Unlabelled: infections (CDI) cause almost 300,000 hospitalizations per year of which ∼15-30% are the result of recurring infections. The prevalence and persistence of CDI in hospital settings has resulted in an extensive collection of clinical isolates and their classification, typically by ribotype. While much of the current literature focuses on one or two prominent ribotypes ( .

Glioblastoma is the most aggressive brain cancer in humans with very poor prognosis and high mortality rate. Despite advances in treatment, glioblastoma almost always recurs and new therapeutic methods are urgently needed. This study aimed at assessing the cytotoxic and antiproliferative effects of AM 1172 and cannabidiol (two cannabinoid receptor ligands) in vitro, when used alone and in combination with cisplatin (a standard cytotoxic drug), in various human neuroblastoma (CHP-134, KELLY), human glioblastoma (U-87MG and T98G) and rat glioblastoma (C6) cell lines.

After identifying a urinary microbiota, new insights have emerged into how urinary tract infections (UTIs) develop and recur in women. This review explores factors influencing the urinary microbiome, and its role in UTI susceptibility and recurrence. Age, menopausal status, estrogen, and prior UTIs can impact the urinary microbiome significantly, with estrogen promoting predominance of beneficial Lactobacillus species in women.

Metastatic breast cancer (BC) can recur years after initial treatments and arise from quiescent disseminated tumor cells (QDTC) that resist conventional therapies. To date there are no treatments to target QDTCs. Previously, the fibrotic-like niche (FLN) enriched with Type I collagen (Col-I) was shown to be required for the switch of QDTC to overt metastases.
