Crystal Facet‐Polysaccharide Matching in CFS‐P Nanocrystals Drives Fungal Uptake, Vacuole Destruction, and Selective Antifungal Activity

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Facet‐engineered PVP‐capped CuFeSe2 nanocrystals exhibit potent, selective antifungal activity by strongly binding cell‐wall mannan, enabling vacuolar entry and organelle disruption. High‐index facets show superior mannan affinity, validated by theoretical calculations and experiments. CFS‐P induces vacuolar cavitation, mitochondrial abnormalities, and

The effect of carbonyl cyanide m-chlorophenyl-hydrazine on antibiotic susceptibility in MDR Enterobacteriaceae isolates in Babylon, Iraq

Medical Journal of Babylon
Background: One of the efflux pump inhibitors is carbonyl cyanide 3-chlorophenylhydrazone (CCCP) that has often been found to increase the susceptibility of a number of multi-drug resistant (MDR) MDR bacteria, isolated from human clinical specimens ...

6-gingerol enhances ciprofloxacin efficacy by inhibiting NorA efflux pump in Staphylococcus aureus

The Microbe
The drug efflux mechanism adopted by Staphylococcus aureus helps it in its survival under antibiotic pressure. The efflux pump NorA, a member of the MFS superfamily, effluxes out fluoroquinolones, biocides, quaternary ammonium compounds, and anti ...

Photodynamic Priming and Minocycline Overcome Chemoresistance by Reprogramming the Pancreatic Tumor Immune Microenvironment In Vivo

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Dual priming with minocycline and photodynamic priming reprograms the pancreatic tumor microenvironment to overcome chemoresistance. By suppressing DNA repair enzyme Tdp1, inducing photooxidative damage, and enhancing irinotecan delivery via light‐activated nanoencapsulation, this strategy remodels the tumor microenvironment and drives immune ...
