Antimicrobial Polymers as Adjuvants/Synergists of Antibiotics to Combat Multidrug-Resistant Bacteria
The emergence of multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacteria due to the overuse and misuse of antibiotics in the medical and agricultural sectors has now become a critical global healthcare issue. Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) and synthetic mimics thereof have shown promise in combating MDR bacteria …

Two strategies to deepen knowledge the antibiotic resistance related traits in Italian MDR Staphylococci: comparative transcriptomic of two DAP-R/DAP-S MRSA isogenic couples and CRISPR system characterization of pathogenic S. epidermidis
… know the features of Multi-Drug Resistant (MDR) bacteria to develop new strategies to overcome the antibiotic resistance. Among the most common bacteria capable to infect humans and become resistant to antibiotics, the members of the genus Staphylococcus are the etiological agents of some …

Disentangling bacterial virulence mechanisms: Klebsiella pneumoniae targets post-translational modifications (PTMs) to manipulate innate immunity
… is a Gram-negative, multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacteria, causing nosocomial pneumonia, urinary tract infections (UTIs) and sepsis. Klebsiella’s subversion of the host immune response is critical for infection. Therefore, Klebsiella employs a range of novel mechanisms, including the …

The interplay between pathogenic bacteria and bacteriophage Chi: New directions in motility and phage-host interactions in Enterobacterales
The bacterial flagellum is a rotary motor that propels motile bacteria through their surroundings via swimming motility, or on surfaces via swarming motility. The flagellum is a key virulence factor for motile pathogenic bacteria. Viruses that infect bacteria via this appendage are known as …

Environmental and biological drivers of bacterial and antimicrobial resistance carriage by house flies (Musca domestica L.)
… of pathogenic and antimicrobial resistant (AMR) bacteria between environments visited for these reproductive and trophic needs. Confined cattle operations serve as an optimal environment to study fly-mediated pathogen and AMR acquisition, transmission and persistence due to the high antibiotic …

Identification of new therapeutic compounds against carbapenemase-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae using a novel agar-based high-throughput microarray compound screening approach
… developed resistance to most β-lactam antibacterial drugs used in clinical care. The most important of these drugs are carbapenems – a class of broad-spectrum antibiotics reserved for the treatment of infections caused by multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacteria. The emergence of carbapenem …
