Unsymmetrically substituted imidazolium salts: synthesis, characterization and antimicrobial activity

Brazilian Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences, 2017
Unsymmetrically substituted imidazolium salts were synthesized and characterized using 1H-NMR and 13C-NMR. The antimicrobial activities of the salts were evaluated using the agar-well diffusion method against 14 bacteria and five yeasts.

Membrane selectivity and pore formation of SprA1 and SprA2 hemolytic peptides from Staphylococcus aureus type I toxin–antitoxin systems

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
When overexpressed in Staphylococcus aureus, the type I toxins SprA1 and SprA2 form membrane pores, with SprA1 creating stable pores and SprA2 forming transient ones. Both induce concomitant membrane depolarization, ATP release, and growth arrest, while only SprA1 causes membrane permeabilization due to its stable pore formation.

Topographical variations in the skin barrier and their role in disease pathogenesis

Journal of the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology, EarlyView.
Unlike the gut, the skin appears uniform at first glance. However, histological and molecular biological research has revealed significant regional variations in the composition and function of its main barrier elements. In this review, we describe the topographical differences of four barrier elements in healthy skin: microbiome, chemical, physical ...
