Characteristics of the Mare-Uterine-Culture-Based Bacterial Composition Using Practical Clinical Evaluation Methods

Pathogens
Uterine health is paramount to fertility in broodmares and for the success of a breeding project, and the Lusitano breed is no exception. This study aimed to characterize the mare uterine microbiota using practical clinical evaluation methods. Mares were

A Two‐Protein Chemoreceptor Complex Regulates Oxygen Thresholds in Bacterial Magneto‐Aerotaxis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Magnetotactic bacteria align with Earth's magnetic field, helping them migrate toward low‐oxygen environments. This study reveals how Magnetospirillum gryphiswaldense uses a specialized flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD)‐dependent chemoreceptor, composed of two interacting proteins, for precise navigation in oxygen gradients.

Historical microbiology, is it relevant in the 21st century?

FEMS Microbiology Letters, 2015
Facsimile microscopes have been used to examine the possibilities of van Leeuwenhoek microscopes with a range of magnifications, particularly to confirm that bacteria can be seen if the microscope is strong enough.

An Apple Susceptibility‐Related LRR Receptor‐Like Kinase MdRLKT21 Activates Plant Immunity by Hijacking a Trans‐Kingdom Fungal microRNA‐Like RNA

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The apple susceptibility‐related LRR‐RLK MdRLKT21 competitively binds to fungal sRNA effectors and subsequently activates defenses by salvaging the expression of MdRLKT1 and MdRLKT2 and thereby releasing the resistance protein MdRFP1. These findings provide new insights into the molecular mechanism by which plants counteract pathogen‐secreted sRNA ...

Microbiologic spectrum and susceptibility of isolates in delayed post-cataract surgery endophthalmitis

Clinical Ophthalmology, 2015
The objective of this study was to evaluate the microbiological spectrum and antimicrobial susceptibility of isolates in delayed post-cataract surgery endophthalmitis. A retrospective review of 33 consecutive patients with culture proven delayed post-cataract surgery endophthalmitis was done from January 2006 to March 2013.

An Engineered Soluble Single‐Chain TCR Engager for KRAS‐G12V Specific Tumor Immunotherapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study develops a dimeric T cell receptor engager protein specific for tumor KRAS‐G12V mutation. The engager proteins are capable of mediating the formation of synapse between T cell and tumor cell and demonstrate substantial tumor suppression efficacy.

Novel Antimicrobial Protein Fibroblast Growth Factor 8 Accelerates Skin Wound Healing via Directly Inhibiting Bacteria and Activating Glycolysis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Wound infections induce gcFGF8a expression, which subsequently executes direct antimicrobial activity to suppress local infection while simultaneously activating the FGFR4‐mediated ERK/AKT‐mTOR signaling cascade, thereby upregulating HIF1α and enhancing glycolysis. These coordinated actions synergistically promote tissue repair by eliminating pathogens

Variability in contact precautions to control the nosocomial spread of multi-drug resistant organisms in the endemic setting: a multinational cross-sectional survey

Antimicrobial Resistance and Infection Control, 2018
Background Definitions and practices regarding use of contact precautions and isolation to prevent the spread of gram-positive and gram-negative multidrug-resistant organisms (MDRO) are not uniform.
