Relationship Between Fecal Bile Acid Profile and Intestinal Microbiota in Patients With Chronic Radiation Enteritis

Journal of Digestive Diseases, EarlyView.
Patients with chronic radiation enteritis (CRE) demonstrate dysregulated bile acid (BA) metabolism, characterized by an increased proportion of primary BAs and a decreased proportion of secondary BAs. Moreover, the diversity of the intestinal microbiota is significantly reduced in individuals with CRE, and there is a bidirectional interaction between ...

Activity of Ceftaroline against Enterococcus faecium PBP5 [PDF]

Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 2013
ABSTRACT The opportunistic human pathogen Enterococcus faecium overproduces the low-affinity PBP5. In clinical strains, mutations in PBP5 further reduce its acylation rate by β-lactams. Previous studies have reported that ceftaroline had poor inhibitory activity against β-lactam-resistant E ...
