Phage Therapy: Concept to Cure [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2012
The development and mass-production of antibiotics ranks as one of the twentieth cen-tury’s greatest scientific achievements. For more than 60 years, antibiotics have com-prised Western medicine’s primary defense against bacterial disease. But although antibiotics have saved millions of lives, our chemical shield has become increasingly leaky.

Phage therapy: progress in pharmacokinetics [PDF]

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences, 2018
ABSTRACT The concept of phage therapy exists in the history and it has been ignored for a long time, but the consequence of drug resistance in pathogen bacteria has forced the forgotten kingdom of phage therapy to be re-explored. However, for the successful implementation and acceptance of phage therapy worldwide, the number of factors need to be ...

Chromosomal DNA deletion confers phage resistance to Pseudomonas aeruginosa. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Bacteria develop a broad range of phage resistance mechanisms, such as prevention of phage adsorption and CRISPR/Cas system, to survive phage predation.

Development of host immune response to bacteriophage in a lung transplant recipient on adjunctive phage therapy for a multidrug resistant pneumonia.

open access: yesJournal of Infectious Diseases, 2022
Bacteriophage therapy is the use of viruses to kill bacteria for the treatment of antibiotic-resistant infections. Little is known about the human immune response following phage therapy. We report the development of phage-specific CD4+ T cells alongside

Phage therapies for plants and people [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 2014
The use of bacteriophages to combat bacterial infections may help to address the current crisis of antibiotic resistance. Fundamental issues arising from the ecological dynamic of host, bacterium and phage can be investigated in trees, offering both a natural approach to treating plant disease, and a chance to avoid creating a new resistance problem ...

Phages and phage therapy: past, present and future

open access: yesMicrobiologia Medica, 2020
Bacteriophages are viruses that infect bacteria. Since their discovery in the last century, they have proved their effectiveness in biocontrol of bacteria. In this mini-review, we provide a brief history of bacteriophages, their life cycle and classification.

Highly different effects of phage therapy and antibiotic therapy on immunological responses of chickens infected with Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2022
The appearance of bacteria resistant to most or even all known antibiotics has become a serious medical problem. One such promising and effective alternative form of therapy may be the use of phages, the administration of which is considered to be safe ...

The preclinical and clinical progress of bacteriophages and their lytic enzymes : the parts are easier than the whole [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The therapeutic potential of phages has been considered since their first identification more than a century ago. The evident concept of using a natural predator to treat bacterial infections has, however, since then been challenged considerably ...

Recent Progress in Phage Therapy to Modulate Multidrug-Resistant Acinetobacter baumannii, including in Human and Poultry

open access: yesAntibiotics, 2022
Acinetobacter baumannii is a multidrug-resistant and invasive pathogen associated with the etiopathology of both an increasing number of nosocomial infections and is of relevance to poultry production systems.

Characterization of the biosynthesized Syzygium aromaticum-mediated silver nanoparticles and its antibacterial and antibiofilm activity in combination with bacteriophage

open access: yesResults in Chemistry, 2023
Contamination with bacteria and organic matters is becoming a serious challenge for governments and a central issue for public health. Biosynthesized silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) are currently gaining attention due to the additional properties provided ...
