BACKGROUND
Doripenem monohydrate, a broad-spectrum carbapenem antibiotic, has been approved by the US Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of complicated intra-abdominal infections (cIAIs) and complicated urinary tract infections (cUTIs).
OBJECTIVE
This article reviews available
BACKGROUND
Cefdinir is an advanced-generation, broad-spectrum cephalosporin antimicrobial agent that has been approved for the treatment of community-acquired pneumonia, acute bacterial exacerbations of chronic bronchitis, acute maxillary sinusitis, pharyngitis/tonsillitis, acute bacterial otitis
Prulifloxacin, the lipophilic prodrug of ulifloxacin, is a new oral fluoroquinolone with a broad spectrum of in vitro activity against various Gram-positive and Gram-negative microorganisms. Currently, it is the most potent in vitro fluoroquinolone against Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas
The viruses in the Flaviviridae family have been associated with human and animal diseases. In this report, we demonstrate that compound 2-amino-8-(beta-D-ribofuranosyl) imidazo [1,2-a]-s-triazine-4-one (ZX-2401) was capable of inhibiting the production in culture of at least five members of the
We evaluated various clinical and laboratory manifestations of toxic shock syndrome (TSS) in 17 menstruating females to define the spectrum of illness. Ten women had definite TSS, while seven who satisfied modified case definition criteria had probable TSS. Patients with definite TSS were younger,
N-Linked oligosaccharides play many roles in the fate and functions of glycoproteins. One function is to assist in the folding of proteins by mediating interactions of the lectin-like chaperone proteins calnexin and calreticulin with nascent glycoproteins. These interactions can be prevented by
We used a whole-genome microarray screening system (Affymetrix human GeneChips covering 47,000 different transcripts) to examine the gene expression in duodenal mucosa during acute cholera. Biopsies were taken from the duodenal mucosa of seven cholera patients 2 and 30 days after the onset of
Diarrhoeal disease kills about 1.5 million human beings per year across the continents. The enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) pathotype has been noted as a major cause of diarrheal disease in human and livestock. The aim of this study is to identify broad-spectrum molecular targets in
OBJECTIVE
This study aimed to evaluate the clinical significance of toxin positivity and toxin gene load, and the relation between them in the broad spectrum of Clostridium difficile infection (CDI) including colonization, significant diarrhea, and severe disease.
METHODS
We included 2671 fecal
OBJECTIVE
To describe the spectrum of illnesses associated with Escherichia coli O157:H7 infections.
METHODS
Described an outbreak that showed the broad spectrum of these infections. Reviewed the clinical findings in the other eight major outbreaks reported between 1982 and 1986. Also reviewed
A robust database shows that dietary supplements of vitamins E and C are safe for the general population. Because these nutrients supply antioxidant and other functions for homeostasis and protection against free radical damage, supplementation has been intensively studied. Because of perceived
To complement traditional antivirals, natural compounds that act via host targets and present high barriers to resistance are of increasing interest. In the work reported here, we detected that homoharringtonine (HHT) presents effective antiviral activity. HHT completely inhibited infections of
Viral gastroenteritis is an important cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide, being particularly severe for children under the age of five. The most common viral agents of gastroenteritis are noroviruses, rotaviruses, sapoviruses, astroviruses and adenoviruses, however, no specific antiviral
Ceftiofur sodium, a broad-spectrum beta-lactamase-resistant cephalosporin, was evaluated in vitro and in vivo in mice. Ceftiofur is the sodium salt of (6R, 7R)-7[( 2-amino-4-thiazolyl)-Z- (methoxyimino)acetyl]amino)-3-[( (2-furanylcarbonyl)thio]methyl)-8-oxo-5-
