The alarming rise in hard-to-treat bacterial infections is of great concern to human health.
Thus, the identification of molecular mechanisms that enable the survival and growth of …

Although, a large proportion of pathogenic bacteria gets eliminated from hosts after antibiotic
treatment, a fraction of population confronts against such effects and undergoes growth …

Mechano-bactericidal surfaces deliver lethal effects to contacting bacteria. Until now, cell
death has been attributed to the mechanical stress imparted to the bacterial cell envelope by …

Aims Metal nanoparticles are promising materials for the management of infectious diseases
as known to have various antimicrobial activities in pathogenic micro‐organisms. Among …

Bacillary dysentery caused by Shigella spp. is a significant concern for human health. Small
non-coding RNA (sRNA) plays a crucial role in regulating antibiotic resistance and virulence …

Background: Bacterial persistence to antibiotics relates to the phenotypic ability to survive
lethal concentrations of otherwise bactericidal antibiotics. The quantitative nature of the time …

Emergence of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) as a potent antibacterial agent for clinical
application has raised attention towards its mode of action and needs detailed …

The key to bacterial virulence relies on an exquisite balance of signals between microbe
and hosts. Bacterial toxin–antitoxin (TA) system is known to play a vital role in response to …

An essential feature of the pathogenesis of the Salmonella enterica serovar Enteritidis wild
type (WT) is its ability to survive under diverse microenvironmental stress conditions, such as …

The host factor for RNA phage Qβ replicase (Hfq) is a crucial post-transcriptional regulator in
many bacterial pathogens, facilitating the interaction between small non-coding RNAs …
