The Detection of Encoding Gene of Toxic Shock Syndrome Toxin-1 S. Aureus Isolate From the Milk of Cows and Goats by Polymerase Chain Reaction [PDF]

, 2013
Staphylococcus aureus is the main bacterium found in cow\u27s and goat\u27s milk. The bacteria can produce toxin called toxic shock syndrome toxin-1 (TSST-1) that can infect humans and animals causing several serious diseases. The objective of this study

Nanomedicine Meets Immunotherapy: Advancing Adoptive Cell Therapy with Nanoparticles in the Treatment of Cancer with Sustainability Perspectives

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This review surveys nanoparticle‐based strategies to enhance adoptive cell therapy, particularly CAR‐T cell approaches, in solid tumor treatment. It describes how nanoparticles can improve tumor immunogenicity and T‐cell infiltration while reducing toxicity, and how they enable in vivo CAR‐T cell generation.

Intestinal Source Control of Lipid Metabolism by Enzyme‐Probiotic Encapsulated, Spatiotemporal Crosslinked, and Small Intestine‐Adhesive Hydrogel Microspheres

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A thiol‐modified alginate hydrogel microsphere‐encapsulated enzyme‐probiotic biohybrid (AKK‐COD) system has been developed to address the spatiotemporal delivery and colonization challenges of small intestine‐targeted probiotic for lipid metabolism regulation. The system exerts sequential functions of intragastric protection, small intestinal adhesion,

Evolutionary blueprint for host- and niche-adaptation in Staphylococcus aureus clonal complex CC30

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2012
Staphylococcus aureus clonal complex CC30 has caused infectious epidemics for more than 60 years, and therefore provides a model system to evaluate how evolution has influenced the disease potential of closely related strains. In previous multiple genome

Multiscale Architecture and Mechanics of the Cell Nucleus: Implications for Disease, Bioengineering and Nanomedicine

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Nuclear mechanical properties are inherently scale‐dependent, arising from a hierarchical architecture that spans DNA, chromatin, the nuclear envelope, and condensates. Experimental techniques and theoretical models are integrated into a cohesive multiscale framework linking nanoscale structural features to organelle‐level mechanical behavior.

Interaction of toxin-1 and T lymphocytes in toxic shock syndrome

Frontiers in Bioscience, 2014
Toxic shock syndrome (TSS) is a potentially fatal illness caused by infection with the bacterium Staphylococcus aureus. TSS toxin-1 (TSST-1) contains a T-cell epitope with specificity for human V-beta-2. Binding of TSST-1 to the human major histocompatibility complex and T cell receptors activates T cells and triggers the secretion of high amounts of ...

Metformin enhances external urethral sphincter integrity and restores continence via AMPK activation in a rat model of stress urinary incontinence

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
The pathogenesis of stress urinary incontinence (SUI) is intimately associated with injury to the external urethral sphincter (EUS). In this study, we established an SUI model induced by double vaginal distension and demonstrated that metformin treatment activated the AMPK signaling in the EUS tissue.

Novel Toxic Shock Syndrome Toxin-1 Amino Acids Required for Biological Activity [PDF]

Biochemistry, 2008
Superantigens interact with T lymphocytes and macrophages to cause T lymphocyte proliferation and overwhelming cytokine production, which lead to toxic shock syndrome. Staphylococcus aureus superantigen toxic shock syndrome toxin-1 is a major cause of menstrual toxic shock syndrome. In general, superantigen-secreting S.

Porcine kidney xenotransplantation: From primate models to clinical reality

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
In the face of a critical shortage of human donor kidneys for end‐stage renal disease patients, porcine kidney xenotransplantation has emerged as a viable solution. This field has navigated major hurdles, including immune rejection, physiological incompatibilities, potential biomechanical differences and the risk of cross‐species infection. To overcome
