The determination of individual cell trajectories through a high-dimensional cell-state space is an outstanding challenge for understanding biological changes ranging from cellular differentiation to epigenetic responses of diseased cells upon drugging ...

Antibiotics have played a crucial role in the reduction in the incidence of TB globally as evidenced by the fact that before the mid-20th century, the mortality rate within five years of the onset of the disease was 50%.

Equine or porcine synovial fluid as a novel ex vivo model for the study of bacterial free-floating biofilms that form in human joint infections [PDF]
Bacterial invasion of synovial joints, as in infectious or septic arthritis, can be difficult to treat in both veterinary and human clinical practice.

Drug Dependence: Drug Addiction, Drug Abuse, Drug Tolerance and Dependence
Dependence means that when a person stops using a drug, their body goes through “withdrawal”: a group of physical and mental symptoms that can range from mild (if the drug is caffeine) to life-threatening (such as alcohol or opioids, including heroin and prescription pain relievers).

Metabolic and cardiac adaptation to chronic pharmacologic blockade of facilitative glucose transport in murine dilated cardiomyopathy and myocardial ischemia [PDF]
GLUT transgenic and knockout mice have provided valuable insight into the role of facilitative glucose transporters (GLUTs) in cardiovascular and metabolic disease, but compensatory physiological changes can hinder interpretation of these models.

Actionable mechanisms of drug tolerance and resistance in Mycobacterium tuberculosis
The emergence of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) across bacterial pathogens presents a serious threat to global health. This threat is further exacerbated in tuberculosis (TB), mainly due to a protracted treatment regimen involving a combination of drugs.

Drug tolerance to target therapy in melanoma revealed at single cell level: What next?
Drug resistance strongly impairs the efficacy of virtually every kind of anticancer therapy. This phenomenon is commonly fueled by intrinsic or acquired mechanisms.

Drug-Induced Epigenetic Changes Produce Drug Tolerance
Tolerance to drugs that affect neural activity is mediated, in part, by adaptive mechanisms that attempt to restore normal neural excitability. Changes in the expression of ion channel genes are thought to play an important role in these neural adaptations.

Phase variation in Mycobacterium tuberculosis glpK produces transiently heritable drug tolerance
Significance The ability of Mycobacterium tuberculosis to survive during prolonged treatment has been attributed to either transient stress responses or fixed heritable drug-resistance–producing mutations.
