High isoniazid resistance rates in rifampicin susceptible Mycobacterium tuberculosis pulmonary isolates from Pakistan.

PLoS ONE, 2012
BackgroundRapid new diagnostic methods (including Xpert MTB/RIF assay) use rifampicin resistance as a surrogate marker for multidrug resistant tuberculosis. Patients infected with rifampicin susceptible strains are prescribed first line anti-tuberculosis

Ceftriaxone‐induced liver injury: Incidence, phenotypic characterization and predictive factors

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Introduction Ceftriaxone is a widely used third‐generation cephalosporin in hospitalized patients. Although generally considered safe, it has been associated with hepatobiliary complications and emerging reports of drug‐induced liver injury (DILI). However, data on its true incidence, phenotypic patterns, and predictors remain limited. This study aimed

Pharmacogenomics of dolutegravir: A scoping review of evidence, gaps and clinical implications

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Dolutegravir underpins modern first‐ and second‐line HIV treatment regimens; however, interindividual variability in its disposition and tolerability presents challenges for optimal use. This scoping review mapped current evidence on the pharmacogenomics of dolutegravir, focusing on pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics, and methodological limitations ...

Plasmid-mediated rifampicin resistance in Pseudomonas fluorescens [PDF]

Journal of Medical Microbiology, 1998
Rifampicin is an antibiotic mostly used to treat tuberculosis and leprosy, and, occasionally, other diseases. Resistance is due to alterations in membrane permeability or to mutation in the rpoB gene coding for mRNA polymerase. Both these mechanisms originate via chromosomal mutation.

The Effect of Dicloxacillin Administration on Pharmacokinetics of Narrow Therapeutic Window Drugs: Phenytoin and Warfarin

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Dicloxacillin is a penicillinase‐resistant beta‐lactam antibiotic and potent activator of the Pregnane X receptor (PXR), known to induce CYP2C9, CYP2C19, and CYP3A4 activity. Clinical data suggest it reduces anticoagulation in warfarin‐treated patients and increases the risk of thromboembolic events.

Prevalence, Risk Factors, and Treatment Outcomes of Isoniazid- and Rifampicin-Mono-Resistant Pulmonary Tuberculosis in Lima, Peru. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2016
BACKGROUND:Isoniazid and rifampicin are the two most efficacious first-line agents for tuberculosis (TB) treatment. We assessed the prevalence of isoniazid and rifampicin mono-resistance, associated risk factors, and the association of mono-resistance on

Integrated assessment of rifampicin‐mediated induction of transporters and drug‐metabolizing enzymes in a long‐term human liver tissue chip system

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Rifampicin is a prototypical clinical inducer used in drug–drug interaction (DDI) studies. However, the clinical relevance and predictability of rifampicin‐mediated hepatic transporter induction remain poorly defined. Conventional hepatocyte culture models fail to capture clinically relevant regulation of transporters and drug‐metabolizing enzymes ...

Constrained RNA polymerase mutational pathways distinguish corallopyronin A resistance from rifampicin resistance in staphylococci

Scientific Reports
Corallopyronin A (CorA) is a natural RNA polymerase (RNAP) inhibitor active against Gram-positive pathogens, including Staphylococcus aureus. Although spontaneous resistance to CorA occurs less frequently than to rifampicin, the genetic basis and ...

Challenges for interpreting results of antimicrobial susceptibility testing for treating infections of foals with Rhodococcus equi

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Rhodococcus equi is a facultative intracellular pathogen and a major cause of pneumonia in foals worldwide. The standard treatment for affected foals is a combination of a macrolide with rifampicin. The widespread use of this combination has led to the emergence of multidrug‐resistant (MDR) strains of R. equi.

Human biomarker navigator

iMeta, EarlyView.
The Human Biomarker Navigator integrates the disease continuum, biomarker dynamics, cross‐organ biomarker networks, biomarker classification, and technology‐driven paradigms. It maps how biomarkers link multi‐system physiology and pathology across the nervous, respiratory, endocrine, circulatory, immune, digestive, urinary, reproductive, and ...
