Modulating cell endocytosis activity to reduce host susceptibility to virus represents a promising strategy for antiviral drug development. In this study, we reveal that lactate transporter SLC16A3 as a critical host factor for reducing diverse virus invasion. By performing metabolomics, proteomi...
Aspergillus fumigatus is a notorious opportunistic pathogen that causes Invasive Aspergillosis (IA) infections with high mortality in immunosuppressed individuals. Long-term antifungal drug azole abuse in clinical treatment and agriculture renders it ineffectual or drug resistant. Drug resistance...
Microorganisms can adopt a quiescent physiological condition which acts as a survival strategy under unfavourable conditions. Quiescent cells are characterized by slow or non-proliferation and deep down-regulation of processes related to biosynthesis. Although quiescence has been described mostly...
Rapid detection of carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP) is essential for effective clinical management and surveillance. This study investigated volatile organic compounds (VOCs) as phenotypic biomarkers of carbapenem resistance, with the goal of developing a translationally...
Pasteurella multocida (Pm) is a significant cause of respiratory disease in beef cattle, with serious consequences for the cattle industry. The bacterial quorum-sensing (QS) system is used for communication and regulation of various processes, including bacterial growth, virulence, biofilm format...
The overuse of antibiotics has made public health and safety face a serious crisis. It is urgent to develop new clinical treatment methods to combat drug-resistant bacteria to alleviate the health crisis. The efficiency of antibiotics is closely related to the metabolic state of bacteria. However...
