1. Towards surgical use of matrix metalloproteinase biology
Sammanfattning : Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), such as collagenases, are a family of enzymes capable of degrading most constituents of the extracellular matrix. MMPs are thought to be involved in the aetiopathogenesis of tendon rupture. Additionally, failure of healing has in some instances been associated with elevated levels of MMPs. LÄS MER
2. In vitro studies on anti-leukemic effects of tetracycline's analogues and cyclophosphamide
Sammanfattning : Leukemia is a heterogeneous group of hematological malignancies that originate from the bone marrow. Leukemias are classified as acute or chronic. Although acute leukemia affects patients of all ages, acute lymphoid leukemia is predominant in children and young adults while acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is predominant in the elderly. LÄS MER
3. Evolution and Mechanisms of Tigecycline Resistance in Escherichia coli
Sammanfattning : Antibiotic resistance is an ongoing global medical crisis and we are in great need of new antibacterial agents to combat rapidly emerging resistant pathogens. Tigecycline is one of few drugs that have been introduced into medicine during the last two decades. LÄS MER
4. New antibiotic resistance genes and their diversity
Sammanfattning : Antibiotic resistance is increasing worldwide and is considered a severe threat to public health. Often, antibiotic resistance is caused by antibiotic resistance genes, of which many are hypothesized to have been transferred into human pathogens from environmental bacteria. LÄS MER
5. Fluoroquinolone resistance in the environment and the human gut – Analysis of bacterial DNA sequences to explore the underlying genetic mechanisms
Sammanfattning : Fluoroquinolones (FQs) are synthetic, broad-spectrum antibiotics that target type II topoisomerases. High-level resistance is often caused by mutations in the target genes of FQs, especially in gyrA and parC. In contrast, plasmid-mediated resistance genes, such as qnr, often confer moderate levels of resistance. LÄS MER
