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 ...

Drug Resistance in Leishmaniasis [PDF]
SUMMARY Leishmaniasis is a complex disease, with visceral and cutaneous manifestations, and is caused by over 15 different species of the protozoan parasite genus Leishmania. There are significant differences in the sensitivity of these species both to the standard drugs, for example, pentavalent antimonials and miltefosine ...

Sudapyridine (WX-081), a Novel Compound against Mycobacterium tuberculosis
Bedaquiline (BDQ) was historically listed by the World Health Organization (WHO) in 2018 as the preferred option for rifampin-resistant tuberculosis (RR-TB) and multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB). However, when there is no other effective regimen,
