Reversible decrease in swimming motility accompanies emergent β-lactam antibiotic resistance in Escherichia coli

Lisa Stabryla, William Ackerman, Jennifer N Dootz…·Jason G. Kralj

This study shows that reduced swimming motility accompanies B-lactam antibiotic resistance in E. coli through efflux mechanisms, with motility recovery after antibiotic removal.

Epigenetic changes regulating the epithelial-mesenchymal transition in human trophoblast differentiation

William E. Ackerman, Maurício Rigo, Sonia C. DaSilva‐Arnold…·Nicholas P. Illsley

The paper identifies an epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) mechanism in human trophoblast differentiation, linking DNA methylation changes to gene expression and invasion capacity.
