Alpha-defensins increase NTHi binding but not engulfment by the macrophages enhancing airway inflammation in Alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency by Jungnam Lee, Naweed Mohammad, Kyudong Han, Kyudong Han, Tammy Flagg-Dowie, Maria Magallon, Mark L. Brantly, Karina A. Serban, Karina A. Serban

“…Previous studies demonstrated that high, rather than low α-defensin level could modulate the local pro-inflammatory milieu of bronchial epithelial cells and macrophages promoting chronic inflammation and lower pathogen phagocytosis. IgG-mediated phagocytosis and NTHi adherence, engulfment and phagocytosis were measured in human alveolar macrophages and monocyte-derived macrophages (MDM) isolated from patients with AATD and from healthy individuals. …”

Photodynamic and photothermal bacteria targeting nanosystems for synergistically combating bacteria and biofilms by Xiao Wang, Wenxuan Shi, Yu Jin, Zhuoyuan Li, Tanjun Deng, Tingshu Su, Ao Zheng, Lingyan Cao

“…Present therapeutic methodologies are frequently impeded by the constraints of insufficient biofilm infiltration and the absence of precision in pathogen-specific targeting. In this current study, we have used chlorin e6 (Ce6), zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8), polydopamine (PDA), and UBI peptide to formulate an innovative nanosystem meticulously engineered to confront bacterial infections and effectually dismantle biofilm architectures through the concerted mechanism of photodynamic therapy (PDT)/photothermal therapy (PTT) therapies, including in-depth research, especially for oral bacteria and oral biofilm. …”
