Abstract Macrophages are the predominant cell type infected by Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) in tuberculosis (TB). Death of Mtb‐infected macrophages promotes tissue pathology and releases Mtb to infect other cells, suggesting that inhibiting the death of Mtb‐infected macrophages could be an adjunctive treatment of TB.

The effect of air pollution on plants is still underexplored, especially belowground. We used a field facility that released diesel exhaust and ozone at concentrations equivalent to those near a busy road in Reading, UK, to measure belowground gas exchange of Scots pine together with feeding by large pine weevils, a major pest of conifers.

Bioremediation of halogenated compounds: comparison of dehalogenating bacteria and improvement of catalyst stability [PDF]
Five bacterial strains were compared for halogenated compounds conversion in aqueous media. Depending on the strain, the optimal temperature for dehalogenase activity of resting cells varied from 30 to 45 degrees C, while optimal pH raised from 8.4 to 9 ...

<zakljucak> Humana R. equi infekcija jos uvek je retko oboljenje koje se javlja uglavnom kod osoba sa teskim stepenom imunodeficijencije. Najcesce se ispoljava u vidu subakutne bakterijske pneumonije sa kavitacijama, a karakterise se cestim recidivima, bakterijemijama i visokom stopom mortaliteta. Terapija R.

Catechins and Their Effect on the Gut Microbiome in Health and Cancer
ABSTRACT Catechins are a group of flavonoids found primarily in green tea, fruits, and berries; they play a significant role in the modulation of the gut microbiota, thereby having an impact on gut health and cancer prevention. Owing to their low bioavailability, catechins are transformed by the gut microbiota into various bioactive metabolites such as
