Enhancement of the antimycobacterial activity of macrophages by ajoene [PDF]
Ajoene, a garlic-derived sulfur-containing compound, has broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity. To assess the potential of ajoene for treating tuberculosis (TB), we determined whether it induces the stress response of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), which plays an important role in TB.

Discovery and Biosynthesis of the Novel Glycotetrapeptide Antibiotic Biffamycin A
Genetic de‐regulation of a silent biosynthetic pathway allowed isolation and characterisation of a novel glycopeptide antibiotic named biffamycin A, which harbours unprecedented 5‐chloro‐4‐methoxy tryptophan and 3R‐hydroxy(α‐D‐mannoysl)‐D‐lysine moieties and is bioactive against MRSA and VRSA.

Background Reporting adverse drug reactions (ADRs) is essential for drug safety. In Switzerland, healthcare professionals are legally required to report serious and unlabelled ADRs, yet under‐reporting remains widespread. We tested a novel method to increase reporting of ADR‐related hospitalizations.

The Antimycobacterial Activity, Toxicity and Chemical Composition of South African Propolis
This study presents one of the largest geographically diverse propolis collections reported globally, comprising 109 samples sourced from eight provinces across South Africa. The novelty of this work lies in the fact that it presents the first investigation of South African propolis against M. tuberculosis.
