From pathogen to “living drug factory” innovative strategies and clinical translation of bacteria as programmable intelligent vectors for cancer therapy

BMEMat, EarlyView.
Engineered bacteria serve as smart, living therapeutics that target tumors, deliver drugs, and remodel immunosuppressive microenvironments. This review highlights their potential to potentiate immunotherapy, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy, offering a promising paradigm for precise and synergistic cancer treatment. Abstract The dynamic interplay between

Recent progress in proteins regulating the germination of Bacillus subtilis spores

Journal of Bacteriology
Bacterial spores can remain dormant for years, but they maintain the ability to recommence life through a process termed germination. Although spore germination has been reviewed many times, recent work has provided novel conceptual and molecular ...

Cell-surface copper transporters and superoxide dismutase 1 are essential for outgrowth during fungal spore germination

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2017
During fungal spore germination, a resting spore returns to a conventional mode of cell division and resumes vegetative growth, but the requirements for spore germination are incompletely understood.

Hierarchical recognition of amino acid co-germinants during Clostridioides difficile spore germination

Anaerobe, 2017
Bile acids are an important signal for germination of Clostridioides difficile spores; however, the bile acid signal alone is not sufficient. Amino acids, such as glycine, are another signal necessary for germination by C. difficile spores. Prior studies

Benchmarking of Fluorescent Proteins in Trichoderma reesei Using Flow Cytometry

Cytometry Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fungi are the subject of extensive research due to their significant impact on human life. However, the development of tools based on fluorescent proteins has been slow in these species. Trichoderma reesei, a filamentous fungus known for its high secretion capability, shows great potential for producing heterologous proteins.
