Dynamic Persistence of Antibiotic-Stressed Mycobacteria

John McKinney, Neeraj Dhar, François Signorino-Gelo, Katrin Esther Schneider

Exposure of an isogenic bacterial population to a cidal antibiotic typically fails to eliminate a small fraction of refractory cells. Historically, fractional killing has been attributed to infrequently dividing or nondividing "persisters." Using microflui ...

Plaque-prone hemodynamics impair endothelial function in pig carotid arteries

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Sylvain Roy, Paolo Silacci, Veronica Gambillara

Hemodynamic forces play an active role in vascular pathologies, particularly in relation to the localization of atherosclerotic lesions. It has been established that low shear stress combined with cyclic reversal of flow direction (oscillatory shear stress ...
