A series of N‐acetylmuramic acid (MurNAc)‐based electrophilic inhibitors targeting Ape esterase was synthesized. Their inhibitory potency ranged from micromolar to submillimolar. The study probed binding contributions of stem peptide extension, replacing the anomeric methyl group with a benzyl, and α‐fluorination of the carbonyl to enhance ...

Vaginal host–microbe signatures linked to placental outcomes in mares
Abstract Background Ascending placentitis is a leading cause of late‐term pregnancy loss in mares. Although pathogens are presumed to ascend from the caudal reproductive tract, the association between the vaginal microbiome and placentitis has not been systematically examined.

Abstract Rhodococcus equi is a facultative intracellular pathogen and a major cause of pneumonia in foals worldwide. The standard treatment for affected foals is a combination of a macrolide with rifampicin. The widespread use of this combination has led to the emergence of multidrug‐resistant (MDR) strains of R. equi.
