Sequential Regulation of Neurovascular Bone Regeneration in Large Bone Defects Using Black Phosphorus‐Europium Nanosheet Integrated TPMS Biomimetic Scaffold with Photo‐Controlled Ion Release

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
TPBE scaffolds, in conjunction with mild photothermal effects, effectively activate the PI3K/Akt signaling cascade, thereby promoting early neuronal differentiation and neurite growth. Short‐term (12 W) in vivo implantation studies revealed no significant pathological damage to major organs, providing preliminary evidence of the material's excellent ...

Baicalin Protects Mice from Lethal Infection by Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2017
Shiga-like toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) O157:H7 poses grave challenges to public health by its ability to cause severe colonic diseases and renal failure in both human and animals.

Baseline podocyte‐associated state and persistent cell–matrix transcriptional programs are associated with BALB/c substrain differences in adriamycin nephropathy

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Two closely related BALB/c substrains exhibit different early responses to adriamycin (ADR)‐induced nephropathy. BALB/cByJcl mice showed lower baseline WT1‐positive nuclei counts and NPHS1 immunoreactivity than BALB/cAJcl mice, together with extracellular matrix and integrin programs that were enriched at baseline and persisted at Day 5.

Comparative genomics of Shiga toxin encoding bacteriophages [PDF]

, 2012
Background Stx bacteriophages are responsible for driving the dissemination of Stx toxin genes (stx) across their bacterial host range. Lysogens carrying Stx phages can cause severe, lifethreatening disease and Stx toxin is an integral virulence factor.

THE USE OF MASS SPECTROMETRIC ANALYSIS FOR THE DETECTION OF BACTERIAL TOXINS

Журнал микробиологии, эпидемиологии и иммунобиологии, 2018
Toxins - molecular weight compounds produced by microorganisms, animals, plants and possessing antigene properties. Recently due to the perceived threat of terrorist actions identification of a number of bacterial toxins is especially important.

Postharvest Survival of Foodborne Pathogens on Strawberry Surfaces at Different Maturity Levels

Food Safety and Health, EarlyView.
This study highlights the survival of E. coli and L. monocytogenes on strawberries at different maturity stages and storage temperatures. Predictive microbial modeling revealed temperature‐ and ripeness‐dependent survival trends, emphasizing the importance of temperature control and ripeness in developing effective strategies to enhance strawberry ...

Bacterial Toxins: Friends or Foes?

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 1999
Many emerging and reemerging bacterial pathogens synthesize toxins that serve as primary virulence factors. We highlight seven bacterial toxins produced by well-established or newly emergent pathogenic microbes.

Microbial communities and functional diversity in seafood

JSFA reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Functional diversity encompasses ecosystem processes that enhance adaptability to environmental change. This study explores the diversity of microorganisms associated with seafood. In this paper, we present our knowledge of microbial diversity in relation to seafood.

Gas phase characterization of the noncovalent quaternary structure of Cholera toxin and the Cholera toxin B subunit pentamer [PDF]

, 2006
Cholera toxin (CTx) is an AB5 cytotonic protein that has medical relevance in cholera and as a novel mucosal adjuvant. Here, we report an analysis of the noncovalent homopentameric complex of CTx B chain (CTx B5) using electrospray ionization triple ...
