A series of compounds was synthesized and characterized to explore new antimicrobial agents. These compounds were evaluated by using the agar cup plate method. The most active compound exhibited a zone of inhibition 18±0.09 mm and 19±0.09 mm against E. Coli and S. aureus, respectively. To gain insights into the intermolecular interactions, molecular docking studies were performed at the active site of the glucosamine fructose 6 phosphate synthase (GlcN 6 p) enzyme (PDB Id: 1XFF). The results of the molecular docking studies are in agreement with the pharmacological evaluation with potent compounds, exhibiting docking scores of -11.2. However, deformability, B-factor and covariance computations showed a result that the most active compound favored molecular connections with the protein. Therefore, our research is important for the development of antimicrobial agents.

Streptococcus pyogenes remains one of the top ten causes of mortality from infectious diseases. Children in low-income nations have high carrier rates of Streptococcus pyogenes, which can serve as a source of infections, including simple superficial infections that may lead to invasive and post-streptococcal diseases, particularly among schoolchildren. This study aimed to assess the prevalence of Streptococcus pyogenes, associated factors, and antimicrobial susceptibility profiles among urban and rural public schoolchildren in Gondar City, Northwest Ethiopia.

Nanotechnology has experienced significant advancements, attracting considerable attention in various biomedical applications. This innovative study synthesizes and characterizes Ge/PLA/AuNCs (gelatin/PLA/gold nanocomposites) using Syzygium cumini extract to evaluate their various biomedical applications. The UV-Visible spectroscopy results in an absorption peak at 534 nm were primarily confirmed by Ge/PLA/AuNCs synthesis.

Breast cancer stem cells (CSCs) are difficult to therapeutically target, but continued efforts are critical given their contribution to tumor heterogeneity and treatment resistance in triple-negative breast cancer. CSC properties are influenced by metabolic stress, but specific mechanisms are lacking for effective drug intervention. Our previous work on TFEB suggested a key function in CSC metabolism.
