Introduction: Oritavancin is a semi-synthetic lipoglycopeptide antibiotic primarily used to treat serious infections caused by Gram-positive bacteria. The aim of this study was to elucidate possible molecular targets of oritavancin in human and microbes in relevance to its mechanism of action and ...

Coastal sediments are the main deposition center for allochthonous and autochthonous organic carbon (OC). The discharge of terrestrial biomass, anthropogenic activities, oceanic primary productivity, and natural events contribute to this carbon pool. The OC buried in sediments undergoes alteration through physical, biological and chemical processes, becom ...

This investigation introduces the first estimation of ternary reactivity ratios for a butyl acrylate (BA), 2-methylene-1,3-dioxepane (MDO), and vinyl acetate (VAc) system at 50 °C, with an aim to develop biodegradable pressure-sensitive adhesives (PSAs). In this study, we applied the error-in-variables model (EVM) to estimate reactivity ratios. The ternar ...

Bacteria and fungi catabolize plant-derived aromatic compounds by funneling into one of seven dihydroxylated aromatic intermediates, which then undergo ring fission and conversion to TCA cycle intermediates. Two of these intermediates, protocatechuic acid and catechol, converge on ß-ketoadipate which is further cleaved to succinyl-CoA and acetyl-CoA. Thes ...

Candida albicans, an important fungal pathogen of humans, displays different morphologies, such as yeast, pseudo-hyphae and hyphae, which are recognized unequally by phagocytic cells of the innate immune response. Once C. albicans cells invade host tissues, immune cells such as macrophages are attracted to the site of infection and activated to recognize, ...

Cell bioprinting technologies aim to fabricate tissuelike constructs by delivering biomaterials layer-by-layer. Bioprinted constructs can reduce the use of animals in drug development and hold promise for addressing the shortage of organs for transplants. Here, we sought to validate the feasibility of bioprinting primary adult sensory neurons using a newl ...
