Molecular basis of antibiotic sensing by the TetR family regulator CecR – a structural perspective
Escherichia coli CecR, a member of the TetR family regulators, senses selected antibiotics and activates the expression of a putative drug efflux pump. Although present in many pathogenic Enterobacteriales strains, CecR remains poorly characterized. We present the first CecR crystal structure, which reveals a unique tunnel‐like ligand‐binding cavity ...

Sex Differences in Lung Immunity
ABSTRACT Biological sex has a significant impact on how the immune system develops and responds to foreign and self‐antigens. Sex differences exist in innate and adaptive immune cells, both at homeostasis and in the context of infection and inflammatory diseases such as asthma, cancer, and autoimmune disorders.

ABSTRACT The fluoroquinolone antimicrobial agents, enrofloxacin and marbofloxacin, were approved in the United States for cats in 1990 and 2001, respectively. In 2023, revised breakpoints for testing isolates from dogs were published. These canine breakpoints are discordant with the current feline breakpoints.

ABSTRACT Background Severe pneumonia in paediatric patients typically necessitates prolonged courses of antibiotic therapy, a practice that elevates vulnerability to antibiotic‐associated diarrhoea (AAD). Aim The present study aimed to evaluate the clinical profiles of paediatric patients with AAD secondary to severe pneumonia and to explore evidence ...

Direct single dose mass delabelling of antibiotic allergy in pediatrics
Abstract Background Unsubstantiated antibiotic allergy labels affect between 8% and 25% of the population worldwide. Current risk stratification tools, derived from adult data, are not validated for children. A simplified, multi‐patient protocol with minimal exclusion criteria is required to tackle the scale of this public health issue.
