Dynamically Actuated Reconfigurable Topographical Surface Enables Active Control of Implant‐Associated Infections

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A dynamically actuated reconfigurable topographical surface (DARTS) integrates contact‐mediated bactericidal nanotopography with programmable mechanical actuation to actively disrupt bacterial biofilms. Dynamic surface reconfiguration enhances bacterial killing and suppresses implant‐associated infections in vivo, providing a new strategy for active ...

Epigenetic acquisition of inducibility of type III cytotoxicity in P. aeruginosa [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Bioinformatics, 2006
Abstract Background Pseudomonas aeruginosa, an opportunistic pathogen, is often encountered in chronic lung diseases such as cystic fibrosis or chronic obstructive pneumonia, as well as acute settings like mechanical ventilation acquired pneumonia or neutropenic patients.

Advancing SafeWax, A Bio‐Inspired Superhydrophobic Coating, Toward Sustainable and Climate‐Resilient Crop Protection

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study advances SafeWax, a bio‐inspired, fatty‐acids‐based superhydrophobic coating, by identifying an agriculturally compliant solvent and revealing how solvent‐controlled Fatty acid crystallization governs the coating's microscopic structure and performance.

The Pel polysaccharide modulates interspecies interactions between Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Mycobacterium abscessus

open access: yesmSystems
Modulator therapies have improved outcomes for people with cystic fibrosis (pwCF), and currently, more than 50% of pwCF are over the age of 18. This has resulted in an increased prevalence of atypical pathogens, including non-tuberculous mycobacteria ...

Protein secretion systems of Pseudomonas aeruginosa and P. fluorescens

open access: yesBiochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Biomembranes, 2003
Gram-negative bacteria have evolved numerous systems for the export of proteins across their dual-membrane envelopes. Three of these systems (types I, III and IV) secrete proteins across both membranes in a single energy-coupled step. Four systems (Sec, Tat, MscL and Holins) secrete only across the inner membrane, and four systems [the main terminal ...

Hydrogels Augmented With Artificial Sweeteners can Inhibit Multidrug‐Resistant Acinetobacter baumannii Growth and Biofilm Formation While Demonstrating Safety in Pre‐Clinical Pilot Human Trials

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Using PVA–borax hydrogels as carriers for off‐the‐shelf artificial sweeteners to fight multidrug‐resistant A. baumannii. These soft, biocompatible hydrogels rapidly reduce bacterial viability within multidrug‐resistant A. baumannii biofilms by more than 99% within one hour and sustain antimicrobial activity over time, while demonstrating safety in both

The modification landscape of P. aeruginosa tRNAs

open access: yes
RNA modifications have a substantial impact on tRNA function, with modifications in the anticodon loop contributing to translational fidelity and modifications in the tRNA core impacting structural stability. In bacteria, tRNA modifications are crucial for responding to stress and regulating the expression of virulence factors ...

Modelling the Dynamics of P. aeruginosa in the Formation of Biofilms

open access: yesThe 3rd International Joint Conference on Water Distribution Systems Analysis & Computing and Control for the Water Industry (WDSA/CCWI 2024)
The accumulation, growth, and re-mobilization of pathogens on the pipe walls in drinking water distribution systems are processes that affect the risk of exposure at the tap. We present a model that uses the Buckingham Pi theory to embody the physics of Pseudomonas aeruginosa accumulation and move within the system.
