Abstract Combinatorial drug therapies emerge among the most promising strategies to treat complex pathologies such as cancer and severe infections. Biocompatible nanoparticles of mesoporous iron carboxylate metal–organic framework (nanoMOFs) are used here address challenging aspects related coincorporation two antibiotics. Amoxicillin potassium clavulanate, a typical example drugs in tandem, efficiently coincorporated with payloads up 36 wt%. Due occurrence distinct pore sizes/apertures...

Pseudomonas aeruginosa has recently been highlighted by the World Health Organisation (WHO) as a major threat with high priority for development of new therapies. In severe P. infections, phospholipase activity type 3 secretion system toxin, ExoU, induces lysis target host cells and results in poorest clinical outcomes. We have developed an integrated pipeline to evaluate small molecule inhibitors ExoU vitro cultured cell models, including disease-relevant corneal epithelial (HCE-T) scratch...

The opportunistic pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa is one of leading causes disability and mortality worldwide the world health organisation has listed it with highest priority for need new antimicrobial therapies. P. strains responsible poorest clinical outcomes express either ExoS or ExoU, which are injected into target host cells via type III secretion system (T3SS). a bifunctional cytotoxin that promotes intracellular survival invasive by preventing targeting bacteria to acidified...

Infection models are essential tools for understanding host-pathogen interactions and developing noveltherapies. Ex vivo infection offer significant ethical practical advantages, enabling more accurate physiologically relevant insights compared to traditional cell culture systems. The versatility of porcine corneal ex has made them valuable studying a range ofpathogens, including Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus pneumoniae, Candida albicans, Acanthamoeba, viruses...

Microbial keratitis (MK) is a substantial cause of clinical blindness worldwide. Pseudomonas aeruginosa an opportunistic gram-negative bacterium and the leading MK. Infection models are vital tools in understanding host-pathogen interactions development novel therapies. As well as ethical practical advantages, ex vivo infection can allow researchers to better investigate more accurately than traditional cell culture systems. The versatility porcine corneal have been employed study various...

As demonstrated by Ruxendra Gref and co-workers in article number 1800360, two synergic drugs, amoxicillin potassium clavulanate, were co-encapsulated within highly porous nanoparticles made of metal-organic frameworks (nanoMOFs). Within the interconnected 3D structure, each drug located a separate compartment these findings supported molecular simulations. NanoMOFs efficiently internalized infected macrophages contributed together with entrapped drugs to kill intracellular bacteria.

*Correspondence - Stephen Kaye: S.B.Kaye@liverpool.ac.uk INTRODUCTION: Pseudomonas aeruginosa injects toxins, ExoS or ExoU, into host cells via the type III secretion system (T3SS) which destroy and help evade immune system. First-line fluoroquinolones demonstrate better in vitro activity against P. but certain clinical situations aminoglycosides are more effective. We evaluate effects of (moxifloxacin ciprofloxacin) (tobramycin gentamycin) on T3SS toxin expression, associated toxicity...
