Abstract Chemotherapy fails to cure most cancer patients with advanced disease, particularly patients with the most common forms of solid tumors. The presence or development of resistance to anticancer agents is the major cause of this failure.

malERA: An updated research agenda for insecticide and drug resistance in malaria elimination and eradication. [PDF]
Resistance to first-line treatments for Plasmodium falciparum malaria and the insecticides used for Anopheles vector control are threatening malaria elimination efforts. Suboptimal responses to drugs and insecticides are both spreading geographically and

Drugging Drug Resistance [PDF]
Resistance to anticancer drugs is widely observed in vitro and in cancer patients, but its prevalence is too high to be solely explained by the acquisition of mutations. Sharma et al. (2010) now report that dynamic chromatin modifications may be an independent route to drug resistance in cancer cells that can be reversed by epigenetic drugs.
