Deciphering the relative importance of genetic elements in hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae to guide countermeasure developmentResearch in context

EBioMedicine
Summary: Background: Quantitating the contribution of phenotype-responsible elements in hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae is needed. Methods: Isogenic mutants of four hypervirulent clinical isolates that produced K1 (ST23), K2 (ST86), K20 (ST1544), or

An ATP‐Mediated Antibiotic β‐Peptide Nanofiber That Kills Multidrug‐Resistant Bacteria via a Multistage Mechanism

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The 3K‐AP system forms infinite supramolecular fibrils that undergo controlled degradation into shorter fragments upon enzymatic hydrolysis. Multitechnique imaging reveals a stepwise bacteriolytic mechanism involving bacterial entrapment, disassembly into lethal constructs, and associated extracellular vesicle release, highlighting the dynamic ...

Multidrug-resistant tuberculosis in children and response to therapy

Medical Journal of Dr. D.Y. Patil University, 2015
There is very little information available on drug-resistant (DR) tuberculosis (TB) in children in Indian scenario and especially their response to therapy. We present a series of children who were suffering from multidrug-resistant-TB and their response

POU2F1 Promotes Chemoresistance in Colorectal Cancer Cells via Attenuates the MDR2 Degradation Mediated by PPP1R11 Lactylation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Schematic diagram of our study showing that highly expressed POU2F1 in colorectal cancer (CRC) can directly accelerate the cytosolic lactate export to decrease PPP1R11 lactylation at K59, thereby attenuating the E3 ligase enzyme activity and protein stability of PPP1R11, which inhibits the ubiquitination of MDR2 at K413 and K538 but increases the ...

Diagnostic value of the combined test of leukocytes in urine and TB-DOT and T-SPOT.TB in blood for urinary tuberculosis

Frontiers in Microbiology
BackgroundThis study aims to evaluate the clinical utility of routine urinary tests and renal function assessments, as well as the Tuberculosis antibody test (TB-DOT) and T-cell spot tests for TB infection (T-SPOT.TB), either individually or in ...

A Chirality‐Converted Bacteriolytic Dodecapeptide Regulates Vibrio‐Induced Polymicrobial Infection and Ameliorates Invasion‐Associated Gut Microbiota Disequilibrium

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Multidrug‐resistant Vibrio infections are rising rapidly and threaten coastal populations worldwide. This study introduces D‐zp37, a chirality‐engineered antimicrobial peptide with exceptional potency against resistant Vibrio species. D‐zp37 kills planktonic cells, blocks mixed‐species biofilms, disrupts essential bacterial stress responses, and shows ...

Engineering Microbial Particles for Next‐Generation Biomedical Platforms

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Microbe‐derived particles (MDPs), which include extracellular vesicles, outer membrane vesicles, inclusion bodies, polysaccharide particles, and virus‐like particles, represent a rapidly expanding category of bioinspired nanomaterials. With their natural origin, intrinsic biocompatibility, and highly programmable functionality, MDPs serve as a ...

Aggregation‐State Dynamics Drive Double Cooperativity Between Antimicrobial Peptides LL‐37 and HNP1

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
The double cooperative effect between LL‐37 and HNP1 arises from dynamic changes in their aggregation state. These LL‐37/HNP1 assemblies reorganize in a target‐dependent manner, suppressing activity toward mammalian cells while enabling potent antibacterial action.
