Restoration of human tooth enamel

BMEMat, EarlyView.
Human tooth enamel has remarkable properties but lacks self‐repair ability. Existing restorative materials cannot fully replicate enamel's microstructure and function, resulting in low restorative efficiency. This review summarizes the formation process and characteristics of enamel, and current restorative materials and future research directions are ...

Functional CRISPR‐Cas9 knockout screening of the genetic determinants of human fibroblast migration propensity

Biotechnology Progress, EarlyView.
Abstract Directional cell migration plays a central role in a wide range of physiological and pathological conditions, such as embryonic development or tumor metastasis. Steps involved in cell migration include cell polarization, formation of membrane protrusions at the cell front side and adhesion disassembly at the rear side, and a general ...

A Promising Antibacterial Inhibition of Propolis Extracts Against Carbapenem‐Resistant Bacteria Isolated From Clinical Samples

Chemistry &Biodiversity, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The increasing inadequacy of antibiotics against multidrug‐resistant pathogens is a growing concern. In this study, the antibacterial activity of propolis extracts with different phenolic profiles against carbapenem‐resistant clinical isolates was investigated.

Streptococcus pyogenes-purpura fulminans as an invasive form of group A streptococcal infection

Annals of Clinical Microbiology and Antimicrobials, 2018
Background Streptococcus pyogenes is an uncommon pathogen of purpura fulminans, and the pathogenesis of S. pyogenes-purpura fulminans remains unclear because of paucity of cases. We reported a pediatric case of S.

Potent CRISPR-Cas9 inhibitors from Staphylococcus genomes. [PDF]

, 2020
Anti-CRISPRs (Acrs) are small proteins that inhibit the RNA-guided DNA targeting activity of CRISPR-Cas enzymes. Encoded by bacteriophage and phage-derived bacterial genes, Acrs prevent CRISPR-mediated inhibition of phage infection and can also block ...

The Influence of Bacteriophage on Streptococcus pyogenes [PDF]

Journal of General Microbiology, 1955
By the selective action of certain bacteriophages on cultures of susceptible streptococci it is possible to alter or enhance certain of their characteristics. The extractable M antigen may be greatly increased; non-mucoid strains may become completely mucoid with or without the increase in M antigen.

CRISPR Enabled Precision Oncology: From Gene Editing to Tumor Microenvironment Remodeling

Med Research, EarlyView.
CRISPR technology has progressed from a prokaryotic immune system to a diverse suite of editing platforms, including Cas nucleases, base and prime editors, and RNA‐targeting enzymes. These advances enable precise genomic and epigenomic interventions, high‐throughput functional screening, and immune engineering.
