Antibiotic Resistance: A Genetic and Physiological Perspective

MedComm, Volume 6, Issue 11, November 2025.
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.

Exploring of pyrazinamidase recombinant activity from PZA-sensitive and resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis expressed in Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3) [PDF]

Brazilian Journal of Biology
The mutations of pncA gene encoding pyrazinamidase/PZase in Mycobacterium tuberculosis are often associated with pyrazinamide/PZA resistance. The H and R1 isolates showed significant phenotypic differences to PZA.

Value of pyrazinamide for composition of new treatment regimens for multidrug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis in China

BMC Infectious Diseases, 2020
Background Pyrazinamide still may be a useful drug for treatment of rifampin-resistant (RR-TB) or multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) in China while awaiting scale up of new drugs and regimens including bedaquiline and linezolid.

Direct Detection of Pyrazinamide Resistance in Mycobacterium tuberculosis by Use of pncA PCR Sequencing [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 2019
An in-house-developed pncA sequencing assay for analysis of pyrazinamide (PZA) resistance was evaluated using 162 archived Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTBC) isolates with phenotypic PZA susceptibility profiles that were well defined by analysis of Bactec MGIT 960 PZA kit and PZase ...

Event and elevation

Inscriptions, 2022
What is it like, the event in which we become ourselves? What is its relationship to other kinds of event? And where might the event happen? When people say today that they “stand with” or that they are “allies,” they are challenging hierarchical notions

Investigating the Mechanism of Antimycobacterial and Antiproliferative Activity of (E)‐N’‐Benzylidenepyrazine‐2‐Carbohydrazides and their Derivatives

ChemMedChem, Volume 20, Issue 18, September 25, 2025.
(E)‐N’‐benzylidenepyrazine‐2‐carbohydrazides with 2‐OH, 2,3‐diOH or 2,4‐diOH substitution exhibit good antimycobacterial or antiproliferative activity, and iron chelation similar to salicylaldehyde isonicotinoyl hydrazone (SIH). A series of 33 (E)‐N’‐benzylidenepyrazine‐2‐carbohydrazides and their derivatives were synthesized and tested for biological ...

Weight Cycling Deregulates Eating Behavior in Mice via the Induction of Durable Gut Dysbiosis

Advanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 32, August 28, 2025.
Weight cycling in Humans is suspected to dysregulate eating behavior. Mice submitted to body weight cycling by alternating western‐type and regular chow diets display increased hedonic appetite when exposed to a palatable diet, reminiscent of binge‐eating episodes.

Potential unexpected effects of meat reduction in diet: Could educational attainment influence meat substitution strategies?

Agricultural and Food Economics
Regulation of meat consumption appears to be a relevant public policy to limit diet-related greenhouse gas emissions. However, the real impact of such a policy (e.g., tax) on human health and nutrition remains uncertain, especially for underprivileged ...

Effects of alimentary-derived bacterial metabolites on energy metabolism in colonic epithelial cells and inflammatory bowel diseases

Exploration of Medicine
In this review, we present the main luminal fuels that are responsible for energy production in colonocytes, namely the bacterial metabolites short-chain fatty acids and lactate, which are produced from undigestible polysaccharides and proteins, and ...

pncA gene mutations in reporting pyrazinamide resistance among the MDR-TB suspects

Infection, Genetics and Evolution, 2019
Mutations in pncA gene contributing to PZA resistance was not clearly elucidated in China. To reveal the correlated mutations of pncA gene on pyrazinamide (PZA) resistance. 148 Mycobacterium tuberculosis clinical isolates were included from multi-drug resistant tuberculosis suspects.
