Successful Use of Bimekizumab in Refractory Acute Generalised Exanthematous Pustulosis Triggered by Amoxicillin‐Clavulanate

JEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Acute generalised exanthematous pustulosis (AGEP) is a rare, acute neutrophilic dermatosis most commonly triggered by drugs, which typically resolves within 2 weeks following withdrawal of the causative agent. Topical and systemic corticosteroids remain the standard treatment.

Intestinal colonization due to Escherichia coli ST131: Risk factors and prevalence [PDF]

, 2018
Background Escherichia coli sequence type 131 (ST131) is a successful clonal group that has dramatically spread during the last decades and is considered an important driver for the rapid increase of quinolone resistance in E. coli.

Quinolone tolerance in Escherichia coli due to defects in the adenosine ribonucleotides de novo biosynthesis pathway

mLife, EarlyView.
Abstract Central carbon metabolism is thought to link reactive oxygen species (ROS) with antibiotic‐mediated bacterial death. During enrichment screening of Escherichia coli with the first‐generation quinolone oxolinic acid, unstable antibiotic‐tolerant mutants containing deficiencies in purB were obtained.

Genome‐wide screen reveals a universal role of ATP in ciprofloxacin tolerance among genetically distinct Escherichia coli persisters

mLife, EarlyView.
Abstract Bacterial persisters show tolerance to bactericidal antibiotics and play essential roles in chronic infections; however, the general mechanisms underlying persister formation and antibiotic tolerance remain insufficiently characterized. In this study, the Escherichia coli Keio library was used to identify genes involved in ciprofloxacin ...

The bactericidal activity of moxifloxacin in patients with pulmonary tuberculosis [PDF]

, 2003
Patients in whom acid-fast bacilli smear-positive pulmonary tuberculosis was newly diagnosed were randomized to receive 400 mg moxifloxacin, 300 mg isonaizid, or 600 mg rifampin daily for 5 days. Sixteen-hour overnight sputa collections were made for the

The Mycobacterium tuberculosis Rv0132c Gene Product Mtb‐FGD2 Can Act as an F420‐Dependent Glucose Dehydrogenase

Proteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The role of the cell envelope‐associated Rv0132c/FGD2 from Mycobacterium tuberculosis has long been a subject of debate. Importantly, FGD2 is found only in pathogenic mycobacteria, making it a potential drug target. While some suggest it functions as a glucose‐6‐phosphate dehydrogenase, others propose it acts instead as an F420‐dependent ...

Rare-Earth Metal Complexes of the Antibacterial Drug Oxolinic Acid: Synthesis, Characterization, DNA/Protein Binding and Cytotoxicity Studies

Molecules, 2020
“Drug repositioning” is a current trend which proved useful in the search for new applications for existing, failed, no longer in use or abandoned drugs, particularly when addressing issues such as bacterial or cancer cells resistance to current ...

A structured, behavioural science approach to the preparation of antimicrobial stewardship interventions for companion animal veterinarians

Veterinary Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Background A structured, behavioural science approach was adopted to develop antimicrobial stewardship interventions in UK first‐opinion companion animal veterinary practice. The objectives were to identify behavioural targets for intervention and to understand how practice contexts influence these behaviours.

2002–2022 Quinolone Resistance in Escherichia coli of Swine in Mainland China: A Meta-Analysis

Veterinary Sciences
Swine have emerged as significant reservoirs of antibiotic-resistant strains and genes. To establish a sound rationale for applying quinolone antibiotics in the swine industry, a meta-analysis was performed on the resistance rate of swine-derived ...
