Selective pressure by rifampicin modulates mutation rates and evolutionary trajectories of mycobacterial genomes

E. Cebrian-Sastre, A. Chiner-Oms, R. Torres-Perez, I. Comas, J. C. Oliveros, J. Blazquez, A. Castaneda-Garcia

This study shows that rifampicin increases mutation rates in Mycobacterium smegmatis, leading to higher resistance and diverse evolutionary paths in hypermutable strains.

Seawater salt-trapped Pseudomonas aeruginosa survives for years and gets primed for salinity tolerance

H. Elabed, E. Gonzalez-Tortuero, C. Ibacache-Quiroga, A. Bakhrouf, P. Johnston, K. Gaddour, J. Blazquez, A. Rodriguez-Rojas

This study shows that Pseudomonas aeruginosa trapped in salt crystals survives for years and develops enhanced salinity tolerance through genetic and physiological changes.

In Silico Identification and In Vitro Validation of Novel KPC-2 β-lactamase Inhibitors

R. Klein, P. Linciano, G. Celenza, P. Bellio, S. Papaioannou, J. Blazquez, L. Cendron, R. Brenk, D. Tondi

This study identifies and validates novel non-β-lactam inhibitors of KPC-2 β-lactamase through in silico screening and in vitro testing, showing one compound reduces meropenem MIC by fourfold.

Clay-induced DNA double-strand breaks underlay genetic diversity, antibiotic resistance and could be a molecular basis for asbestos-induced cancer

A. Rodriguez-Rojas, R. Radek, J. Rodriguez-Beltran, J. Blazquez, E. Gonzalez-Tortuero

The paper investigates how clay and asbestos fibers induce DNA double-strand breaks in bacteria, potentially contributing to antibiotic resistance and genetic diversity.
