A glass of milk and a slice of bread do not look like medicine. But a new study from UC Riverside suggests that certain ...
The world is still in its seventh cholera pandemic, which has been surging since 2021, and case rates in various countries continue to be high. The disease is usually caused when water or food ...
Bacteria harness the power of communities. A research group at the University of Basel, Switzerland, has now discovered that the bacterial pathogen that causes cholera forms a novel type of bacterial ...
Previously, it was assumed that bacteria form biofilms to defend and protect themselves. Now, a new study by researchers at the University of Basel, Switzerland, has discovered that the bacterial ...
Cholera, a severe bacterial infection that causes diarrhea and kills if untreated, can be defeated with a diet high in protein, according to a new study from UC Riverside. Specifically, the study ...
Scientists have created a genomic blueprint for Aeromonas bacteria, which can cause antibiotic-resistant diarrheal disease—with symptoms often misidentified as cholera—in humans and animals. This ...
Researchers uncover a notorious cholera strain that contains sophisticated immune systems to fend off viruses, which potentially helped it to fuel a devastating epidemic across Latin America. When we ...
Some disease-causing bacteria congregate inside thick sugary ‘biofilms’, which shield the microbes from attack by host immune cells. But researchers have found that Vibrio cholerae, the comma-shaped ...
The cholera toxin, secreted by Vibrio cholerae, remains a central focus in understanding the molecular pathology of cholera. Its multi-faceted interaction with host cell receptors, predominantly the ...
Cholera remains a major global public health challenge, with an estimated 1.3 to 4 million cases and tens of thousands of deaths reported worldwide each year. Caused by the bacterium Vibrio cholerae, ...
