In vivo antimicrobial activity of engineered mesoporous silica nanoparticles targeting intracellular #mycobacteria (doxycycline-loaded nanoparticles, zebrafish model of Mycobacterium marinum #infection) @lkremer1.bsky.social#mycobacteria#infection#DrugDevelopment

Announcing a call for a special issue on Nontuberculous Mycobacterial (NTM) Pathogens, led by our guest editors Sidharth Chopra, Arunava Dasgupta and @lkremer1.bsky.social! Accepting manuscripts on various themes. Deadline - March 30, 2026. @pubs.acs.org Link - pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/...

🦠 Intrabacterial lipid inclusion-associated proteins: a core machinery conserved from saprophyte Actinobacteria to the human pathogen Mycobacterium tuberculosis 🔓https://buff.ly/fI7675n @canaanlab.bsky.social @lkremer1.bsky.social @pierresantucci.bsky.social #LipidMetabolism #Mycobacterium

Thrilled to share our most recent paper describing the antimicrobial activity of engineered mesoporous silica nanoparticles targeting intracellular mycobacteria in macrophages and zebrafish. Outstanding work headed by Yara Tasrini, John Jairo Aguilera Correa, Miguel Gisbert and others. rdcu.be/eAcN4

Now out in Trends In Microbiology! Iron-sulfur proteins in mycobacteria: Master regulators of physiology and pathogenesis. Kudos to Valentin Berdal and Wassim Daher. Fantastic exchanges and discussions with leaders in the field: Béatrice Py, Sandrine Ollagnier de Choudens lnkd.in/dKGd2P8S

It is my real pleasure to share our ASAP article published in ACS Infect Dis. Another great collaboration with @pierresantucci.bsky.social @canaanlab.bsky.social @lkremer1.bsky.social @ibmm-balard.bsky.social @map-proteomique.bsky.social and more... Enjoy 😊 pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/...

Happy to let you know that our most recent paper describing the discovery, structure and biological functions of a new glycolipid in M. abscessus is now out ! This has only be possible thanks to a wonderful collaboration with the teams of JL Herrmann and Y Guerardel. rdcu.be/egVwe

Check out our last collaborative review article on the zebrafish models for drug discovery and therapeutic validation against non-tuberculous mycobacteria. Exciting discussions and interactions with Matt Johansen, Claire Hamela and Yi Ding. perspectivesinmedicine.cshlp.org/cgi/reprint/...

Happy that @map-proteomique.bsky.social has participated oh this nice story from @canaanlab.bsky.social in collaboration with @lkremer1.bsky.social @pierresantucci.bsky.social @jefcavalier.bsky.social link.springer.com/article/10.1...

Happy to share our last paper published in mBio. A new APEX story !! journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128/...

Thrilled to share the last work from the lab! Generating a mycobacterial strain lacking all T7SS and studying the contribution of ESX-3 and ESX-4 in M. abscessus pathogenesis. Great collab with E Tocheva and JL Herrmann. rdcu.be/d8uHH

Cold Spring Harbor Asia meeting on Mycobacterial Pathogenesis and Host Response, Suzhou, China, March 17-21, 2025. Abstract deadline Jan 10, 2025. www.csh-asia.org?content/2606

Trehalose polyphleates participate in Mycobacterium abscessus fitness and pathogenesis. DOI: 10.1128/mbio.02970-24 https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39475242/

Our last article dealing with Cyclipostin & Cyclophostins compounds to counteract macrolide-induced resistance in Mabscessus is out! Great collaborative work @lkremer1.bsky.social @canaanlab.bsky.social @pierresantucci.bsky.social @camoinluc.bsky.social jbiomedsci.biomedcentral.com/articles/10....

Together with Abdallah and Qingtian we just published this pan-genome analysis for M. marinum. I think it is a nice catalog, but standing out for me was the variation in the cpnT gene and the fact that ESX-2 is present in the majority of the M. marinum strains, just not in the type strain M...
