Advanced Science, EarlyView.A reversible wet chemical surface functionalization results in dynamic multivalent receptors showing ligand‐specific high affinity for lectins and bacteria. Abstract The paper reports the design of multivalent bacterial receptors based on reversible self‐assembled monolayers (rSAMs) on gold and glass substrates, mimicking the ligand display on host ...

Structure and function of Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli fimbriae from differing assembly pathways [PDF]
, 2014 Pathogenic enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) are the major bacterial cause of diarrhea in young children in developing countries and in travelers, causing significant mortality in children. Adhesive fimbriae are a prime virulence factor for ETEC, initiating colonization of the small intestinal epithelium.

Widespread distribution of prophage-encoded virulence factors in marine Vibrio communities
Scientific Reports, 2018 Prophages are known to encode important virulence factors in the human pathogen Vibrio cholerae. However, little is known about the occurrence and composition of prophage-encoded traits in environmental vibrios. A database of 5,674 prophage-like elements

Advanced Science, EarlyView.By employing a combination of single cell and spatial transcriptomic sequencing, this study presents a stereoscopic response of rice leaf to Magnaporthe oryzae infection. The vascular tissues mount defenses by producing phytoalexins. The immune strength is stronger toward the rice leaf tip than that of the leaf base.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Bacterial pneumonia is the sixth leading cause of death. In this study, an inhalable polymeric nanoparticle NPFCPS‐P is developed, which under US stimulation showed high efficacy in the treatment of acute bacterial pneumonia. This nanoplatform would be much less prone to select bacterial resistance and represented a promising measure for antibiotics ...

Antimicrobial peptide GH12 suppresses cariogenic virulence factors of Streptococcus mutans
Journal of Oral Microbiology, 2018 Cariogenic virulence factors of Streptococcus mutans include acidogenicity, aciduricity, and extracellular polysaccharides (EPS) synthesis. The de novo designed antimicrobial peptide GH12 has shown bactericidal effects on S.

H. pylori virulence factors [PDF]
British Medical Bulletin, 1998 Among people infected with Helicobacter pylori, the virulence of the infecting strain is a major determinant of who develops disease. Strains producing vacuolating cytotoxin activity are more commonly isolated from people with peptic ulcers than without.
