Novel 1,3-thiazolidin-4-one derivatives as promising anti-Candida agents endowed with anti-oxidant and chelating properties [PDF]
Pursuing our recent outcomes regarding the antifungal activity of N-substituted 1,3-thiazolidin-4-ones, we synthesized thirty-six new derivatives introducing aliphatic, cycloaliphatic and heteroaromatic moieties at N1-hydrazine connected with C2 position

Cell wall target fragment discovery using a low‐cost, minimal fragment library
LoCoFrag100 is a fragment library made up of 100 different compounds. Similarity between the fragments is minimized and 10 different fragments are mixed into a single cocktail, which is soaked to protein crystals. These crystals are analysed by X‐ray crystallography, revealing the binding modes of the bound fragment ligands.

The presented protocol outlines a comprehensive assessment of the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) values for bacterial cell cultures. These experiments are vital for screening bacterial susceptibility to antibiotics and substances with potential antibacterial properties.

Bone metastasis in prostate cancer (PCa) patients is a clinical hurdle due to the poor understanding of the supportive bone microenvironment. Here, we identify stearoyl‐CoA desaturase (SCD) as a tumor‐promoting enzyme and potential therapeutic target in bone metastatic PCa.

Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus and Vancomycin: Minimum Inhibitory Concentration Matters [PDF]
These investigators found that elevated vancomycin MICs were associated with increased mortality in patients with MRSA infections, a result mostly driven by outcomes of bloodstream infections (BSIs). In contrast, excess mortality in association with elevated MICs was not seen in non-BSI MRSA infections.
