Novel mechanisms underlying drug resistance in temporal lobe epilepsy.
Drug resistance is a feature of different forms of epilepsy or epileptic syndromes. It is defined as the persistence of unacceptable seizures despite reasonable pharmacotherapy and drug use to the highest tolerable dosage. It affects between 20% and 30% of patients with epilepsy overall (1). In subgroups of epilepsy patients, a particularly high incidence of drug resistance is encountered (e.g....
متن کاملDrug resistance in epilepsy: expression of drug resistance proteins in common causes of refractory epilepsy.
Epilepsy is resistant to drug treatment in about one-third of cases, but the mechanisms underlying this drug resistance are not understood. In cancer, drug resistance has been studied extensively. Amongst the various resistance mechanisms, overexpression of drug resistance proteins, such as multi-drug resistance gene-1 P-glycoprotein (MDR1) and multidrug resistance-associated protein 1 (MRP1), ...
متن کاملMechanisms of Drug Resistance
Progress of research into the problem of resistance to antibiotics is held back by lack of knowledge of the biochemical mechanisms by which these drugs act. Fortunately, it is possible to study some of the mechanisms of drug resistance, even at a biophysical or biochemical level, without necessarily knowing very much about how the drug works—just as it is possible to study (at least at a biolog...
متن کاملAntifungal drug resistance of yeasts in dermatology: mechanisms, epidemiology and clinical impact
Superficial dermatophytoses are among the most common infectious disease. The most commonly used antifungal categories reazoles, polyenes and echinocandins. Due to the limited number of available antifungal drugs, toxicity and the emergence of resistant (intrinsic or acquired) strains, antifungal strategy needs to be developed. Recently the researchers try to find alternative antifungal agents....

عفونت و تهاجم ارگانیسم های انگلی به بدن، عامل اصلی بیماری و مرگ انسانها از آغاز بشریت بوده است . در حقیقت بسیاری از اشکال حیات بدون غلبه بر ارگانیسم های زنده دیگر، قادر به ادامه زندگی نخواهند بود. انسانها معمولا مستعد تهاجم ارگانیسم های کوچکتری مانند کرمها، آمیب ها، قارچها، باکتریها و ویروسها هستند. این عوامل مکان خاصی را در بدن انتخاب کرده، مواد ضروری لازم برای حیات و تکثیر خود را دریافت نموده...
