The gram-negative, facultative anaerobic bacterium Morganella morganii is linked to a number of illnesses, including nosocomial infections and urinary tract infections (UTIs). A clinical isolate from a UTI patient in Bangladesh was subjected to high-throughput whole genome sequencing and extensive bioinformatics analysis in order to gather knowledge about the genomic basis of bacterial defenses and pathogenicity in M. morganii.

Infectious diabetic wounds pose an arduous threat to contemporary healthcare. The combination of refractory biofilms, persistent inflammation, and retarded angiogenesis can procure non-unions and life-threatening complications, calling for advanced therapeutics potent to orchestrate anti-infective effectiveness, benign biocompatibility, pro-reparative immunomodulation, and angiogenic regeneration. Herein, embracing the emergent "living bacterial therapy" paradigm, a designer probiotic-in-hydrogel wound dressing platform is demonstrated.

Multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacteria are becoming more and more common, which presents a serious threat to world health and could eventually render many of the antibiotics we currently use useless. The research and development of innovative antimicrobial tactics that can defeat these hardy infections are imperative in light of this predicament. Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs), which have attracted a lot of attention due to their distinct modes of action and capacity to elude conventional resistance mechanisms, are among the most promising of these tactics.

Bacterial biofilm infections are the root cause of persistent infections and the prevalence of resistance to specific or multiple antibiotics. Biofilms have unique features that provide a protective environment for bacteria under various stress conditions and contribute significantly to the pathogenesis of chronic infections. They cover bacterial cells with a self-produced extracellular polymeric matrix, effectively hiding the bacterial cells and their targets.
