#phagetherapy — Public Fediverse posts

Excited to share our new preprint on bacteriophage engineering 🦠 🎨

https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.64898/2026.02.20.706991v1

We establish a genomics-guided approach for inferring receptor-binding protein compatibility, which may guide host retargeting of therapeutic bacteriophage scaffolds. #AMR, #phagetherapy

For the FOSS-minded folks here: we also released the R package tailor which we used for key parts of the analysis: https://github.com/sbthandras/tailor

Habt ihr schonmal von Phagen (Therapie) gehört?

Ich find das so mindblowing, es hat viel Potenzial im Kontext von Antibiotikaresistenzen (Krise).

https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39976508/

…auch bezeichnend warum die amerikanisch, europäische Forschung das jetzt erst richtig aktiv angeht

"A century-old treatment that uses viruses to attack bacteria was successfully used in 2024 to save the life of a Singapore General Hospital (SGH) patient who had exhausted all care options for an antibiotic-resistant infection.

This made her the first patient in South-east Asia to benefit from phage therapy"

🦠 Antibiotic-resistant bacteria are a growing problem. Can ‘bacteria-eaters’ help? A research team at #ChariteBerlin has now succeeded in training bacteriophages – viruses that ‘eat’ bacteria – in such a way that they can better combat the pathogen P. aeruginosa even behind its protective shield, the biofilm.

👉 https://www.charite.de/en/research/paper_spotlight/2024/new_findings_on_bacteria_eaters/

Because #PhageTherapy is still in its infancy: Please use #antibiotics cautiously!
