A Novel Antimicrobial Endolysin, LysPA26, against Pseudomonas aeruginosa
The global increase in multidrug resistant (MDR) bacteria has led to phage therapy being refocused upon. A novel endolysin, LysPA26, containing a lysozyme-like domain, was screened against Pseudomonas aeruginosa in this study. It had activity against MDR P. aeruginosa without pretreatment with an outer-membrane permeabilizer. LysPA26 could kill up to 4 log units P. aeruginosa in 30 min. In addi...
متن کاملAntimicrobial activity of PLUNC protects against Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection.
Epithelial antimicrobial activity may protect the lung against inhaled pathogens. The bactericidal/permeability-increasing protein family has demonstrated antimicrobial activity in vitro. PLUNC (palate, lung, and nasal epithelium associated) is a 25-kDa secreted protein that shares homology with bactericidal/permeability-increasing proteins and is expressed in nasopharyngeal and respiratory epi...
متن کاملConserved OprF as a Selective Immunogen Against Pseudomonas aeruginosa
Background & Objectives: Due to the importance of Pseudomonas aeruginosa in severe inpatient infections and high mortality, the need for an efficient vaccine against these bacteria is increasing. In this regard, the general outer membrane porin of the most problematic microorganism P. aeruginosa, outer membrane protein F (OprF), is a good vaccine cand...
متن کاملAntimicrobial Resistance Profile of Pseudomonas Aeruginosa Strains
Abstract Background and Objectives: Pseudomonas aeruginosa is the most common organism, which is separated from the burn infections. Due to increased antibiotic resistance, there are many problems to deal with the infections caused by Pseudomonas aeruginosa. This study aimed to determine the resistance to antibiotics against clinical isolates of Pseudomonas using phenotype me...
