Impact of Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilm formation by different sequence types on treating lower limb vascular infections

Current Research in Microbial Sciences
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a major contributor to persistent chronic infections in clinical practice, owing to its robust biofilm formation capacity and frequent antimicrobial resistance acquisition.

Structural biology of ferritin nanocages

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Ferritin is a conserved iron‐storage protein that sequesters iron as a ferric mineral core within a nanocage, protecting cells from oxidative damage and maintaining iron homeostasis. This review discusses ferritin biology, structure, and function, and highlights recent cryo‐EM studies revealing mechanisms of ferritinophagy, cellular iron uptake, and ...

Antibiotic-resistance and virulence-related genes in commercially bottled natural mineral waters

BMC Microbiology
Background To date, the presence of antibiotics resistant genes (ARGs) and virulence-related genes (VRGs) has been evidenced in several surface waters, including natural surface water and wastewater, as well as drinking water.

Characterising resistance to Turnip mosaic virus (TuMV) in Turnip (Brassica rapa rapa) [PDF]

, 2008
A Brassica rapa rapa L. line has been identified with high resistance to seven isolates of Turnip mosaic virus (TuMV) (including UK 1, CHN 5, CZE 1, CDN 1, GBR 6, POL 1 and UK 4) representing the major pathotypes of the virus.

Organ‐specific redox imbalances in spinal muscular atrophy mice are partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotides

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We identified a systemic, progressive loss of protein S‐glutathionylation—detected by nonreducing western blotting—alongside dysregulation of glutathione‐cycle enzymes in both neuronal and peripheral tissues of Taiwanese SMA mice. These alterations were partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotide therapy, revealing persistent redox imbalance as ...

Antibiotics Resistance Genes

Ricos Biology
Antibiotic resistance has become one of the most pressing worldwide fitness issues, jeopardizing the effectiveness of contemporary medication. Resistance genes, commonly observed in cellular genetic factors such as plasmids, transposons, and integrons, are imperative to the spread of resistance across bacterial populations.

Transferrin receptor 1‐mediated iron uptake supports thermogenic activation in human cervical‐derived adipocytes

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In this study, we found that human cervical‐derived adipocytes maintain intracellular iron level by regulating the expression of iron transport‐related proteins during adrenergic stimulation. Melanotransferrin is predicted to interact with transferrin receptor 1 based on in silico analysis.

Cytogenetic and molecular identification of novel wheat-Elymus sibiricus addition lines with resistance to leaf rust and the presence of leaf pubescence trait

Frontiers in Plant Science
IntroductionEmerging new races of leaf rust (Puccinia triticina Eriks) are threatening global wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) production. Identifying additional resistance genes from all available gene pools is crucial to expanding wheat resistance to these
