Immune system detection of Pseudomonas aeruginosa persister cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Persister cells are a subpopulation of bacterial cells known to be tolerant to antimicrobials. Their reduced susceptibility to antimicrobials allows them to be the source of recurrence of many chronic bacterial infections.

Nigericin is effective against multidrug resistant gram-positive bacteria, persisters, and biofilms

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2022
Multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacteria pose a significant clinical threat to human health, but the development of antibiotics cannot meet the urgent need for effective agents, especially those that can kill persisters and biofilms.

In vitro activities of licochalcone A against planktonic cells and biofilm of Enterococcus faecalis

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2022
This study aims to evaluate the in vitro antibacterial and anti-biofilm activities of licochalcone A on Enterococcus faecalis and to investigate the possible target genes of licochalcone A in E. faecalis.

Early Body Mass Index z‐Score Change and Resolution of Severe Malnutrition in Children With Sickle Cell Anemia in a Low‐Income Setting: A Prospective Single‐Arm Extension Study

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Children with sickle cell anemia (SCA) in low‐income settings are at risk of severe malnutrition, but optimal nutritional management has not been established. We evaluated an intensified ready‐to‐use therapeutic food (RUTF) regimen in children with persistent severe malnutrition after initial treatment and assessed whether early ...

Monocaprin, Monolaurin, and Monomyristin Eradicate Staphylococcus aureus Persister Cells Through Membrane Disruption

open access: yesPharmaceuticals
Background/Objectives: Staphylococcus aureus persister cells significantly undermine antimicrobial therapy through their transient antibiotic tolerance, contributing to chronic and recurrent infections.

Persister control by leveraging dormancy associated reduction of antibiotic efflux.

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2021
Persistent bacterial infections do not respond to current antibiotic treatments and thus present a great medical challenge. These conditions have been linked to the formation of dormant subpopulations of bacteria, known as persister cells, that are ...

Signalingmediated bacterial persister formation

open access: yes, 2012
Here we show that bacterial communication through indole signaling induces persistence, a phenomenon in which a subset of an isogenic bacterial population tolerates antibiotic treatment.

Is bacterial persistence a social trait? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
All three authors are supported by Royal Society fellowships.The ability of bacteria to evolve resistance to antibiotics has been much reported in recent years. It is less well-known that within populations of bacteria there are cells which are resistant
