A series of novel 7-(3-aminopyrrolo[3,4-c]pyrazol-5(2H,4H,6H)-yl)-6-fluoro-4-oxo-1,4-dihydroquinoline-3-carboxylic acid derivatives was designed, synthesized and characterized by (1)H-NMR, MS and HRMS. These fluoroquinolones were evaluated for their in-vitro antibacterial activity against representative Gram-positive and Gram-negative strains. Generally, all of the target compounds display rather weak potency against the tested Gram-negative strains, but most of them exhibit good potency in inhibiting the growth of S. aureus including methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and Staphylococcus epidermidis including methicillin-resistant S. epidermidis (MRSE) (MIC: 0.125-8 µg/mL). In particular, the compound 9g is 2 to 32 fold more potent than gemifloxacin (GM), moxifloxacin (MX), gatifloxacin (GT), and levofloxacin (LV) against S. pneumoniae 08-3, K. pneumoniae 09-23, and P. aeruginosa ATCC27853, 4 to 32 fold more potent than MX, GM, and LV against K. pneumoniae 09-21, and more active than or comparable to the four reference drugs against P. aeruginosa 09-32.

Statement Of Problem: Acrylic denture base resins are subject to colonization by oral and nonoral bacteria, contributing to the onset of denture stomatitis. However, how the addition of antimicrobial substances affects the mechanical and optical properties of additively manufactured denture base resin remains unclear.
Purpose: The purpose of this in vitro study was to investigate the surface roughness, color stainability, and flexural strength of antimicrobial-modified, additively manufactured polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) denture base resin in tooth and gingiva colors.

Objectives: IgA nephropathy (IgAN) is the most common primary glomerular disease in China, but its pathogenesis remains unclear. This study aims to explore the regulatory role of the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) signaling pathway in autophagy and mesangial proliferation during renal injury in IgA.
Methods: The activity of mTOR and autophagy was evaluated in kidney samples from IgAN patients and in an IgAN mouse model induced by oral bovine serum albumin and carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) injection.

The increasing threat of antimicrobial-resistant bacteria, particularly Staphylococcus aureus, which rapidly develops multidrug resistance and commonly colonizes wound surfaces, demands innovative strategies. Phage-encoded endolysins offer a dual-purpose approach as topical therapies for infectious skin wounds and synergistic agents to reduce high-dose antibiotic dependence. This study explores recombinant CHAPk (rCHAPk), efficiently synthesized within 3 h, displaying broad-spectrum antibacterial activity against 11 Gram-positive strains, including resistant variants, with rapid bactericidal kinetics.

Infection and insufficient osseointegration are the primary factors leading to the failure of titanium-based implants. Surface coating modifications that combine both antibacterial and osteogenic properties are commonly employed strategies. However, the challenge of achieving rapid antibacterial action and consistent osteogenesis with these coatings remains unresolved.
