Molecular mechanisms of drug resistance in natural Leishmania populations vary with genetic background [PDF]
The evolution of drug-resistance in pathogens is a major global health threat. Elucidating the molecular basis of pathogen drug-resistance has been the focus of many studies but rarely is it known whether a drug-resistance mechanism identified is ...

Hsp90 governs dispersion and drug resistance of fungal biofilms [PDF]
Fungal biofilms are a major cause of human mortality and are recalcitrant to most treatments due to intrinsic drug resistance. These complex communities of multiple cell types form on indwelling medical devices and their eradication often requires ...

Spread of anti-malarial drug resistance: mathematical model with implications for ACT drug policies. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Most malaria-endemic countries are implementing a change in anti-malarial drug policy to artemisinin-based combination therapy (ACT). The impact of different drug choices and implementation strategies is uncertain.
