Case series: Kikuchi‐Fujimoto disease with diagnostic overlap
Rheumatology &Autoimmunity, EarlyView.Kikuchi‐Fujimoto disease (KFD) is a rare, self‐limiting necrotizing lymphadenitis that poses significant diagnostic challenges due to its overlap with tuberculosis, systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), and malignancy. We present four cases highlighting distinct diagnostic complexities: KFD mimicking tuberculosis with concomitant latent TB infection and ...

Influence of Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms on Rifampin Pharmacokinetics in Tuberculosis Patients
Antibiotics, 2020 Rifampin (RF) is metabolized in the liver into an active metabolite 25-desacetylrifampin and excreted almost equally via biliary and renal routes. Various influx and efflux transporters influence RF disposition during hepatic uptake and biliary excretion.

Mechanistic insights into HapC: A key enzyme in prodiginine biosynthesis in Hahella chejuensis
The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.HapC catalyzes prodiginine biosynthesis through coordinated movements of its ATP‐binding, substrate‐binding, and catalytic‐swivel domains. The enzyme shows tolerance toward short‐chain MAP analogs, and docking analyses reveal key residues and structural features underlying its substrate flexibility.

Unpredictable Effects of Rifampin as an Adjunctive Agent in Elimination of Rifampin-Susceptible and -Resistant Staphylococcus aureus Strains Grown in Biofilms [PDF]
, 2010 The use of rifampin as an adjunct in biofilm-associated infections is based on the ability to penetrate into biofilms and a presumed activity against dormant bacteria.
