Viable but non‐culturable and persistence describe the same bacterial stress state by Kim, Jun‐Seob, Chowdhury, Nityananda, Yamasaki, Ryota, Wood, Thomas K.

“…Summary Bacteria are often thought of as having two dormant phenotypes: the viable but non‐culturable (VBNC) state and the persister state. Here we investigate…”

Toxins Hha and CspD and small RNA regulator Hfq are involved in persister cell formation through MqsR in Escherichia coli by Kim, Younghoon, Wood, Thomas K.

“…Persisters are cells which evade stresses like antibiotics and which are characterized by reduced metabolism and a lack of genetic alterations required to…”

bacterial signal indole increases epithelial-cell tight-junction resistance and attenuates indicators of inflammation by Bansal, Tarun, Alaniz, Robert C, Wood, Thomas K, Jayaraman, Arul

“…Interkingdom signaling is established in the gastrointestinal tract in that human hormones trigger responses in bacteria; here, we show that the corollary is…”

Single cell observations show persister cells wake based on ribosome content by Kim, Jun‐Seob, Yamasaki, Ryota, Song, Sooyeon, Zhang, Weiwei, Wood, Thomas K.

“…Summary Since persister cells survive antibiotic treatments through dormancy and resuscitate to reconstitute infections, it is imperative to determine the rate…”

Persistence Increases in the Absence of the Alarmone Guanosine Tetraphosphate by Reducing Cell Growth by Chowdhury, Nityananda, Kwan, Brian W., Wood, Thomas K.

“…Most bacterial cells are stressed and as a result, some become tolerant to antibiotics by entering a dormant state known as persistence. The key intracellular…”
