Cancer Cells Acquire Resistance to Anticancer Drugs: An Update

open access: yesBiomedical Journal, 2012
The efficacy of cancer chemotherapy is often affected by the emergence of resistant can-cer cells. While biochemical and pharmaco-logical mechanisms have been proposed to ex-plain chemo-resistance, the genes involved in this process have not been fully identified.

An Acquired Vulnerability of Drug-Resistant Melanoma with Therapeutic Potential [PDF]

open access: yesCell, 2018
BRAF(V600E) mutant melanomas treated with inhibitors of the BRAF and MEK kinases almost invariably develop resistance that is frequently caused by reactivation of the mitogen activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway. To identify novel treatment options for such patients, we searched for acquired vulnerabilities of MAPK inhibitor-resistant melanomas.

Characterizing the emergence and persistence of drug resistant mutations in HIV-1 subtype C infections using 454 ultra deep pyrosequencing. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
BACKGROUND: The role of HIV-1 RNA in the emergence of resistance to antiretroviral therapies (ARTs) is well documented while less is known about the role of historical viruses stored in the proviral DNA. The primary focus of this work was to characterize

Increasing Prevalence of HIV-1 Transmitted Drug Resistance in Portugal: Implications for First Line Treatment Recommendations

open access: yesViruses, 2020
Introduction: Treatment for All recommendations have allowed access to antiretroviral (ARV) treatment for an increasing number of patients. This minimizes the transmission of infection but can potentiate the risk of transmitted (TDR) and acquired drug ...

Spontaneous mutational patterns and novel mutations for bedaquiline and clofazimine resistance in Mycobacterium tuberculosis

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum, 2023
The 2022 World Health Organization guidelines recommend use of two core anti-tuberculosis (TB) drugs, bedaquiline (BDQ) and clofazimine (CFZ), for treatment of drug-resistant (DR)-TB.

miR-200c sensitizes breast cancer cells to doxorubicin treatment by decreasing TrkB and Bmi1 expression. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Acquired resistance to classical chemotherapeutics is a major obstacle in cancer treatment. Doxorubicin is frequently used in breast cancer therapy either as single-agent or in combination with other drugs like docetaxel and cyclophosphamide.

Community-Acquired Pneumonia with Risk for Drug-Resistant Pathogens [PDF]

open access: yesSouthern Medical Journal, 2013
Pneumonia is a leading infectious cause of morbidity and mortality in the United States. The Infectious Disease Society of America (IDSA) and American Thoracic Society (ATS) have published treatment guidelines for community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) based upon the site of acquisition and specific pathogen risk.

Effect of immediate initiation of antiretroviral treatment on the risk of acquired HIV drug resistance [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
OBJECTIVE: We estimated and compared the risk of clinically identified acquired drug resistance under i) immediate initiation (the currently recommended ART initiation strategy), ii) initiation with CD4
