Antimicrobial Peptides: An Emerging Category of Therapeutic Agents

Margit Mahlapuu, Joakim Håkansson, Lovisa Ringstad et al. · 27 Dec 2016

Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs), also known as host defense peptides, are short and generally positively charged peptides found in a wide variety of life forms from microorganisms to humans. Most AMPs have the ability to kill microbial pathogens directly, whereas others act indirectly by modulating the host defense systems. Against a background of rapidly increasing resistance…

Pseudomonas aeruginosa Lifestyle: A Paradigm for Adaptation, Survival, and Persistence

M. Fata Moradali, Shirin Ghods, Bernd H. A. Rehm · 15 Feb 2017

Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an opportunistic pathogen affecting immunocompromised patients. It is known as the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in cystic fibrosis (CF) patients and as one of the leading causes of nosocomial infections. Due to a range of mechanisms for adaptation, survival and resistance to multiple classes of antibiotics, infections by P. aeruginosa…

Impact of the Gut Microbiota on Intestinal Immunity Mediated by Tryptophan Metabolism

Jing Gao, Kang Xu, Hongnan Liu et al. · 6 Feb 2018

The gut microbiota influences the health of the host, especially with regard to gut immune homeostasis and the intestinal immune response. In addition to serving as a nutrient enhancer, L-tryptophan (Trp) plays crucial roles in the balance between intestinal immune tolerance and gut microbiota maintenance. Recent discoveries have underscored that changes in the microbiota modulate…

Colonization, Infection, and the Accessory Genome of Klebsiella pneumoniae

Rebekah M. Martin, Michael A. Bachman · 22 Jan 2018

Klebsiella pneumoniae is a Gram-negative pathogen that has a large accessory genome of plasmids and chromosomal gene loci. This accessory genome divides K. pneumoniae strains into opportunistic, hypervirulent, and multidrug-resistant groups and separates K. pneumoniae from two closely related species, K. variicola and K. quasipneumoniae. Some strains of K. pneumoniae act as opportunistic pathogens, infecting…

Biology of Acinetobacter baumannii: Pathogenesis, Antibiotic Resistance Mechanisms, and Prospective Treatment Options

Chang-Ro Lee, Jung Hun Lee, Moonhee Park et al. · 13 Mar 2017

Acinetobacter baumannii is undoubtedly one of the most successful pathogens responsible for hospital-acquired nosocomial infections in the modern healthcare system. Due to the prevalence of infections and outbreaks caused by multi-drug resistant A. baumannii, few antibiotics are effective for treating infections caused by this pathogen. To overcome this problem, knowledge of the pathogenesis and antibiotic…
