Macrolides: The Plug Is Out
Macrolide antibiotics are thought to clog up the ribosomal tunnel and thereby block general protein synthesis. By using a combination of elegant in vivo and in vitro approaches, Kannan et al. show that the inhibitory action of these drugs on bacterial protein synthesis is selective rather than global.
متن کاملCommercializing light-duty plug-in/plug-out hydrogen-fuel-cell vehicles: “Mobile Electricity” technologies and opportunities
Starting from the premise that new consumer value must drive hydrogen-fuel-cell-vehicle (H2FCV) commercialization, a group of opportunities ollectively called “Mobile Electricity” is characterized. Mobile Electricity (Me-) redefines H2FCVs as innovative products able to import and xport electricity across the traditional vehicle boundary. Such vehicles could provide home recharging and mobile p...

متن کاملMacrolides and community-acquired pneumonia: is quorum sensing the key?
Combination therapy with two antimicrobial agents is superior to monotherapy in severe community-acquired pneumonia, and recent data suggest that addition of a macrolide as the second antibiotic might be superior to other combinations. This observation requires confirmation in a randomised control trial, but this group of antibiotics have pleiotropic effects that extend beyond bacterial killing...
متن کاملMacrolides in dermatology
Erythromycin was the first macolide discovered in 1952. In 1990s new macrolides including clarithromycin, azithromycin, and dirithromycin were introduced to the market. We provide a review of their structure, pharmacokinetics, mechanisms of action, and indications in dermatology.
