Triple Therapy with High-Dose Proton-Pump Inhibitor, Amoxicillin, and Doxycycline Is Useless for Helicobacter pylori Eradication: A Proof-of-Concept Study [PDF]
INTRODUCTION: Helicobacter pylori resistance to antibiotics is steadily increasing and multidrug-resistant strains are common and difficult to eliminate, mainly in countries where bismuth, tetracycline, furazolidone, and rifabutin are unavailable. AIM:

Crystal structure of 1-methyl-2-[(E)-2-(4-methylphenyl)ethenyl]-4-nitro-1H-imidazole
In the title molecule, C13H13N3O2, the planes of the benzene and imidazole rings form a dihedral angle of 7.72 (5)°. In the crystal, molecules are linked by weak C—H...N and C—H...O hydrogen bonds, forming layers parallel to (100).

Targeting the substrate preference of a type I nitroreductase to develop antitrypanosomal quinone-based prodrugs. [PDF]
Nitroheterocyclic prodrugs are used to treat infections caused by Trypanosoma cruzi and Trypanosoma brucei. A key component in selectivity involves a specific activation step mediated by a protein homologous with type I nitroreductases, enzymes found ...
