Synthetic Mono-Rhamnolipids Display Direct Antifungal Effects and Trigger an Innate Immune Response in Tomato against Botrytis Cinerea

open access: yesMolecules, 2020
Natural rhamnolipids are potential biocontrol agents for plant protection against bacterial and fungal diseases. In this work, we synthetized new synthetic mono-rhamnolipids (smRLs) consisting in a rhamnose connected to a simple acyl chain and differing ...

Conserved binding mode but diverse interfaces of MreC‐PBP2 interactions

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The crystal structure of abMreC reveals a conserved two β‐barrel architecture and provides structural insights into its role within the bacterial elongasome. The abMreC–abPBP2 complex model identifies the molecular basis of MreC‐mediated PBP2 recognition, contributing to the regulation of peptidoglycan synthesis.

Mechanisms linking glucotoxicity to the development of insulin resistance: a role for the endoplasmic reticulum stress [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Aims/hypothesis: Glucosamine, generated during hyperglycaemia, causes insulin resistance in different cells. Here we sought to evaluate the possible role of ER stress in the induction of insulin-resistance by glucosamine in skeletal muscle cells. Methods:

Regrowth resistance: low-level platinum resistance mediated by rapid recovery from platinum-induced cell-cycle arrest [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The H69CIS200 and H69OX400 cell lines are novel models of low-level platinum drug resistance developed from H69 human small cell lung cancer cells with eight 4-day treatments of 200 ng/ml cisplatin or 400 ng/ml oxaliplatin respectively. A recovery period

Microbiome‐blood–brain barrier interactions in aging — mechanisms and therapeutic potential

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Aging reshapes the gut microbiome (↓SCFA‐producing commensals; ↑pro‐inflammatory outputs), shifting circulating metabolites (↓SCFAs; ↑LPS, ↑TMAO, ↑PAA) that act at the BBB to increase nonspecific transcytosis, alter transport, and promote astrocyte reactivity, heightening brain vulnerability.

Global burden of bacterial antimicrobial resistance 1990-2021: a systematic analysis with forecasts to 2050 [PDF]

open access: yes
Background: Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) poses an important global health challenge in the 21st century. A previous study has quantified the global and regional burden of AMR for 2019, followed with additional publications that provided more detailed ...

Structure‐forward targeting of claudins with synthetic binders

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Claudins form the paracellular barriers between epithelial and endothelial tissues at tight junctions and are targets for molecular binders with the goal of modulating barrier permeability. Claudin‐binding molecules are relevant in drug delivery or in altering claudin interactions with disease‐causing proteins.

Plant phenotyping and root‐associated metabolomics reveal insights into pathogen protection by diverse arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi

open access: yesPlants, People, Planet
Societal Impact Statement Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi support plant development by enhancing growth and resistance to pathogens through mycorrhiza‐induced resistance (MIR).

Increasing Light Intensity Enhances Bacillus amyloliquefaciens PMB05-Mediated Plant Immunity and Improves Biocontrol of Bacterial Wilt

open access: yesAgriculture
Bacterial wilt is a highly destructive disease affecting a wide range of crops, with no effective chemical control methods currently available. Consequently, the development of microbial strategies for disease management has become increasingly important.

Erwinia carotovora subsp. carotovora and Erwinia-Derived Elicitors HrpN and PehA Trigger Distinct but Interacting Defense Responses and Cell Death in Arabidopsis

open access: yesMolecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2003
We have used an hrp-positive strain of the soft rot pathogen Erwinia carotovora subsp. carotovora to elucidate plant responses to this bacterial necrotroph.
