Article Abstract
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a typically opportunistic pathogen responsible for a wide range of nosocomial infections. In this study, we designed two multi-epitope vaccines targeting P. aeruginosa proteins, incorporating cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL), helper T lymphocyte (HTL), and linear B lymphocyte (LBL) epitopes identified using reverse vaccinology and immunoinformatics approaches. The vaccines exhibited favorable physicochemical properties, including stability, solubility, and optimal molecular weight, suggesting their potential as viable candidates for vaccine development. Molecular docking studies revealed strong binding affinity to Toll-like receptors 1 (TLR1) and 2 (TLR2). Furthermore, molecular dynamics simulations confirmed the stability of the vaccine-TLR complexes over time. Immune simulation analyses indicated that the vaccines could induce robust humoral and cellular immune responses, providing a promising new approach for combating P. aeruginosa infections, particularly in the face of increasing antibiotic resistance.

d-2-Hydroxyglutarate dehydrogenase (D2HGDH) has recently received considerable attention due to the involvement of d-2-hydroxyglutarate in various medical conditions. This enzyme has been reported to diverge in substrate scope depending on whether its source is prokaryotic or eukaryotic. The D2HGDH from , D2HGDH, is of particular interest due to its requirement for survival via the l-serine biosynthesis pathway and its potential use as a therapeutic target against the bacterium.

For effective treatment of bacterial infections, it is essential to identify the species causing the infection as early as possible. Current methods typically require hours of overnight culturing of a bacterial sample and a larger quantity of cells to function effectively. This study uses one-hour phase-contrast time-lapses of single-cell bacterial growth collected from microfluidic chip traps, also known as a "mother machine".

Cystic Fibrosis (CF) is a multiorgan disease caused by mutations in the gene, leading to chronic pulmonary infections and hyperinflammation. Among pathogens colonizing the CF lung, is predominant, infecting over 50% of adults with CF, and becoming antibiotic-resistant over time. Current therapies for CF, while providing tremendous benefits, fail to eliminate persistent bacterial infections, chronic inflammation, and irreversible lung damage, necessitating novel therapeutic strategies.

Multidrug-resistant (MDR) and extensively drug-resistant (XDR) ESKAPE pathogens pose a significant global health threat due to their ability to evade antibiotics through intrinsic and acquired mechanisms. These bacteria, including , , , , , and species, evade antibiotics through intrinsic and adaptive mechanisms. Common strategies include capsule formation, biofilm, β-lactamase production, and efflux activity.
