PMID: 34835755
Nanomaterials (Basel). 2021 Nov 06;11(11). doi: 10.3390/nano11112991.

The immune system contributes to maintaining the body's functional integrity through its two main functions: recognizing and destroying foreign external agents (invading microorganisms) and identifying and eliminating senescent cells and damaged or abnormal endogenous entities (such as cellular debris...

Fort CnoX: Protecting Bacterial Proteins From Misfolding and Oxidative Damage.

Frontiers in molecular biosciences

Dupuy E, Collet JF.
PMID: 34017858

The increasing development of antibiotic resistance in bacteria has been a major problem for years, both in human and veterinary medicine. Prophylactic measures, such as the use of vaccines, are of great importance in reducing the use of antibiotics...

Optimizing rapid diagnostics and diagnostic stewardship in Gram-negative bacteremia.

Pharmacotherapy

Wagner JL, Markovich KC, Barber KE, Stover KR, Biehle LR.
PMID: 34131939
Pharmacotherapy. 2021 Aug;41(8):676-685. doi: 10.1002/phar.2606. Epub 2021 Jun 29.

Antimicrobial resistance remains a high global concern, as it is associated with prolonged hospitalizations, increased morbidity and mortality, and escalating healthcare-related costs. Rapid diagnostic technology (RDT) has become the cornerstone in achieving prompt blood culture results providing a quicker...

Immunotoxins Targeting B cell Malignancy-Progress and Problems With Immunogenicity.

Biomedicines

Vallera DA, Kreitman RJ.
PMID: 30577664
Biomedicines. 2018 Dec 21;7(1). doi: 10.3390/biomedicines7010001.

Few immunotoxins or targeted toxins have become mainline cancer therapies. Still immunotoxins continue to be of major interest and subject of research and development as alternative therapies for drug resistant cancer. A major matter of concern continues to be...

Green Synthesis of Bromo Organic Molecules and Investigations on Their Antibacterial Properties: An Experimental and Computational Approach.

Acta chimica Slovenica

Longkumer N, Richa K, Karmaker R, Kuotsu V, Supong A, Jamir L, Bharali P, Sinha UB.
PMID: 33855504
Acta Chim Slov. 2019 Jun;66(2):276-283.

A simple, environmentally benign methodology has been developed to synthesize some bromoorganic compounds which have potential as antimicrobial agents. The required compounds were obtained through microwave (MW) irradiation, on-water reactions and using cetyltrimethylammonium tribromide (CTMATB) as the bromine source....

Proteomic Identification of Coxiella burnetii Effector Proteins Targeted to the Host Cell Mitochondria During Infection.

Molecular & cellular proteomics : MCP

Modulation of the host cell is integral to the survival and replication of microbial pathogens. Several intracellular bacterial pathogens deliver bacterial proteins, termed "effector proteins" into the host cell during infection by sophisticated protein translocation systems, which manipulate cellular...
