GENETIC AND BIOCHEMICAL STUDIES OF BACTERIAL DRUG RESISTANCE
The KITAKANTO Medical Journal, 1973 Many papers have been presented on the enzymatic inactivation of the aminoglycosidic antibiotics by cell-free extracts obtained from drug-resistant strains of bacteria isolated from clinical specimens. Kanamycin is inactivated by two mechanisms responsible for the formation of 6-N-acetyl-kanamycin and 3'-phosphorylkanamycin.

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.The temporary transition of macrophages from a pro‐inflammatory phenotype of macrophages (M1) to an anti‐inflammatory phenotype of macrophages (M2) is crucial for tissue repair and regeneration processes. Bacterial outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) are utilized as a “trojan horse” for specific M1 macrophage‐targeting and anti‐inflammatory drug delivery ...
