Screening canine sources for novel antimicrobials reveals the circular broad-spectrum bacteriocin, caledonicin, produced by .

Introduction: Antimicrobial-resistant pathogens present an ongoing threat to human and animal health, with deaths linked to antimicrobial resistance (AMR) predicted to increase annually. While the misuse and overuse of antibiotics in humans undoubtedly contribute to this escalation, antibiotic use in the veterinary field, including companion animals, also plays a contributing role. Pet owners' desire to improve the quality of life of their pets is likely to support antibiotic use in this field.

Promiscuous, persistent and problematic: insights into current enterococcal genomics to guide therapeutic strategy.

Vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE) are major opportunistic pathogens and the causative agents of serious diseases, such as urinary tract infections and endocarditis. VRE strains mainly include species of Enterococcus faecium and E. faecalis which can colonise the gastrointestinal tract (GIT) of patients and, following growth and persistence in the gut, can transfer to blood resulting in systemic dissemination in the body.

Inhibition of the endosomal recycling pathway downregulates HER2 activation and overcomes resistance to tyrosine kinase inhibitors in HER2-positive breast cancer.

The development of HER2-targeted therapies has led to a dramatic improvement in outcomes for breast cancer patients. However, nearly all patients with metastatic HER2-positive breast cancer will eventually progress on these therapies due to innate or acquired resistance. Recent evidence suggests that the endosomal recycling of HER2 plays an important role in regulating its oncogenic signalling.
