Modulation of the nanoscale motion rate of Candida albicans by X-rays

IntroductionPatients undergoing cancer treatment by radiation therapy commonly develop Candida albicans infections (candidiasis). Such infections are generally treated by antifungals that unfortunately also induce numerous secondary effects in the patient. ...

Single-Cell Optical Nanomotion of Candida albicans in Microwells for Rapid Antifungal Susceptibility Testing

Sandor Kasas, María Inés Villalba

Candida albicans is an emerging multidrug-resistant opportunistic pathogen representing an important source of invasive disease in humans and generating high healthcare costs worldwide. The development of a rapid and simple antifungal susceptibility test ( ...

Self-Assembly of N-Rich Triimidazoles on Ag(111): Mixing the Pleasures and Pains of Epitaxy and Strain

Christian Wäckerlin, Ulrich Aschauer, Xing Wang, Mehdi Heydari

In the present report, homochiral hydrogen-bonded assemblies of heavily N-doped (C9H6N6) heterocyclic triimidazole (TT) molecules on an Ag(111) substrate were investigated using scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and low energy electron diffraction (LEED) ...

The Dynamics of Single-Cell Nanomotion Behaviour of Saccharomyces cerevisiae in a Microfluidic Chip for Rapid Antifungal Susceptibility Testing

Sandor Kasas, María Inés Villalba

The fast emergence of multi-resistant pathogenic yeasts is caused by the extensive-and sometimes unnecessary-use of broad-spectrum antimicrobial drugs. To rationalise the use of broad-spectrum antifungals, it is essential to have a rapid and sensitive syst ...

High-content, arrayed compound screens with rhinovirus, influenza A virus and herpes simplex virus infections

Gerardo Turcatti, Fabien Kuttler

Viruses are genetically and structurally diverse, and outnumber cells by orders of magnitude. They can cause acute and chronic infections, suppress, or exacerbate immunity, or dysregulate survival and growth of cells. To identify chemical agents with pro- ...

The Drosophila Baramicin polypeptide gene protects against fungal infection

Bruno Lemaitre, Mark Austin Hanson, Igor Iatsenko, Alice Marra

The fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster combats microbial infection by producing a battery of effector peptides that are secreted into the haemolymph. Technical difficulties prevented the investigation of these short effector genes until the recent advent of ...

Microfabricated nanomotion detectors for rapid cells viability tests

Anton Malovichko

The widespread use of antibiotics and antifungal drugs has provoked an increasing numberof multi-resistant bacteria and fungi. The emergence of multiresistance to antibiotics hasbeen now recognized as a very serious public health issue. In order to target ...

Yeast Nanometric Scale Oscillations Highlights Fibronectin Induced Changes in C. albicans

Giovanni Dietler, Sandor Kasas, Anne-Céline Verenna Kohler, Leonardo Venturelli

Yeast resistance to antifungal drugs is a major public health issue. Fungal adhesion onto the host mucosal surface is still a partially unknown phenomenon that is modulated by several actors among which fibronectin plays an important role. Targeting the ye ...

Organotin(IV) 4-(benzo[d][1,3]dioxol-5-ylmethyl)piperazine-1-carbodithioates: Synthesis, characterization and biological activities

Paul Joseph Dyson

A series of organotin(IV) derivatives R3SnL (1-3), R2SnLCl (4-6) and R2SnL2 (7-9) (where R = Me, Bu, Ph and L = 4-(benzo[d][1,3]dioxol-5-ylmethyl)piperazine-1-carbodithioate) were prepared from the reaction of 4-(benzo[d][1,3]dioxol-5-ylmethyl)piperazine-1 ...
