Meropenem Incorporated ZnO Nanoflakes as Nano Antibiotics: Efficient Antimicrobial Activity against Metallo β-lactamase Producing Clinical Isolates

Journal of Pure and Applied Microbiology, 2023
The number of fatalities caused by multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacteria is over 700,000 annually due to widespread antibiotic usage. So, there is a need of new antibiotics, materials that work like antibiotics, or combinations of antibiotics with ...

Antimicrobial Activity of Ceftazidime-Avibactam (CAZ-AVI) among the Carbapenemase-Producing Gram-negative Rods Isolated from Clinical Samples

Journal of Medical Microbiology and Infectious Diseases, 2023
Introduction: Treating Gram-negative bacteria that produce extendedspectrum beta-lactamases (ESBLs), AmpC Beta lactamases, and carbapenemases is a significant clinical concern worldwide. To address this concern, Ceftazidime-Avibactam has been approved

MBL: mostly benign lymphocytes, but… [PDF]

Blood, 2011
In this issue of Blood, Fazi and colleagues have asked important questions and added several new observations to our understanding of monoclonal B-cell lymphocytosis(MBL) in its role as the precursor state of chronic lymphocytic leukemia or small lymphocytic lymphoma (CLL/SLL).

Sensitive CSF ELISAs for the detection of MBL, MASP-2 and functional MBL/MASP-2 [PDF]

Journal of Neuroscience Methods, 2012
Mannose binding lectin (MBL) mediated complement pathway is an important constituent of innate immune response in several infections including neuroinflammatory and neurodegenerative diseases. Although there are Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assays (ELISAs) for estimating MBL, MBL-associated serine protease-2 (MASP-2) and functional MBL-MASP-2 (fMBL ...

The chaperone and potential mannan‐binding lectin (MBL) co‐receptor calreticulin interacts with MBL through the binding site for MBL‐associated serine proteases [PDF]

The FEBS Journal, 2008
The chaperone calreticulin has been suggested to function as a C1q and collectin receptor. The interaction of calreticulin with mannan‐binding lectin (MBL) was investigated by solid‐phase binding assays. Calreticulin showed saturable and time‐dependent binding to recombinant MBL, provided that MBL was immobilized on a solid surface or bound to mannan ...

Genetic polymorphisms of mannan binding lectin (MBL), serum levels of MBL, the MBL associated serine protease and H-ficolin in patients with Crohn’s disease [PDF]

Gut, 2007
The observation of mannan binding lectin (MBL) expression in the small intestine1 suggests that MBL could be a component in the pathogenesis in Crohn’s disease. Seibold et al 2 recently compared the frequencies of MBL polymorphisms in 74 patients with Crohn’s disease with 32 healthy controls, and observed a significantly increased frequency of ...

Interaction of C1q and Mannan-Binding Lectin (MBL) with C1r, C1s, MBL-Associated Serine Proteases 1 and 2, and the MBL-Associated Protein MAp19 [PDF]

The Journal of Immunology, 2000
Abstract Mannan-binding lectin (MBL) and C1q activate the complement cascade via attached serine proteases. The proteases C1r and C1s were initially discovered in a complex with C1q, whereas the MBL-associated serine proteases 1 and 2 (MASP-1 and -2) were discovered in a complex with MBL.
