Phenol-Soluble Modulins Modulate Persister Cell Formation in Staphylococcus aureus
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020 Staphylococcus aureus is a human pathogen that can cause chronic and recurrent infections and is recalcitrant to antibiotic chemotherapy. This trait is partly attributed to its ability to form persister cells, which are subpopulations of cells that are ...

ColE-type plasmid bearing blaOXA-232 increases persister cell formation
Journal of Global Antimicrobial Resistance, 2023 Objectives: Bacterial persister cells are a sub-population of cells that are tolerant to high concentrations of antibiotics. In this study, we investigated the effect of plasmids bearing carbapenemase genes on persister cell formation.

Economics & Human Biology, 2021 We ask whether mortality from historical pandemics has any predictive content for mortality in the Covid-19 pandemic. We find strong persistence in public health performance. Places that performed worse in terms of mortality in the 1918 influenza pandemic also have higher Covid-19 mortality today.

Bacterial drug tolerance under clinical conditions is governed by anaerobic adaptation but not anaerobic respiration [PDF]
, 2014 Non-inherited antibiotic resistance is a phenomenon whereby a subpopulation of genetically identical bacteria displays phenotypic tolerance to antibiotics. We show that, compared to E. coli, the clinically relevant genus Burkholderia displays much higher

Foundations of Computational Mathematics, 2010 We describe a new methodology for studying persistence of topological features across a family of spaces or point-cloud data sets, called zigzag persistence. Building on classical results about quiver representations, zigzag persistence generalises the highly successful theory of persistent homology and addresses several situations which are not ...

High-Throughput Screening of a Promoter Library Reveals New Persister Mechanisms in Escherichia Coli
Microbiology Spectrum, 2022 Persister cells are a small subpopulation of phenotypic variants that survive high concentrations of bactericidal antibiotics. Their survival mechanisms are not heritable and can be formed stochastically or triggered by environmental stresses such as ...

, 2022 Background Phenotypic resistance is considered as a serious therapeutic challenge for which a definitive remedy has not been discovered yet. Biofilm and persister cell formation are two well-studied phenotypic resistance phenomena, leading to the ...

PERSISTENCE IN CONVERGENCE [PDF]
Macroeconomic Dynamics, 2013 In this paper, we examine the convergence hypothesis using a long memory framework that allows for structural breaks and does not rely on a benchmark country. We find that even though the long memory framework of analysis is much richer than the simple I(1)/I(0) alternative, a simple absolute divergence and rapid convergence dichotomy produced by the ...
