Genomic Insights Into a Strong Biofilm‐Forming Enterococcus faecalis MTR_EFS01 Strain Isolated From a Shrimp in Bangladesh

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
This study characterizes a multidrug‐resistant and strong biofilm‐forming Enterococcus faecalis strain obtained from a shrimp sample in Bangladesh. ABSTRACT Enterococcus faecalis is known for its ability to form strong biofilms and its role as an opportunistic pathogen. In this study, we screened and characterized a multidrug‐resistant (MDR) and strong

Treatment of Libman-Sacks endocarditis by combination of warfarin and immunosuppressive therapy

Türk Kardiyoloji Derneği Arşivi, 2019
Antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) is a clinical disorder that creates an increased risk of arterial or venous thrombotic events or pregnancy-associated complications and includes the presence of autoantibodies against negatively charged phospholipids. This

Imaging the emergence of bacterial turbulence: phase diagram and transition kinetics [PDF]

arXiv, 2020
We experimentally study the emergence of collective bacterial swimming, a phenomenon often referred to as bacterial turbulence. A phase diagram of the flow of 3D E. coli suspensions spanned by bacterial concentration, the swimming speed of bacteria and the number fraction of active swimmers is systematically mapped, which shows quantitative agreement ...

Staphylococcus Aureus AgrA Modulators from South African Antimicrobial Plants.

Chemistry &Biodiversity, Accepted Article.
South African plants are an underutilized metabolites source for novel antimicrobials targeting key quorum sensing (QS) systems like the Staphylococcus aureus AgrA. AgrA modulating metabolites constitute a new approach to reducing resistance development.

Synthesis of a Set of Staphylococcus Aureus Capsular Polysaccharide Type 1 Oligosaccharides Carrying Taurine Esters

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
Staphylococcus aureus serotype 1 is a highly virulent pathogen and the capsular polysaccharide (CP1) has been shown to play an important role in virulence and be a target for opsonic antibodies. We here describe the synthesis of a set of CP1 oligosaccharides, varying in length and with different taurination patterns. Abstract Staphylococcus aureus is a

Aspergillus fumigatus endocarditis in a splenectomized patient with no risk factors

IDCases, 2020
Aspergillus endocarditis is a rare cause of culture-negative fungal endocarditis, after Candida endocarditis. Typical risk factors include intravenous drug use, immunosuppression, prior cardiac surgery or presence of prosthetic heart valves ...

Mechanically-driven spreading of bacterial populations [PDF]

Commun. Nonlinear Sci. Numer. Simulat. 35, 88 (2016), 2015
The effect of mechanical interactions between cells in the spreading of bacterial populations was investigated in one-dimensional space. A continuum-mechanics approach, comprising cell migration, proliferation, and exclusion processes, was employed to elucidate the dynamics.

Synthetic Biology‐Based Engineering Living Therapeutics for Antimicrobial Application

Exploration, EarlyView.
This perspective highlights synthetic biology‐driven antibacterial strategies, focusing on three innovative approaches: engineered bacteriophages for precision bacterial targeting, reprogrammed microbes that detect quorum‐sensing signals or metabolites to release antimicrobials, and engineering mammalian cells that recognize pathogen‐associated ...
