Competitive fitness of Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates in human and murine precision-cut lung slices

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2022
Chronic respiratory infections with the gram-negative bacterium Pseudomonas aeruginosa are an important co-morbidity for the quality of life and prognosis of people with cystic fibrosis (CF).

Conserved binding mode but diverse interfaces of MreC‐PBP2 interactions

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The crystal structure of abMreC reveals a conserved two β‐barrel architecture and provides structural insights into its role within the bacterial elongasome. The abMreC–abPBP2 complex model identifies the molecular basis of MreC‐mediated PBP2 recognition, contributing to the regulation of peptidoglycan synthesis.

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

Molecular 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 ...

Characterisation and Harnessing of 5‐Hydroxymethylfurfural Metabolism in Pseudomonas umsongensis GO16 for the Production of 2,5‐Furandicarboxylic Acid

Microbial Biotechnology
In the search for biobased alternatives to traditional fossil plastics, 2,5‐furandicarboxylic acid (FDCA) represents a potential substitute to terephthalic acid (TPA), a monomer of the ubiquitous polyester, polyethylene terephthalate (PET).

How phagocytic cells kill bacteria: Lessons from a professional killer

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
How phagocytic cells ingest and kill bacteria has been studied for more than a century, but many questions remain unanswered. The study of the amoeba Dictyostelium discoideum brings new answers, and new questions. Professional phagocytic cells such as neutrophils and macrophages, as well as free‐living soil amoebae like Dictyostelium discoideum, employ

Bacteriological profile and antimicrobial sensitivity pattern of wound infections in burns ward of a tertiary care hospital: a retro-prospective study

MGM Journal of Medical Sciences
Background: Nosocomial infections pose a significant risk to burn patients, contributing to high rates of morbidity and mortality. Burn injuries, particularly in developing countries, present a major public health concern.

Peptide Utilization by Pseudomonas putida and Pseudomonas maltophilia [PDF]

Journal of General Microbiology, 1976
Pseudomonas putida assimilates peptides and hydrolyses them with intracellular peptidases. Amino acid auxotrophs (his, trp, thr or met) grew on a variety of di- and tripeptides up to twice as slowly as with free amino acids. Pseudomonas putida has separate uptake systems for both dipeptides and oligopeptides (three or more residues).

Bacteria‐Responsive Nanostructured Drug Delivery Systems for Targeted Antimicrobial Therapy

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Bacteria‐responsive nanocarriers are designed to release antimicrobials only in the presence of infection‐specific cues. This selective activation ensures drug release precisely at the site of infection, avoiding premature or indiscriminate release, and enhancing efficacy.

Treatment trials of Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection in quails [PDF]

Journal of Veterinary Medical Research, 2006
An evaluation of the efficacy of different treatment trials in controlling Pseudomonasaeruginosa infection in quail chicks was done. Two probiotics (Lactobacilli and active dry yeast) and two fluoroquinolone antibiotics (Ciprofloxacin & ofloxacin) were ...

Isolation of salt-tolerant Pseudomonas strains with potential for alleviation of salt stress in peanut plant (Arachis hypogaea L.)

Acta Agriculturae Slovenica, 2022
Plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) is a promising solution to improve plant growth under salt stress. Among PGPR, Pseudomonas is a genus of bacteria that possesses a variety of mechanisms in promoting plant growth and inducing resistance to ...
