Retrospective Evaluation of Central Venous Catheter Use for Parenteral Nutrition in Pediatric Intestinal Failure: Infections and Taurolidine Role

Antibiotics
Objective: This study aimed to describe the main microorganisms causing catheter-related bloodstream infections (CRBSIs) and to evaluate the effectiveness of taurolidine catheter lock therapy in children with intestinal failure (IF) receiving parenteral ...

From mice to humans—divergent strategies for intestinal homeostasis and regeneration

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Recent advances such as organoid genome editing, xenotransplantation, imaging, and whole‐genome sequencing have enabled direct studies of human intestinal stem cells (ISCs). These studies reveal species‐specific features, including slower ISC proliferation, distinct injury responses, slower somatic mutation accumulation in humans, and an inverse ...

Pathogenic bacteria in cheese, raw and pasteurised milk

Veterinary Medicine and Science, 2021
Background Foodborne diseases, especially those transmitted by milk and its products, are worldwide problem. Milk is not only a complete food but also a unique medium for activating various bacteria such as Listeria monocytogenes, Staphylococcus aureus ...

Design and analysis strategies for robust microbiome ageing research

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The gut microbiome changes with age and associates with age‐related morbidity and mortality, establishing it as a potential biomarker and intervention target for ageing. Realising this potential requires methodological rigour, yet distinguishing biological signals from methodological artefacts remains challenging across cohorts. This review provides an

Isolation, identification and conservation of bacteria of biotechnological interest

One Health & Risk Management, 2023
Introduction. The evaluation of microbial biodiversity is an important step in the process of its conservation, and the identification of bacterial strains of biotechnological interest allows their application as support for the development of ...

Reconstructing enzyme evolution by protein engineering

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Natural enzyme evolution can be retraced by protein engineering methods such as directed evolution, rational design, and ancestral sequence reconstruction. These approaches reveal how enzymes emerged from ligand‐binding scaffolds, developed varying substrate preferences, formed oligomeric complexes, adapted to environmental changes, and evolved novel ...

A dual-phase strategy to integrate the VITEK MS RUO database into routine clinical practice: from validation of analytical performance to implementation of an automated workflow

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology
BackgroundMatrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) is pivotal in clinical microbiology. The VITEK MS Research Use Only (RUO) database offers broader species coverage, yet its clinical adoption is ...

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...

Identification of the Antagonistic Fungus Diaporthe phoenicicola Against Rhododendron Brown Spot Disease and Its Disease Control and Plant Growth-Promoting Efficacy

Journal of Fungi
To explore superior biocontrol resources for Rhododendron brown spot disease, five antagonistic fungal strains exhibiting significant inhibitory activity against the pathogen responsible for RBS were isolated from healthy Rhododendron hybridum Ker Gawl ...
