Researchers at the National University of Singapore have engineered a common gut bacterium to carry a chemotherapy prodrug ...
Scientists have engineered probiotic bacteria to act as tumor-seeking drug factories. In mice, these bacteria infiltrated tumors and produced a cancer-fighting drug right where it was needed. This ...
Explore how probiotic bacteria might be engineered to fight cancer, using Escherichia coli Nissle 1917 in innovative ...
"There's great interest in how bacteria spread because they can play a role in everything from infections and agriculture to designing better vehicles for drug delivery and environmental waste ...
An AI model trained on large amounts of genetic data can predict whether bacteria will become antibiotic-resistant. The new study shows that antibiotic resistance is more easily transmitted between ...
With the rapid development of antibiotics in the 1930s, phage therapy – using viruses known as bacteriophages or phages to tackle bacterial infections – fell into oblivion. But as the current rise in ...
