Scientists discover small RNA that regulates bacterial infection People with weakened immune systems are at constant risk of infection. Further tests showed that the gene also regulates bacterial respiration under low oxygen conditions. Now, we know that oxygen levels are regulating this transition.”

The strip did indeed work, showing a positive for the bacterium in about 16 hours and indicating spoilage a few hours after that. To test out this microneedle strip, the researchers injected a piece of raw fish with E. coli , salmonella and a non-contaminated control fluid. They also waited for it to, essentially, rot.

Scientists at the Universities of Würzburg and Marburg have now succeeded for the first time in experimentally demonstrating that bacterial metabolites are able to increase the cytotoxic activity of certain immune cells and thus positively influence the efficiency of tumour therapies. The immune system is mentioned particularly frequently.

In September 2022, Roche acquired Good Therapeutics for an upfront payment of $250 million, and has access to their PD-1-regulated IL-2 program. The TPO receptor agonist regulates blood platelet production by binding to and activating TPO receptors on megakaryocyte cells and inducing signalling cascades that increase platelet production.
