drugs by the microbiome can substantially impact host treatment success. However, since many host-targeted drugs inadvertently hamper microbiome growth, repeated drug administration can lead to microbiome evolutionary ...

Interplay in the selection of fluoroquinolone resistance and bacterial fitness. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2009
Fluoroquinolones are antibacterial drugs that inhibit DNA Gyrase and Topoisomerase IV. These essential enzymes facilitate chromosome replication and RNA transcription by regulating chromosome supercoiling.

CAR T‐Cell Therapy in Neurology: A Scoping Review of Neuro‐Oncology, Autoimmune Diseases & Neurotoxicity

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T‐cell therapy has been investigated in neurological diseases, encompassing both central nervous system malignancies and autoimmune disorders, thereby extending its application beyond hematological cancers.

Clinical Implications of Varying Degrees of Vancomycin Susceptilibity in Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus Bacteremia

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2003
We conducted a retrospective study of the clinical aspects of bacteremia caused by methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) with heterogeneously reduced susceptibility to vancomycin.

Defence against bacterial drug resistance. [PDF]

open access: yesBMJ, 1976
Everyone knows that acquired microbic resistance is the Achilles heel of chemotherapy. All living things can acquire some resistance to noxious agents-man to morphine, for instance. Bacteria are no exception: they can become more resistant in some degree even to ordinary germicides.

Role of xenobiotic transporters in bacterial drug resistance and virulence [PDF]

open access: yesIUBMB Life, 2008
AbstractSince the discovery of antibiotic therapeutics, the battles between humans and infectious diseases have never been stopped. Humans always face the appearance of a new bacterial drug‐resistant strain followed by new antibiotic development. However, as the genome sequences of infectious bacteria have been gradually determined, a completely new ...

Natural Bone‐Derived Ceramic Scaffolds Functionalized with Chitosan‐Gold, Chitosan‐Magnesium, and Chitosan‐Zinc for Enhanced Antibacterial Activity

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study reports the development of antibacterial ceramic scaffolds derived from natural bovine bone. The bones were processed through sequential boiling and hydrogen peroxide treatment to remove organic matter, producing porous, mineral‐rich scaffolds.

History of antibiotic adaptation influences microbial evolutionary dynamics during subsequent treatment.

open access: yesPLoS Biology, 2017
Antibiotic regimens often include the sequential changing of drugs to limit the development and evolution of resistance of bacterial pathogens. It remains unclear how history of adaptation to one antibiotic can influence the resistance profiles when ...
