This study introduces a tree‐based machine learning approach to accelerate USP8 inhibitor discovery. The best‐performing model identified 100 high‐confidence repurposable compounds, half already approved or in clinical trials, and uncovered novel scaffolds not previously studied. These findings offer a solid foundation for rapid experimental follow‐up,

The DosR regulon of Mycobacterium avium and adaptation to hypoxia
Like other tuberculous and nontuberculous mycobacterial pathogens of human lung such as Mycobacterium tuberculosis and M. abscessus, M. avium is likely exposed to a variety of stressors during infection, including hypoxic conditions inside activated ...

Giardia's Epithelial Cell Interaction In Vitro: Mimicking Asymptomatic Infection?
The protozoan parasite Giardia duodenalis is responsible for more than 280 million cases of gastrointestinal complaints (“giardiasis”) every year, worldwide. Infections are acquired orally, mostly via uptake of cysts in contaminated drinking water. After

Establishment of a biosafe murine model of skeletal tuberculosis using Mycobacterium smegmatis
This study developed a biosafe, accessible, and versatile murine model of bone TB using Mycobacterium smegmatis, a fast‐growing, nonpathogenic mycobacterial species with high genomic homology to Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Three infection routes—subperiosteal calvarial injection, intratibial injection, and intracardiac (left ventricular) inoculation ...

A Multiepitope‐Based Lateral Flow Assay for Leprosy Antibodies
An innovative lateral flow assay for leprosy diagnosis is based on gold nanoparticles and synthetic Mycobacterium leprae epitopes conjugated to keyhole limpet hemocyanin protein to enhance antibody detection. This strategy provides a rapid, accurate, and low‐cost approach for resource‐limited settings, enabling the early detection of infection. Leprosy

Repurposing—a ray of hope in tackling extensively drug resistance in tuberculosis
Tuberculosis (TB) remains a serious concern more than two decades on from when the World Health Organization declared it a global health emergency. The alarming rise of antibiotic resistance in Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the etiological agent of TB, has

Objective Vacuoles E1 enzyme X‐linked autoinflammatory somatic syndrome (VEXAS) is a recently identified rare genetic disorder associated with somatic mutations in the UBA1 gene. VEXAS presents with a combination of inflammatory and hematologic manifestations, leading to increased morbidity and mortality.

Background and Aim The rise of drug‐resistant tuberculosis (TB) poses a need for new drugs and combinations. TBAJ‐587, a new diarylquinoline (DARQ), has shown promising efficacy in preclinical studies. This work aimed to describe the pharmacokinetics (PK) of TBAJ‐587 and its metabolites M2 and M3 after single ascending dosing in healthy volunteers and ...

While providing potentially life‐saving cardiorespiratory support for critically ill patients, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) may detrimentally affect pharmacokinetic (PK) performance and concurrent drug efficacy and safety. We describe a patient with Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia (PJP) in the context of acquired immunodeficiency ...
