Cell-specific cargo delivery using synthetic bacterial spores
Cell Reports, 2023 Summary: Delivery of cancer therapeutics to non-specific sites decreases treatment efficacy while increasing toxicity. In ovarian cancer, overexpression of the cell surface marker HER2, which several therapeutics target, relates to poor prognosis.

Bacteriocins: Novel Solutions to Age Old Spore-Related Problems? [PDF]
, 2016 peer-reviewedBacteriocins are ribosomally synthesized antimicrobial peptides produced by bacteria, which have the ability to kill or inhibit other bacteria. Many bacteriocins are produced by food grade lactic acid bacteria (LAB).

Control of bacterial spores [PDF]
British Medical Bulletin, 2000 Bacterial spores are much more resistant than their vegetative counterparts. The most dangerous spore-former is Clostridium botulinum which produces a potent neurotoxin that can prove fatal. The most common food poisoning from a spore-former is caused by C. perfringens. Other food poisoning spore-formers include Bacillus cereus, B.

Bacterial Spores as Vaccine Vehicles [PDF]
Infection and Immunity, 2003 ABSTRACT For the first time, bacterial spores have been evaluated as vaccine vehicles. Bacillus subtilis spores displaying the tetanus toxin fragment C (TTFC) antigen were used for oral and intranasal immunization and were shown to generate mucosal and systemic responses in a murine model.

Responses of a bacterial pathogen to phosphorus limitation of its aquatic invertebrate host [PDF]
, 2008 Host nutrition is thought to affect the establishment, persistence, and severity of pathogenic infections. Nutrient-deficient foods possibly benefit pathogens by constraining host immune function or benefit hosts by limiting parasite growth and ...

Self-repairing of shrinkage crack in mortar containing microencapsulated bacterial spores
Journal of Materials Research and Technology, 2023 The purpose of this research work was to evaluate the efficacy of microbially induced calcite precipitation (MICP) method in shrinkage crack repairing. Portland cement was combined with sand, bacterial spores, water, and nutrients to prepare self-healing
