Role of the O-Antigen of Lipopolysaccharide, and Possible Roles of Growth Rate and of NADH:ubiquinone Oxidoreductase (nuo) in Competitive Tomato Root-Tip Colonization by Pseudomonas fluorescens WCS365

Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 1998
Colonization-defective, transposon-induced mutants of the efficient root colonizer Pseudomonas fluorescens WCS365 were identified with a gnotobiotic system.

SiO2‐CaOCME/Poly(Tetrahydrofuran)/Poly(Caprolactone) 3D‐Printed Scaffolds Drive Human‐Bone Marrow Stromal Cell Osteogenic Differentiation

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
3D printed hybrid scaffolds combining bioactive silica–calcium chemistry with elastic polymers guide human bone stem cells to form bone. The scaffolds support cell survival, organization, and invasion while releasing osteogenic ions. Together, architecture and composition drive bone‐specific gene expression, extracellular matrix organization, and ...

Ti6Al4V‐Bioglass‐Copper Composites for Load‐Bearing Implants

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
We have designed and manufactured a novel Ti64‐based composite by adding 45S5 bioglass (BG) and copper (Cu). Adding BG on titanium improves wear resistance and biocompatibility, whereas Cu addition improves mechanical strength while providing inherent lifelong bacterial resistance.

A Synovium‐on‐Chip Platform to Study Multicellular Interactions in Arthritis

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
The Synovium‐on‐Chip comprises a thin microporous PDMS membrane to support co‐culture of fibroblast‐like synoviocytes (FLS), THP‐1‐derived macrophages, and endothelial cells, enabling real‐time analysis of synovial‐vascular interactions. FLS migration through the pores drives endothelial remodeling, while TNF‐α stimulation induces robust inflammatory ...

Genome-wide identification of root colonization fitness genes in plant growth promoting Pseudomonas asiatica employing transposon-insertion sequencing

Annals of Microbiology
Background Pseudomonas spp. are well-studied plant growth promoters, particularly in the context of root colonization. However, the specific genetic factors that determine its fitness in the rhizosphere remain largely unexplored.

Medical Fabrics with Non‐Antibiotic, Supramolecular Antimicrobial Coatings: A Preventive Approach to Combat Biofilm Formation and Bacterial Dissemination

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
The study presents an antibiotic‐free strategy using medical fabrics coated with supramolecular assemblies of polyarginine and hyaluronic acid. These coatings showed strong antimicrobial and anti‐biofilm activity in vitro and in vivo, achieving major bacterial load reductions, including against MRSA.

Characterization of NADH Dehydrogenases of Pseudomonas fluorescens WCS365 and Their Role in Competitive Root Colonization

Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2002
The excellent-root-colonizing Pseudomonas fluorescens WCS365 was selected previously as the parental strain for the isolation of mutants impaired in root colonization.

Evaluation of the Dual Impact of Nanotechnologies on Health and Environment Through Alternative Bridging Models

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This review explores how alternative invertebrate and small‐vertebrate models advance the evaluation of nanomaterials across medicine and environmental science. By bridging cellular and organismal levels, these models enable integrated assessment of toxicity, biodistribution, and therapeutic performance.
