Mucin induces CRISPR-Cas defence in an opportunistic pathogen

G. M. Almeida, V. Hoikkala, J. J. Ravantti, N. Rantanen, L.-R. Sundberg

The paper shows that mucin enhances CRISPR spacer acquisition in Flavobacterium columnare during phage infection, especially under low nutrient conditions and in the presence of competitor bacteria.

Bacteriophage adherence to mucus mediates preventive protection against pathogenic bacteria

G. M. Almeida, E. Laanto, R. Ashrafi, L.-R. Sundberg

This study shows bacteriophages can bind to mucus and protect fish from bacterial infections, suggesting mucus interactions are important for phage-bacteria dynamics and potential phage therapy.

CD44v6 expression is a novel predictive marker of therapy response and poor prognosis in gastric cancer patients

C. Pereira, D. Ferreira, C. Lemos, D. Martins, N. Mendes, D. Almeida, P. Granja, F. Carneiro, R. Almeida, G. M. Almeida, C. Oliveira

This study identifies CD44v6 expression as a predictor of therapy response and poor prognosis in gastric cancer patients, showing higher expression correlates with worse outcomes and benefit from chemotherapy.
