Journal ArticleDOI

Novel Phage Lysin Capable of Killing the Multidrug-Resistant Gram-Negative Bacterium Acinetobacter baumannii in a Mouse Bacteremia Model

TL;DR: PlyF307 represents the first highly active therapeutic lysin specific for Gram-negative organisms in an array of native lysins found in Acinetobacter phage and rescued mice from lethal A. baumannii bacteremia.
Journal ArticleDOI

Novel Engineered Peptides of a Phage Lysin as Effective Antimicrobials against Multidrug-Resistant Acinetobacter baumannii.

TL;DR: The prospect of using peptide derivatives from bacteriophage lysins to treat topical infections and remove biofilms caused by Gram-negative pathogens is demonstrated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Long-term hepatitis B infection in a scalable hepatic co-culture system.

TL;DR: It is shown that cell-culture and patient-derived hepatitis B virus can establish persistent infection for over 30 days in a self-assembling, primary hepatocyte co-culture system and that infection can be established without antiviral immune suppression, and susceptibility is not donor dependent.
Journal ArticleDOI

Selective expansion of myeloid and NK cells in humanized mice yields human-like vaccine responses

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that selective expansion of human myeloid and natural killer cells promotes transcriptomic responses akin to those of human vaccinees and correlates with the development of an antigen-specific cellular and humoral response to YFV-17D.
