Real-time multimodal imaging of daptomycin action on the cell wall of adherent Staphylococcus aureus by Alexis Canette, Rym Boudjemaa, Julien Deschamps, Karine Steenkeste, Christian Marlière, Romain Briandet, Marie-Pierre Fontaine-Aupart

“…Results description Daptomycin, at clinically relevant concentrations, rapidly eradicated adherent bacteria in the exponential growth phase, demonstrating an efficiency comparable to its action against planktonic cells. Prolonged exposure to the antibiotic caused marked alterations in the bacterial cell wall, including surface roughening and perforation, as revealed by multimodal imaging. …”

Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors: Antimicrobial Activity Against ESKAPEE Bacteria and Mechanisms of Action by Thiago Hideo Endo, Mariana Homem de Mello Santos, Sara Scandorieiro, Bruna Carolina Gonçalves, Eliana Carolina Vespero, Márcia Regina Eches Perugini, Wander Rogério Pavanelli, Gerson Nakazato, Renata Katsuko Takayama Kobayashi

“…Regarding their mechanisms of action as antibacterials, for the first time, increased membrane permeability was detected, as evidenced by heightened dye absorption, along with the increased presence of total proteins and dsDNA in the extracellular medium of <i>Escherichia coli</i> ATCC2 25922 and <i>Staphylococcus aureus</i> ATCC 25923, and oxidative stress was also detected in bacteria treated with sertraline and paroxetine, with reduced efficiency observed in the presence of antioxidants and higher levels of oxygen-reactive species evidenced by their reaction with 6-carboxy-2′,7′-dichlorodihydrofluorescein diacetate. …”

Action potential-like modes as modulated waves in an extended soliton model for biomembranes and nerves by J. A. Onana Inouga, S. E. Mkam Tchouobiap, M. Siewe Siewe, F. M. Moukam Kakmeni

“…By extending the Heimburg–Jackson soliton model for neural signals that considers the effects of higher-order nonlinearities, the dynamics of modulated waves characterizing electromechanical density pulses is described in the form of soliton-like pulse signals representing nerve impulses, well-known as action potential pulses (Appulses). The investigation is performed both analytically and numerically, where a comprehensive picture of higher-order nonlinearities effects on the generation and evolution of nerve impulses is provided. …”
