pncA Mutations in Pyrazinamide-Resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis Isolates from Northwestern Russia [PDF]
ABSTRACT Thirty-six pyrazinamide-resistant and eight pyrazinamide-susceptible Mycobacterium tuberculosis isolates from Russia were analyzed for their pncA mutations. Thirty-one (86.1%) of the resistant isolates had a mutation either in pncA or upstream of the

This work demonstrates that endothelial EphA4 limits Tie2 activation and curbs leptomeningeal collateral expansion after ischemic stroke. Pharmacological activation of Tie2 by an Ang‐1 mimetic or genetic loss of EphA4 stimulates collateral vessel growth, improves cerebral perfusion, and enhances neurological recovery.

A Novel Molecular Strategy for Surveillance of Multidrug Resistant Tuberculosis in High Burden Settings. [PDF]
In South Africa and other high prevalence countries, transmission is a significant contributor to rising rates of multidrug resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB). Thus, there is a need to develop an early detection system for transmission clusters suitable for

Despite efficacious antiretroviral therapy, 10%–40% of HIV‐infected individuals exhibit inadequate immune reconstitution due to persistent inflammatory activation and NAD+ metabolic dysregulation—a critical cofactor in cellular bioenergetics. We administered silibinin to 53 HIV immunological non‐responders and elucidated its mechanism through selective

CHOPIN: a web resource for the structural and functional proteome of Mycobacterium tuberculosis. [PDF]
Tuberculosis kills more than a million people annually and presents increasingly high levels of resistance against current first line drugs. Structural information about Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) proteins is a valuable asset for the development of

Antibiotic Resistance: A Genetic and Physiological Perspective
The development of resistance to antimicrobials and their historical progression are depicted in this graphic. It draws attention to important biochemical, physiological, and genetic factors that contribute to AMR, such as the transmission of genes, the development of biofilms, and the inactivation of antibiotics.

Beyond the Nca: New Results for the Spectral Properties of the Anderson Model
In the framework of direct perturbation theory a fully self-consistent approximation beyond the well known NCA will be presented for the Anderson Model. The resummation of a class of skeleton diagrams up to infinite order in $V$ includes all contribution
