Image_1_Thousands of Novel Endolysins Discovered in Uncultured Phage Genomes.PDF

, 2018
Bacteriophages express endolysins toward the end of their replication cycle to degrade the microbial cell wall from within, allowing viral progeny to be released. Endolysins can also degrade the prokaryotic cell wall from the outside, thus have potential

Harnessing bacterial extracellular vesicles for bone and cartilage organoids

BMEMat, EarlyView.
This review presents bacterial extracellular vesicles (BEVs) as programmable bioactive regulators for bone and cartilage organoids by delivering functional cargos that modulate skeletal remodeling. It highlights key engineering strategies and future directions to advance next‐generation organoid models for bone aging related diseases.

Oral Bacterial Extracellular Vesicles as Systemic Messengers: A Mouth–Gut–Systemic Axis Paradigm

Gut Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Oral microbiome dysbiosis not only associated with localized periodontal disease but also with multiple systemic diseases, including cardiovascular disease, diabetes mellitus, Alzheimer's disease, rheumatoid arthritis, and cancer. However, the efficiency with which intact viable bacteria cross biological barriers to reach distant organs is ...

Use of a Bacteriophage Lysin to Control Axillary Malodor

JEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Axillary malodor is primarily caused by bacteria, particularly Staphylococcus hominis, which metabolize apocrine secretions into volatile compounds. Traditional deodorants contain antiseptics that can disrupt the skin microbiome and cause irritation. Alternative methods of odor control are being sought but so far without success. We

Endolysin Regulation in Phage Mu Lysis

mBio, 2022
Host cell lysis is the terminal event of the bacteriophage infection cycle. In Gram-negative hosts, lysis requires proteins that disrupt each of the three cell envelope components, only one of which has been identified in Mu: the endolysin gp22.

Advancing Therapies for Mycobacterial Diseases: From Small Molecules to Host‐Directed Strategies

Medicinal Research Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The global burden of multidrug‐resistant tuberculosis (MDR‐TB) and the rising incidence of nontuberculous mycobacterial (NTM) infections highlight the urgent need for innovative therapeutic strategies. Current treatments are prolonged, toxic, and increasingly compromised by resistance and limited diagnostic capacity.

Discovery of potent endolysins against Pseudomonas aeruginosa and other gram-negative ESKAPE pathogens by an agar-based screening method

Scientific Reports
Antibiotic resistance is a growing concern, and there is an urgent need for alternative treatments. A proposed solution includes endolysins. Naturally occurring endolysins have limited activity against Gram-negative bacteria due to the presence of an ...
