Croatian Journal of Food Science and Technology, 2021 Probiotics are live bacteria that can be found in fermented local foods and confer health benefits on the host when administered in adequate amounts. However, there is little awareness of local fermented, lactose-free foods as good and cheap sources of ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC) infects the human intestinal epithelium, resulting in severe illness and diarrhoea. In this study, we compared the infection of cancer‐derived cell lines with human organoid‐derived models of the small intestine. We observed a delayed in attachment, inflammation and cell death on primary cells, indicating that host ...

Methods currently applied to study the prevalence of Clostridioides difficile in foods
AIMS Agriculture and Food, 2020 Clostridioides difficile is responsible for most cases of antibiotic- and hospital-associated diarrhoea. Several studies have demonstrated the presence of C.

Plasmodium falciparum gametogenesis essential protein 1 (GEP1) is a transmission‐blocking target
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.This study shows Plasmodium falciparum GEP1 is vital for activating sexual stages of malarial parasites even independently of a mosquito factor. Knockout parasites completely fail gamete formation even when a phosphodiesterase inhibitor is added. Two single‐nucleotide polymorphisms (V241L and S263P) are found in 12%–20% of field samples.

Enumeration, isolation, and identification of bifidobacteria from dairy products
Acta Agriculturae Slovenica, 2004 Six dairy products were tested. Bifidobacteria were enumerated and isolated using TPY agar modified by the addition of mupirocin (100 mg l–1). Isolates were identified to the genus level by the detection of fructose-6-phosphate phosphoketolase (F6PPK ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Angiotensin II (AngII), a neuropeptide, interacts with amyloid‐β (Aβ), a key player in Alzheimer's disease. This study reveals that AngII reduces Aβ aggregation and membrane disruption in vitro. Biophysical assays and molecular modeling suggest AngII binds disordered Aβ forms, potentially modulating early amyloidogenic events and contributing to ...

Ou comme ça, machin et autres marqueurs d’indétermination dans les listes
Discours, 2017 This article deals with two extension particles (or “general extenders”) found in the OFROM corpus (French spoken in Switzerland). On the one hand, we study the sequence ou comme ça (“or like that”), whose high frequency seems to be characteristic of the

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Atovaquone is an antimalarial requiring potentiation for sufficient efficacy. We pursued strategies to enhance its activity, showing that 4‐nitrobenzoate inhibits 4‐hydroxybenzoate polyprenyltransferase, decreasing ubiquinone biosynthesis. Since atovaquone competes with ubiquinol in mitochondria, 4‐nitrobenzoate facilitates its action, potentiating ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Cells must clear mislocalized or faulty proteins from membranes to survive. The AAA+ ATPase Msp1 performs this task, but dissecting how its six subunits work together is challenging. We engineered linked dimers with varied numbers of functional subunits to reveal how Msp1 subunits cooperate and use energy to extract proteins from the lipid bilayer ...
