Researchers have found a virus that kills dormant bacteria, a discovery that could help to combat infections that can’t be treated with antibiotics. For the first time, ETH Zurich researchers in Switzerland have isolated a bacteriophage from rotting plant material that can attack and kill bacteria in a dormant state.

Scientists discover small RNA that regulates bacterial infection People with weakened immune systems are at constant risk of infection. But the bacteria can sometimes change their behavior and enter the bloodstream, causing chronic localized infections to become acute and potentially fatal. aeruginosa infections.

We are talking about the microbiome – the vast collection of bacteria in the human gut. The microbiome has been the focus of research for 20 years – ever since a new technique made it possible to analyse these bacteria quickly and precisely: high-throughput sequencing. The immune system is mentioned particularly frequently.

Rebecca McClellan, Scientific Program Manager, Research, Development & Communications, explains how scientists are learning more about the connections between the microbiome and human health to potentially develop first-in-class microbiome therapies. They introduced hCom1 to mice that are carefully designed to have no bacteria present.
