TL;DR: Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an ubiquitous pathogen capable of infecting virtually all tissues as discussed by the authors, and a large variety of virulence factors contribute to its importance in burn wounds, lung infection and eye infection.
TL;DR: Current research application of new molecular methods to the study of L. monocytogenes may improve the ability to diagnose pregnancy-associated disease and permit the rapid detection and control of Listeriosis in the food supply.
TL;DR: This review summarises current knowledge of granule biology and highlights the effects of neutrophil degranulation in the acute inflammatory response.
TL;DR: The main antimicrobial effect of allicin is due to its chemical reaction with thiol groups of various enzymes, e.g. alcohol dehydrogenase, thioredoxin reductase, and RNA polymerase, which can affect essential metabolism of cysteine proteinase activity involved in the virulence of E. histolytica.
TL;DR: Endophytes are a novel source of potentially useful medicinal compounds and an intensive search for newer and more effective agents to deal with health problems caused by various cancers, drug-resistant bacteria, parasitic protozoans, and fungi is under way.
