High-level mupirocin resistance in methicillin-resistant staphylococci isolated from dogs and cats

open access: yesBMC Veterinary Research, 2019
Background Mupirocin is one of the few antimicrobials active against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), and is frequently used for the eradication of MRSA nasal colonisation in humans.

Enhanced strategies for cuproptosis‐like death in bacterial infection treatment

open access: yesBMEMat, EarlyView.
This review summarizes and examines the molecular mechanisms underlying cuproptosis‐like death. Furthermore, multi‐strategy efficacy enhancement and potential enhancement approaches are analyzed. Abstract Copper, a classical antibacterial metal, has long been of interest and widely used in medical and public health applications.

Hyperbranched poly‐L‐lysine surface‐engineered bioprosthetic heart valves with anti‐calcification, anti‐infection, and durability

open access: yesBMEMat, EarlyView.
The challenges of bioprosthetic heart valves (BHV) with respect to calcification, infection, and poor durability are tackled by surface engineering of hyperbranched poly‐L‐lysine (HBPL), providing a translational solution to improve long‐term valve performance.

Electron compensation‐gated nanomotor for immunomodulation and microenvironment remodeling in bacterial pneumonia therapy

open access: yesBMEMat, EarlyView.
A nanomotor featuring an “electronic lock” via electron compensation in an Au‐Ag alloy ensures therapeutic precision. Near‐infrared light acts as a key, unlocking on‐demand Ag+ release for synergistic bactericidal action and microenvironment remodeling to potently treat bacterial pneumonia. Abstract Bacterial pneumonia treatment is severely hampered by

Fungal Antimicrobial Resistance: Mechanisms, Drivers, and Global Clinical Burden

open access: yesChemFoodChem, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fungal antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a growing concern for world health caused by an increase in multidrug‐resistant infections, an increase in environmental reservoirs, and the ineffectiveness of current antifungal treatments. Fungal infections continue to be largely excluded from AMR initiatives while causing over 1.6 million deaths ...

Relay Approach: A Convergent Synthesis of Key Fragments en route to (+)‐Neosorangicin A

open access: yesChemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
A selective synthesis of three key fragments of the antibiotically active (+)‐neosorangicin A is reported, providing a foundation for its convergent total synthesis and proof of strategy via a relay approach. ABSTRACT Herein, we report the synthesis of the three key fragments of the macrolide antibiotic (+)‐neosorangicin A, a compound exhibiting potent

The Effect of Dicloxacillin Administration on Pharmacokinetics of Narrow Therapeutic Window Drugs: Phenytoin and Warfarin

open access: yesClinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Dicloxacillin is a penicillinase‐resistant beta‐lactam antibiotic and potent activator of the Pregnane X receptor (PXR), known to induce CYP2C9, CYP2C19, and CYP3A4 activity. Clinical data suggest it reduces anticoagulation in warfarin‐treated patients and increases the risk of thromboembolic events.
