Article Synopsis
  • Neonatal hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) is a leading cause of death and disability in newborns, and caffeine has shown promise in mitigating its effects.
  • In a neonatal rat model, caffeine administration post-injury reduced brain damage and inflammation compared to controls, highlighting its potential benefits.
  • The study found that caffeine influences the AMPK/mTOR pathway, suggesting that targeting this pathway could enhance neuroprotection and improve outcomes for HIE, especially in regions lacking sufficient resources for treatment.

Streptococci, Lactococci and Enterococci all produce L-rhamnose-containing cell wall polysaccharides which define Lancefield serotypes and represent promising candidates for the design of glycoconjugate vaccines. The L-rhamnose containing Enterococcal Polysaccharide Antigen (EPA), produced by the opportunistic pathogen Enterococcus faecalis, plays a critical role in normal growth, division, biofilm formation, antimicrobial resistance, phage susceptibility, and innate immune evasion. Despite the critical role of this polymer in E.
