This paper introduces an ex vivo bladder infection model using discarded mouse tissue to study host-pathogen interactions in UTI, showing comparable bacterial burden to in vivo models.

This study shows uropathogenic E. coli forms cocci inside host cells through FtsZ-driven division, revealing a new level of bacterial morphological plasticity.

This study shows that a non-pathogenic E. coli strain can exhibit pathogenic traits under infection conditions using live-cell fluorescence microscopy.

This study identifies CdpA as a protein involved in organizing and anchoring the division ring in Haloferax volcanii, showing its role in stabilizing FtsZ proteins during cell division.

This study identifies molecular adaptations in Acinetobacter baumannii resistant to silver nanoparticles and ionic silver, revealing distinct defense mechanisms in two resistant variants.
