Drug Design and Delivery for Intracellular Bacteria: Emerging Paradigms

open access: yesDrug Development Research, Volume 86, Issue 8, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Intracellular bacteria exploit host cell niches, such as lysosomes, phagosomes, cytosol, entire cells, and even erythrocytes, to evade immune clearance and escape conventional antibiotics. These environments pose numerous therapeutic challenges, including crossing host cell membranes, navigating endosomal trafficking, tolerating acidic and ...

Novel Nonsense Mutation in SMARCD2 Gene Results in Dysplasia of All Myeloid Cell Lines

open access: yeseJHaem, Volume 6, Issue 6, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Introduction Specific granule deficiency type II (SGD2) is a rare heterogeneous congenital disease characterized by early‐onset life‐threatening infections. SGD2 is caused by autosomal recessive mutations in the SMARCD2 gene. Methods Prenatal screening in our patient revealed a novel homozygous nonsense mutation in SMARCD2 (c.208C>T, p.Gln70*).
