Article Abstract
The antibacterial protein PAG14 was extracted from a metabolite of G14 isolated from mangrove plants. In this study, , , , and were used as indicator bacteria to screen endophytes that exhibited antibacterial activity. The endophyte culture conditions were optimized to enhance productivity. Subsequently, the culture supernatant was salted using ammonium sulfate, followed by purification using dextran gel chromatography and ion exchange column techniques. Finally, the structures of antibacterial proteins were identified using mass spectrometry. The optimal culture conditions for G14 were 2% mannitol, 0.5% fish peptone, 0.05% KH2PO4 + 0.05% K2HPO4 + 0.025% MnSO4·H2O. The antibacterial substances exhibited stability within the temperature range of 30-40°C and pH range of 5.0-7.0, while displaying sensitivity toward enzymes. The antibacterial activity decreased as the duration of UV irradiation increased. The antibacterial protein PAG14, isolated from the culture broth of G14 through purification using dextran gel and ion-exchange columns, was identified as a class III bacteriocin using LC-MS/MS, similar to Lysozyme C. These findings serve as a theoretical foundation for the investigation and application of bacteriocins in food products.

Objective: This scoping review explores existing clinical guidelines on administration of benzathine benzylpenicillin (Bicillin L-A, Pfizer Australia) in Australia and Aotearoa New Zealand. The objective is to understand existing delivery guidance to address variation in care and cultural safety considerations, to support messaging during periods of stockout and to inform planning for new administration techniques.
Data Sources: Semi-structured Google search to identify publicly available clinical resources for each jurisdiction of Australia and for New Zealand.

Background: Quality of life is an important goal of care for people living with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and their carers. The ALS Specific Quality of Life instrument Short Form (ALSSQOL-SF) has been translated and validated in various cultural contexts, however its utility in the Malaysian cultural context has not yet been evaluated.
Methods: The quality of life of 21 patients with ALS was evaluated using the ALSSOL-SF in either the English version or translated to the Malay language.

Microglia, the resident immune cells of the central nervous system (CNS), are involved in the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer's disease (AD), Dementia with Lewy Bodies (DLB), and Parkinson's disease (PD). 14-3-3 proteins act as molecular hubs to regulate protein-protein interactions, which are involved in numerous cellular functions, including cellular signaling, protein folding, and apoptosis. We previously revealed decreased 14-3-3 levels in the brains of human subjects with neurodegenerative diseases.

Background And Aims: Cholangiopathies, including primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC), primary biliary cholangitis (PBC), and post-COVID-19 cholangiopathy (PCC), involve chronic cholangiocyte injury, senescence, epithelial-stromal crosstalk, and progressive fibrosis. However, effective in vitro models to capture these interactions are limited. Here, we present a scaffold-free 3D multilineage spheroid model, composed of hepatocyte-like cells (HepG2), cholangiocytes (H69), and hepatic stellate cells (LX-2), designed to recapitulate early fibrogenic responses driven by senescent cholangiocytes.

Background And Aims: Gut-liver axis has been implicated in the pathophysiology of cirrhosis due to metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), an in vitro model for studying epithelial gut dysfunction in MASLD is lacking. In this study, we aimed to characterise intestinal organoids derived from subjects with MASLD.
Materials And Methods: Intestinal organoids were obtained from duodenal samples of individuals with non-fibrotic MASLD and with MASLD-cirrhosis.
