H2O2 Kill Assays of Biofilm Bacteria
Bio-Protocol, 2013 Ubiquitous in nature and often surface associated, biofilms cause numerous chronic human infections. Biofilms are structured multicellular bacterial communities where cells are entrapped in a polymer matrix. Bacteria growing as biofilms are characterized

Aspergillus fumigatus enhances elastase production in pseudomonas aeruginosaco-cultures [PDF]
, 2015 In the cystic fibrosis (CF) lung the presence of bacteria and fungi in the airways promotes an inflammatory response causing progressive lung damage, ultimately leading to high rates of morbidity and mortality.

Vaccination to Prevent Pseudomonas aeruginosa Bloodstream Infections
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022 The bacterium Pseudomonas aeruginosa (Pa) is ubiquitous in the environment and causes opportunistic infections in humans. Pa is increasingly becoming one of the most difficult to treat microorganisms due to its intrinsic and acquired resistance to ...

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 ...

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.KHS‐Cnd peptide is able to impair biofilm formation and disaggregate mature biofilms in Acinetobacter baumannii clinical isolates. Differences in extracellular metabolites reflect changes in biofilm metabolism due to KHS‐Cnd treatment. Among the differentially represented extracellular metabolites upon KHS‐Cnd treatment, the significantly altered ...

Repurposing of Meropenem and Nadifloxacin for Treatment of Burn Patients? [PDF]
, 2009 The escalating number of multidrug resistant pathogens has demanded the swift development of new and potent antibiotics (ref. 2). Metallo-[beta]-lactamases (MBLs) continue to evolve, rendering the latest generation of carbapenem antibiotics useless (ref.
