Levels of persisters influenced by aeration in Acinetobacter calcoaceticusbaumannii

open access: yes, 2018
Aim: To evaluate the influence of aeration on persister levels from Acinetobacter calcoaceticus–baumannii isolates exposed to meropenem or tobramycin, as well as analyze morphological and structural changes in persisters. Materials & methods: Levels

Bacterial persisters in long-term infection: Emergence and fitness in a complex host environment

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2019
Despite intensive antibiotic treatment, Pseudomonas aeruginosa often persists in the airways of cystic fibrosis (CF) patients for decades, and can do so without antibiotic resistance development.

An unexpected alternative viologen electron mediator site in tungsten‐containing formate dehydrogenase

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
An unexpected alternative interaction site for ethyl viologen was identified in formate dehydrogenase 1 from Methylorubrum extorquens. Combined mutagenesis, kinetic analysis, and docking revealed that aromatic residues near an iron–sulfur cluster enable flavin mononucleotide‐independent electron transfer, offering a framework for engineering improved ...

Disrupting folate metabolism alters the capacity of bacteria in exponential growth to develop persisters to antibiotics

open access: yes, 2018
Bacteria can survive high doses of antibiotics through stochastic phenotypic diversification.We present initial evidence that folate metabolism could be involved with the formation of persisters.

Ubiquitination of secretory granules promotes their crinophagic degradation in Drosophila

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Ubiquitination of secretory granules in Drosophila larval salivary glands is a critical molecular trigger for crinophagy, the lysosomal degradation of unreleased, or low‐quality granules. The E3 ubiquitin ligase Cnot4 is recruited to the surface of secretory granules to induce crinophagy.

Proteomic characterization of persisters in Enterococcus faecium

open access: yes
International audienceBackground : Enterococcus faecium is a Gram-positive bacterium, naturally present in the human intestinal microbiota, but is also an opportunistic pathogen responsible for healthcare-associated infections. Persisters are individuals

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...

Circular RNA expression landscapes in myelodysplastic neoplasms: Associations with mutational signatures and disease progression

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
In this explorative study, the abundance of circular RNA molecules in bone marrow stem cells was found to be elevated in patients with high‐risk myelodysplastic neoplasms, and to be associated with an increased risk of progression to acute myeloid leukemia.

Boric Acid and Persisters in Candida Albicans

open access: yes, 2016
Persisters are a special group of quiescent and phenotypically unique cells in a given microbial population that survive antimicrobial insults or stresses but retain properties of the original population. Persisters have been characterized and studied in

Dimethyl fumarate combined with cisplatin at subcytotoxic doses sensitizes cervical cancer toward ferroptosis and apoptosis through GSH restriction and p53 (re)activation

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Dimethyl fumarate (DMF) reduces growth of HPV‐positive cervical cancer spheroids and induces ferroptosis in cervical cancer cells via blocking SLC7A11/Glutathione (GSH) axis. Combination of subcytotoxic doses of DMF and cisplatin (CDDP) further suppresses spheroid growth and drives cell death in 2D culture models.
