The Mechanism of Bacterial Resistance and Potential Bacteriostatic Strategies
Bacterial drug resistance is rapidly developing as one of the greatest threats to human health. Bacteria will adopt corresponding strategies to crack the inhibitory effect of antibiotics according to the antibacterial mechanism of antibiotics, involving ...

In the field study many types of drug-resistant E. coli, Shigella and Citrobacter were isolated by this laboratory. And seven types of transmissible drug-resistance factor were obtained; R(TC) R(SM), R(CM. TC), R(SM. SA), R(CM. SM SA), R(TC. SM. SA) and R(CM. TC.SM. SA). The R(CM) factor was segregated from (CM.

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

Antimicrobial peptides for combating drug-resistant bacterial infections
The problem of drug resistance due to long-term use of antibiotics has been a concern for years. As this problem grows worse, infections caused by multiple bacteria are expanding rapidly and are extremely detrimental to human health. Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are a good alternative to current antimicrobials with potent antimicrobial activity and ...

Crosstalk between gut microbiota and tumor: tumors could cause gut dysbiosis and metabolic imbalance
In this research, we analyzed the relationship between gut microbiota and tumor. We discovered that both subcutaneous and metastatic tumors would alter the composition and metabolic function of gut microbiota. Meanwhile, fecal microbiota transplantation also indicated the anti‐tumor role of the gut microbiota, revealing the crosstalk between tumor and ...

Bacterial Antibiotic Resistance: The Most Critical Pathogens
Antibiotics have made it possible to treat bacterial infections such as meningitis and bacteraemia that, prior to their introduction, were untreatable and consequently fatal.

Limited effect of patient and disease characteristics on compliance with hospital antimicrobial guidelines [PDF]
Objective: Physicians frequently deviate from guidelines that promote prudent use of antimicrobials. We explored to what extent patient and disease characteristics were associated with compliance with guideline recommendations for three common infections.
