Abstract Plant pathogenic bacteria cause massive losses in agriculture and damage to natural plant habitats. Bacterial pathogens not only reduce crop production, but they also reduce crop quality by releasing toxins into the environment. Pathogenic bacteria that invade plant tissues must overcome the plant's defense mechanisms. Plants possess an innate

Streamlining antibiotic use in community acquired pneumonia: A quality improvement initiative
Visual Abstract Abstract Background Evidence suggests a 3‐day total duration and early transition to oral therapy is safe in hospitalized patients with community acquired pneumonia (CAP)—though such care is not standard in the United States. To implement these evidence‐based practices, a multidisciplinary group led by a hospitalist and antimicrobial ...

Legionella colonisation in hot water systems in care homes from two Danish municipalities
Legionnaires' disease is a serious health risk among the elderly. Water systems in care homes are therefore of particular interest. We investigated the levels of culturable Legionella in the hot water systems in care homes in two Danish municipalities ...

A Suspected Case of Allergic Bronchopulmonary Mycosis Associated With Exophiala dermatitidis
An 83‐year‐old man without asthma developed allergic bronchopulmonary mycosis (ABPM) associated with Exophiala dermatitidis. This case suggests that E. dermatitidis may be involved in ABPM. ABSTRACT Exophiala dermatitidis is a black fungus that can colonize the airways, but allergic bronchopulmonary mycosis (ABPM) associated with E.

Legionella, a waterborne pathogen, is the main cause of Legionnaires’ disease. Therefore, timely and accurate detection and differentiation of Legionella pneumophila and non-Legionella pneumophila species is crucial. In this study, we develop an easy and

Bacterial pathogens colonise woody hosts by integrating metabolic adaptation, effector‐mediated immune suppression, cell wall remodelling and EPS‐ and toxin‐supported persistence. ABSTRACT Bacterial pathogens of woody plants represent a pervasive yet underexplored threat to global agriculture and forestry, causing devastating diseases in fruit trees ...

Synthetic Ligands of Myeloid C‐Type Lectin Receptors
Binding of ligands to C‐type lectin receptors (CLRs) on myeloid cells can lead to an array of cellular responses. Exploitation of these receptors for therapeutic purposes requires high‐affinity ligands. This review surveys the diversity of synthetic ligands of myeloid CLRs in the context of binding, signaling, and downstream effects, as well as ...
