Redefining Therapies for Drug‐Resistant Tuberculosis: Synergistic Effects of Antimicrobial Peptides, Nanotechnology, and Computational Design

Advanced Healthcare Materials, Volume 15, Issue 14, 10 April 2026.
Antimicrobial peptide (AMP)‐loaded nanocarriers provide a multifunctional strategy to combat drug‐resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis. By enhancing intracellular delivery, bypassing efflux pumps, and disrupting bacterial membranes, this platform restores phagolysosome fusion and macrophage function.

In vitro activity of bedaquiline against rapidly growing nontuberculous mycobacteria [PDF]

, 2017
Bedaquiline (BDQ) has been proven to be effective in the treatment of multidrug-resistant tuberculosis. We hypothesized that BDQ could be a potential agent to treat nontuberculous mycobacterial (NTM) infection. The objective of this study was to evaluate

Exogenous Lipoid Pneumonia Caused by E‐Cigarette Use Following Exposure to Oil Spray and Waterproofing Spray: A Case Report

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 4, April 2026.
A man in his 30s working in furniture painting presented to our hospital with dyspnea. He was initially diagnosed with occupational asthma and treated accordingly, but his condition did not improve; ground‐glass opacities were observed on CT. He was admitted in December and underwent bronchoscopy, which revealed findings consistent with lipoid ...
