Appropriateness of antibiotic therapy in sepsis patients in the intensive care unit: A single-center observational study [PDF]
Journal of Pharmacy & Pharmacognosy ResearchContext: Sepsis remains a major cause of mortality in intensive care units, and antimicrobial selection is complicated by local resistance patterns.

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

Multiple Drug Resistance and ESBL Production in Bacterial Urine Culture Isolates
American Journal of BioScience, 2014 Transmission of bacterial strains between patients is a serious problem in hospitals and with the increasing rate of antibiotic resistance the problem has farther escalated. Enterobacteriaceae produced ESBLs, especially E-coli, are increasingly important nosocomial pathogens.

Journal of Medicinal Botany, 2020 Combinations of various antimicrobial agents have been introduced as an extra successful strategy to combat multiple drug resistant infections. This study was undertaken to evaluate the effects of Nigella sativa seeds on several multi-drug resistant diarrheic bacterial agents.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.We present robust protocols for the preparation of supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) incorporating either Salmonella smooth LPS or outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). We use a combination of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D) and fluorescence microscopy to both characterize the SLBs of various compositions and to probe their interactions ...

_M. tuberculosis_ interactome analysis unravels potential pathways to drug resistance [PDF]
, 2008 Drug resistance is a major problem for combating tuberculosis. Lack of understanding of how resistance emerges in bacteria upon drug treatment limits our ability to counter resistance.

Hsp90 governs dispersion and drug resistance of fungal biofilms [PDF]
, 2011 Fungal biofilms are a major cause of human mortality and are recalcitrant to most treatments due to intrinsic drug resistance. These complex communities of multiple cell types form on indwelling medical devices and their eradication often requires ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Proteostasis and the gut microbiota play a key role in shaping host physiology. Microbiota‐derived metabolites, vitamins, and RNA modulate host proteostasis. Findings from model systems, including C. elegans, indicate microbes can either stabilize or disrupt host proteostasis.
