Phage-Resistant Phase-Variant Sub-populations Mediate Herd Immunity Against Bacteriophage Invasion of Bacterial Meta-Populations

, 2019
Hypermutable loci are widespread in bacteria as mechanisms for rapid generation of phenotypic diversity within a population that enables survival of fluctuating, often antagonistic, selection pressures. Localized hypermutation can mediate phase variation

Characterizing RecA-Independent Induction of Shiga toxin2-encoding Phages by EDTA Treatment

, 2013
The bacteriophage life cycle has an important role in Shiga toxin (Stx) expression. The induction of Shiga toxin-encoding phages (Stx phages) increases toxin production as a result of replication of the phage genome, and phage lysis of the host cell also

Plant Virus Immunotherapy for HPV‐Associated Oropharyngeal Squamous Cell Carcinoma

Advanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
Cowpea mosaic virus (CPMV) nanoparticles are safe and potent cancer immunotherapy candidates with strong immunomodulatory activity. CPMV activates innate immunity, which in turn drives adaptive immune responses and promotes durable, systemic antitumor effects.

Heat Stress and Gut Microbiome Dynamics in Poultry: Interplay, Consequences, and Mitigation Strategies

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Heat stress disrupts gut microbial balance in poultry, impairing nutrient absorption and immunity. This review outlines the interplay between thermal stress and microbiome dynamics and discusses integrative mitigation strategies, probiotics, phytogenics, cooling systems, and genetic adaptation to enhance poultry resilience.

Integrating One Health to Mitigate the Emergence and Spread of Antimicrobial Resistance in Livestock and Aquaculture

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is an escalating global threat driven by antimicrobial use in aquaculture and livestock. Resistant pathogens and genes can spread across humans, animals, and the environment through interconnected ecosystems. Using a One Health approach, this review emphasizes antimicrobial stewardship, regulatory strengthening, enhanced ...

S. aureus colonization and clinical symptoms remain stable upon topical XZ.700 treatment: Results of a double‐blind randomized clinical trial in patients with mild to moderate atopic dermatitis

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aim Recovering dysbiosis may improve atopic dermatitis (AD) symptoms. XZ.700 is a recombinant chimeric endolysin that specifically targets Staphylococcus aureus and could be a new treatment option for patients with AD. The aim of this first‐in‐human study was to evaluate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of topical XZ.700 and explore the ...

Engineering Murine Cross‐Reactivity Into an Affibody to Human Death Receptor 5

Biotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Interspecies cross‐reactive protein therapeutics that target conserved epitopes across species are critical for translational research. The present study showcases the engineering of an affibody molecule, originally discovered for binding to human death receptor 5 (hDR5) with 94 nM affinity, to simultaneously acquire cross‐reactivity to murine
