Interventions on Metabolism: Making Antibiotic-Susceptible Bacteria

open access: yesmBio, 2017
Antibiotics act on bacterial metabolism, and antibiotic resistance involves changes in this metabolism. Interventions on metabolism with drugs might therefore modify drug susceptibility and drug resistance.

Multidrug resistance: Versatile drug sensors of bacterial cells [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 1999
One way that bacteria resist antimicrobial agents involves 'drug sensors', proteins that bind a range of structurally unrelated antimicrobial drugs and induce expression of multidrug resistance pumps. The basis for drug recognition is now becoming clear from the recently determined crystal structure of a drug sensor.

The MMP‐9/TIMP‐1 Ratio and Concentrations of Osteopontin Are Elevated in Cerebrospinal Fluid of People With Multiple Sclerosis and Decrease After Autologous Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives To evaluate the utility of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) biomarkers—matrix metalloproteinase‐9 (MMP‐9), tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases‐1 (TIMP‐1), the MMP‐9/TIMP‐1 ratio, and osteopontin (OPN)—as indicators of blood–brain barrier (BBB) integrity and disease activity in people with relapsing–remitting multiple sclerosis (pwMS ...

The Association between Mycobacterium Tuberculosis Genotype and Drug Resistance in Peru.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
BackgroundThe comparison of Mycobacterium tuberculosis bacterial genotypes with phenotypic, demographic, geospatial and clinical data improves our understanding of how strain lineage influences the development of drug-resistance and the spread of ...

Synergistic Activity of Fosfomycin, Ciprofloxacin, and Gentamicin Against Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa Biofilms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Gram-negative (GN) rods cause about 10% periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) and represent an increasing challenge due to emergence of antimicrobial resistance.

Multi-drug resistant gram-negative bacterial pneumonia: etiology, risk factors, and drug resistance patterns

open access: yesPneumonia, 2022
AbstractBacterial pneumonia is one of the most serious public health issues owing to its medical and economic costs, which result in increased morbidity and mortality in people of all ages around the world. Furthermore, antimicrobial resistance has risen over time, and the advent of multi-drug resistance in GNB complicates therapy and has a detrimental

Will Memantine Exacerbate Seizures in People With Epilepsy? A Prospective Cohort Study

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate whether add‐on memantine would exacerbate seizures in people with epilepsy. Methods This was a prospective cohort study. People with epilepsy diagnosed with cognitive impairment were consecutively invited. Those who agreed were followed up for at least 24 weeks.

Advancing Research on Biomaterials and Biological Materials with Scanning Electron Microscopy under Environmental and Low Vacuum Conditions

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Herein, environmental scanning electron microscopy (ESEM) is discussed as a powerful extension of conventional SEM for life sciences. By combining high‐resolution imaging with variable pressure and humidity, ESEM allows the analysis of untreated biological materials, supports in situ monitoring of hydration‐driven changes, and advances the functional ...
