Case Report: Maintenance of Desensitization to Nebulized Colomycin Over 10 Years

open access: yesFrontiers in Pediatrics, 2021
Drug desensitization can be achieved successfully by gradual drug dose increases in different protocols. Most protocols are designed to obtain temporal tolerance. The data on long-term maintenance of drug tolerance is scarce.

Unveiling drug-tolerant and persister-like cells in Leishmania braziliensis lines derived from patients with cutaneous leishmaniasis

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2023
IntroductionResistance against anti-Leishmania drugs (DR) has been studied for years, giving important insights into long-term adaptations of these parasites to drugs, through genetic modifications.

The Mycobacterial Efflux Pump EfpA Can Induce High Drug Tolerance to Many Antituberculosis Drugs, Including Moxifloxacin, in Mycobacterium smegmatis

open access: yesAntimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 2021
Active efflux of drugs across the membrane is a major survival strategy of bacteria against many drugs. In this work, we characterize an efflux pump, EfpA, from the major facilitator superfamily, that is highly conserved among both slow-growing and fast ...

CDK7 and MITF repress a transcription program involved in survival and drug tolerance in melanoma

open access: yesEMBO Reports, 2021
Melanoma cell phenotype switching between differentiated melanocytic and undifferentiated mesenchymal‐like states drives metastasis and drug resistance. CDK7 is the serine/threonine kinase of the basal transcription factor TFIIH.

The recent advancements of ferroptosis in the diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of ovarian cancer

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2023
Ovarian cancer affects the female reproductive system and is the primary cause of cancer related mortality globally. The imprecise and non-specific nature of ovarian cancer symptoms often results in patients being diagnosed at an advanced stage, with ...

Fatty acid metabolism of Mycobacterium tuberculosis: A double-edged sword

open access: yesMicrobial Cell, 2022
Unlike other heterotrophic bacteria, Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) can co-catabolize a range of carbon sources simultaneously. Evolution of Mtb within host nutrient environment allows Mtb to consume the host’s fatty acids as a main carbon source ...

Ligation of anti-cancer drugs to self-assembling ultrashort peptides by click chemistry for localized therapy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Self-assembling ultrashort peptides from aliphatic amino acids were functionalized with platinum anti-cancer drugs by click chemistry. Oxaliplatin-derived hybrid peptide hydrogels with up to 40% drug loading were tested for localized breast cancer ...

Distinct Effects of Moxifloxacin and Bedaquiline on Growing and ‘Non-Culturable’ Mycobacterium abscessus

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2023
Mycobacterium abscessus has recently emerged as the cause of an increasing number of human infections worldwide. Unfortunately, it is highly resistant to existing drugs, and new specific agents to combat M. abscessus have not yet been found.
