Lip necrosis caused by methicillin‐resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA)

open access: yesJEADV Clinical Practice, Volume 3, Issue 4, Page 1253-1257, September 2024.
Abstract Labial necrosis is a rare condition with diverse causes, posing challenges for diagnosis and treatment. Methicillin‐resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) strains, particularly those positive for Panton‐Valentine leukocidin (PVL), further complicate management due to antibiotic resistance and heightened virulence.

Genetically encoded libraries and spider venoms as emerging sources for crop protective peptides

open access: yesJournal of Peptide Science, Volume 30, Issue 9, September 2024.
This review examines the advantages and disadvantages of two strategies employing peptides for protecting crops from microbial and arthropod pathogens and pests. One approach utilizes genetically encoded peptide libraries (GEPLs) for de novo identification of novel antimicrobial peptides, while the other strategy relies on natural resources such as ...

Discovery of broadly‐neutralizing antibodies against brown recluse spider and Gadim scorpion sphingomyelinases using consensus toxins as antigens

open access: yesProtein Science, Volume 33, Issue 3, March 2024.
Abstract Broadly‐neutralizing monoclonal antibodies are becoming increasingly important tools for treating infectious diseases and animal envenomings. However, designing and developing broadly‐neutralizing antibodies can be cumbersome using traditional low‐throughput iterative protein engineering methods. Here, we present a new high‐throughput approach

Necrotizing arachnidism: Diagnosing with inspection in insect bites

open access: yesGaziantep Medical Journal, 2014
Early diagnose and treatment in spider bites of Loxosceles species is extremely important in prevention of systemic and local complications. There is not any specific laboratory test or diagnostic clue except lesion's morphology and patient anamnesis.

[Necrotic and systemic arachnidism. A case report and review of the literature].

open access: yesBoletin medico del Hospital Infantil de Mexico, 1992
Arachnidism can be manifested either through the skin or systemically. The genus Loxosceles is typically associated with wide necrotic skin lesions, in some cases accompanied by a generalized affection. This is a clinical case of a 16-month-old male, with an ulcer-necrotic lesion in the inferior abdomen associated to a spider bite.
