Unexpected role of pig nostrils in the clonal and plasmidic dissemination of extended-spectrum beta-lactamase-producing Escherichia coli at farm level

open access: yesEcotoxicology and Environmental Safety
The presence of methicillin-resistant or -susceptible S. aureus in pig nostrils has been known for a long time, but the occurrence of extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL)-producing E. coli has hardly been investigated. Here, we collected 25 E.

Repurposing FDA‐Approved Drugs to Inhibit Fungal PPTases for Broad‐Spectrum Synergy

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Fungal secondary metabolites serve as crucial virulence effectors; however, the potential of their biosynthetic pathways as antifungal targets remains inadequately comprehended. Repurposed FDA‐approved drugs inhibit fungal PPTase (essential for secondary metabolism) in vivo.

Broad‐Spectrum, Cell Envelope‐Active Marinocyclin Antibiotics From a Coral‐Derived Bacterium Are Effective Against Colistin‐Resistant Bacteria

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Marinocyclins, polycationic macrocyclic depsipeptides, were discovered by genome mining from the marine coral‐derived bacterium Aquimarina megaterium. The compounds have broad‐spectrum activity against gram‐positive and gram‐negative ESKAPE bacteria.

Reversing Macrophage Immunometabolic Dysfunction in Prolonged Infections Via a Glutaminolysis‐Fueled Restoration‐Based Hierarchically Selective Therapeutic System

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A hierarchically selective immunotherapeutic nanoplatform, mGls@HEV‐MTP, selectively restores macrophage immunocompetence through GLS1‐mediated restoration of glutaminolysis‐fueled anaplerosis. Concurrently, it renders Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) more readily recognizable to the metabolically reprogrammed macrophages, thereby facilitating ...

Unraveling A4GALT Mechanism and Its Modulation With Adamantyl‐Galactosylceramide Analogues: Advancing Fabry Disease Therapeutic Strategies

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
A 310‐helix‐mediated conformational switch promotes a front‐face SNi‐like catalysis by human A4GALT. Mechanism‐guided design identifies AdaGalCer as a selective modulator of globotriaosylceramide (Gb3) biosynthesis, opening a clear route toward new Fabry disease therapeutics.

Heterologous expression from Agrobacterium virulence promoters [PDF]

open access: yes, 1991
The aim of this work was twofold: to construct plasmids with a gene encoding a pesticidal protein expressed from an Agrobacterium tumefaciens virulence promoter and to determine, in planta, the sites of Agrobacterium vir-induction.

'Yersinia pseudotuberculosis' mntH functions in intracellular manganese accumulation, which is essential for virulence and survival in cells expressing functional Nramp1

open access: yes, 2010
Manganese has an important yet undefined role in the virulence of many bacterial pathogens. In this study we confirm that a null mutation in Yersinia pseudotuberculosis mntH reduces intracellular manganese accumulation.

Host‐Specific Interactions Between Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa Impair Epithelial Repair in Chronic Rhinosinusitis

open access: yesInternational Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is frequently associated with polymicrobial biofilms involving Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Interactions between these organisms are thought to influence disease severity, but the epithelial effects of exoproteins derived from patient‐matched cocultures remain poorly defined ...

Rational Design of a Synthetic Galliphore for the Diagnostic Nuclear Imaging and Treatment of Bacterial Infections

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
KO‐NH2 is a synthetic metallophore that preferentially binds Ga3+ over Fe3+ and is recognized by bacterial transporters. Photocrosslinking identifies CirA and Fiu as key uptake proteins in E. coli. KO‐NH2 enables targeted imaging and treatment of E. coli soft tissue infections.

Refining a preclinical model of viral myocarditis in accordance with biotech standards

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
This study aimed to refine a murine model of Coxsackievirus B3‐induced myocarditis by integrating dietary and imaging innovations to improve animal welfare, data quality, and clinical applicability. The refined diet significantly reduced animal health burden, reduced weight loss, and stabilized blood glucose during development of cardiac inflammation ...
