Not only P-glycoprotein: amplification of the ABCB1-containing chromosome region 7q21 confers multidrug resistance upon cancer cells by coordinated overexpression of an assortment of resistance-related proteins [PDF]
The development of drug resistance continues to be a dominant hindrance toward curative cancer treatment. Overexpression of a wide-spectrum of ATP-dependent efflux pumps, and in particular of ABCB1 (P-glycoprotein or MDR1) is a well-known resistance ...

Bacteria‐Responsive Nanostructured Drug Delivery Systems for Targeted Antimicrobial Therapy
Bacteria‐responsive nanocarriers are designed to release antimicrobials only in the presence of infection‐specific cues. This selective activation ensures drug release precisely at the site of infection, avoiding premature or indiscriminate release, and enhancing efficacy.

Differentiation of hypervirulent and classical Klebsiella pneumoniae with acquired drug resistance
Distinguishing hypervirulent (hvKp) from classical Klebsiella pneumoniae (cKp) strains is important for clinical care, surveillance, and research. Some combinations of iucA, iroB, peg-344, rmpA, and rmpA2 are most commonly used, but it is unclear what ...
