Persisters, Persistent Infections and the Yin–Yang Model

open access: yesEmerging Microbes and Infections, 2014
Persisters are a small fraction of quiescent bacterial cells that survive lethal antibiotics or stresses but can regrow under appropriate conditions.

A Clinical Drug Library Screen Identifies Tosufloxacin as Being Highly Active Against Staphylococcus aureus Persisters

open access: yesAntibiotics, 2015
To identify effective compounds that are active against Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) persisters, we screened a clinical drug library consisting of 1524 compounds and identified six drug candidates that had anti-persister activity: tosufloxacin ...

Felodipine Enhances Aminoglycosides Efficacy Against Implant Infections Caused by Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus, Persisters and Biofilms

open access: yesBioactive Materials, 2022
Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), biofilms, and persisters are three major factors leading to recurrent and recalcitrant implant infections. Although antibiotics are still the primary treatment for chronic implant infections in clinical,

Persisting Cancer Cells Are Different From Bacterial Persisters [PDF]

open access: yesTrends in Cancer
The persistence of drug-sensitive tumors poses a significant challenge in cancer treatment. The concept of bacterial persisters, which are a subpopulation of bacteria that survive lethal antibiotic doses, is frequently used to compare to residual disease

Persistent Summaries

ACM Transactions on Database Systems, 2022
A persistent data structure , also known as a multiversion data structure in the database literature, is a data structure that preserves all its previous versions as it is updated over time.

To persist or not to persist?

Nonlinearity, 2004
Summary: Ecological vector fields \(\dot x_j= x_if_i(x)\) on the nonnegative cone \(\mathbb{R}^n_+\) on \(\mathbb{R}^n\) are often used to describe the dynamics of \(n\) interacting species. These vector fields are called permanent (or uniformly persistent) if the boundary \(\partial\mathbb{R}^n_+\) of the nonnegative cone is repelling. We construct an

Bakuchiol Kills Staphylococcus aureus Persisters and Potentiates Colistin Activity Against Acinetobacter baumannii Persisters

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology
Infections associated with bacterial persisters are challenging to cure because they can evade antibiotics and regrow, often resulting in relapse.

Bacterial Persisters: Molecular Mechanisms and Therapeutic Development

open access: yesSignal Transduction and Targeted Therapy
Persisters refer to genetically drug susceptible quiescent (non-growing or slow growing) bacteria that survive in stress environments such as antibiotic exposure, acidic and starvation conditions.

The Persistent Mystery of Adenovirus Persistence

Trends in Microbiology, 2016
Human adenovirus (HAdV) often causes acute, lytic infections which are readily recapitulated in culture models. Alternatively, HAdV can establish persistent infections which have been difficult to reproduce in cell culture and are poorly understood. A recent study reveals how HAdV can re-task the host cell antiviral response to establish persistence.
