Drug Resistance in Leishmaniasis [PDF]
Journal of Global Infectious Diseases, 2010 The treatment options of leishmaniasis are limited and far from satisfactory. For more than 60 years, treatment of leishmaniasis has centered around pentavalent antimonials (Sb(v)). Widespread misuse has led to the emergence of Sb(v) resistance in the hyperendemic areas of North Bihar. Other antileishmanials could also face the same fate, especially in

Hsp90 governs dispersion and drug resistance of fungal biofilms [PDF]
, 2011 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]
, 2008 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.

Drug resistant tuberculosis [PDF]
BMJ, 1995 EDITOR,—Concern is growing over the spread of drug resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis. New evidence suggests that this spread may be increasing in certain sections of the British population. The recent advances in molecular techniques have equipped us with the means to make substantial inroads into the possible impact of drug resistant tuberculosis.1

MicroRNA and drug resistance [PDF]
Cancer Gene Therapy, 2010 Chemotherapy is the preferred treatment for malignancies. However, a successful long-term use of chemotherapy is often prevented by the development of drug resistance. Many mechanisms such as gene mutation, DNA methylation and histone modification have important roles in the resistance of cancer cells to chemotherapeutic agents.
