We found that these characteristics are associated with capsule-peptide aggregation, leading to disruption of the K. pneumoniae capsule. Our findings reveal a potential mechanism for disrupting the protective barrier that K. pneumoniae uses to avoid the immune system and last-resort antibiotics.Titanium carbide (Ti3C2Tx) MXene has great potential…[Read more]

t of mono-specific ATP-competitive PLK inhibitors, the PBD as drug target will support the design of new drugs that eradicate cancer cells based on the mitotic and non-mitotic function of PLK1 and PLK4.d-α-tocopherol (d-αToc), the most biologically active form of natural Vitamin E, is oily in appearance and unstable to oxygen.

1, the sodium bicarbonate cotransporter NBCe1, , or the electroneutral cotransporter, sodium-potassium-chloride cotransporter type 1 (NKCC1), but was significantly attenuated in 1 mM barium chloride (BaCl2) and by the Na+/K+ ATPase inhibitor ouabain. Effects of 1 mM BaCl2 and ouabain applied together were not additive and, together with rep…[Read more]
