ENHANCEMENT OF PYOCYANIN PRODUCTION BY SUBINHIBITORY CONCENTRATION OF ROYAL JELLY IN PSEUDOMONAS AERUGINOSA [VERSION 3; PEER REVIEW: 2 APPROVED, 1 APPROVED WITH RESERVATIONS]

Enhancement of pyocyanin production by subinhibitory concentration of royal jelly in Pseudomonas aeruginosa [version 3; peer review: 2 approved, 1 approved with reservations]

Background: Pseudomonas aeruginosa, a multidrug-resistant Gram-negative bacterium, produces pyocyanin, a virulence factor associated with antibiotic tolerance.High concentrations of royal jelly have an antibacterial effect, 5326058hx which may potentially overcome antibacterial resistance.However, in some cases, antibiotic tolerance can occur due t

YAP1 maintains active chromatin state in head and neck squamous cell carcinomas that promotes tumorigenesis through cooperation with BRD4

Summary: Analysis of The Cancer Genome Atlas and other published data of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) reveals somatic alterations of the Hippo-YAP pathway in approximately 50% of HNSCC.Better strategies to target the YAP1 transcriptional complex are sought.Here, we show that FAT1, an upstream inhibitor of YAP1, is mutated either by
