متن کاملGut Microbiota-Mediated Drug-Antibiotic Interactions.
Xenobiotic metabolism involves the biochemical modification of drugs and phytochemicals in living organisms, including humans and other animals. In the intestine, the gut microbiota catalyzes the conversion of hydrophilic drugs into absorbable, hydrophobic compounds through hydroxyzation and reduction. Drugs and phytochemicals are transformed into bioactive (sulfasalazine, lovastatin, and ginse...
متن کاملEditorial response: Predicting protection against encapsulated pathogens.
Patients with selective immune defects have provided vivid evidence of the specific host factors that mediate defense against the pneumococcus. Rates of invasive pneumococcal infections may be increased among patients with deficiencies of complement components (involving either the classical or alternative pathway) [1–3], decreased phagocyte number and function (including neutropenia, asplenia,...
متن کاملA potent synthetic inorganic antibiotic with activity against drug-resistant pathogens
The acronymously named "ESKAPE" pathogens represent a group of bacteria that continue to pose a serious threat to human health, not only due to their propensity for repeated emergence, but also due to their ability to "eskape" antibiotic treatment. The evolution of multi-drug resistance in these pathogens alone has greatly outpaced the development of new therapeutics, necessitating an alternati...
متن کاملCysteamine-mediated clearance of antibiotic-resistant pathogens in human cystic fibrosis macrophages
Members of the Burkholderia cepacia complex are virulent, multi-drug resistant pathogens that survive and replicate intracellularly in patients with cystic fibrosis (CF). We have discovered that B. cenocepacia cannot be cleared from CF macrophages due to defective autophagy, causing continued systemic inflammation and infection. Defective autophagy in CF is mediated through constitutive reactiv...
