Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBiochemical and Genetic Responses of Fungi to the Toxic Effect of Synthetic and Natural FungicidesMarÍa-Elena Báez-Flores, Rosalba Troncoso-Rojas, Martin-Ernesto Tiznado-HernándezThe objective of the present review is to analyze the molecular basis of fungicide resistance mechanism to both synthetic fungicides and the natural fungicides isothiocyanates. The review is focused mainly on Alternaria sp., but whenever available, similar studies in other fungi have been included. Fungal resistant strains to dicarboximide and phenylpyrrole fungicides have been found to contain mutations in one … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 8,122 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAntimicrobial Dressing for Diabetic Foot Ulcer Colonized with MRSAParthasarathy Ravichandran, Sai Prasad ChittiWound healing in patients with diabetic foot ulcer differs among people. The wound healing process was influenced by factors like nature of the wound, tissue and an immunity of a person. Any measure taken to control bacterial colonies in wound plays a significant role in wound healing. However, recent emergence of Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus Aureus (MRSA) associated with chronic wounds created … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 4 · 17 Nov 2015 · 7,563 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAntibacterial and Anti-Quorum Sensing Activities of Selected Italian Honeys against Antibiotic-Resistant PathogensMarco Fidaleo, Roberto Lavecchia, Antonio ZuorroThree nectar honeys (eucalyptus, thyme and forest) and two honeydew honeys (fir and Metcalfa) from Italy were tested for their antibacterial activity against pathogens commonly associated with wound and burn infections, including Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus (MRSA), methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus epidermidis (MRSE) and Vancomycin-Resistant Enterococcus Faecalis (VREF). All honeys showed bactericidal activity against the microorganisms used, with honeydew honeys being the most … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 4 · 27 Oct 2015 · 7,052 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Mathematical Modeling Approach to Characterize Hormesis, Caloric Restriction and Toxicity in Mortality Data from Toxicity StudiesPatricia J. NeafseyThe mortality of a population reflects the combined effects of natural aging with environmental insults (e.g. toxicant exposure, caloric restriction, over feeding, infections, etc.). No single endpoint, such as carcinogenesis, completely describes toxicant-induced effects in laboratory animals. Mathematical models of mortality and time-dependent exposure to toxicants can yield indices of net injury from all causes. With careful manipulation of diet … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 7,163 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordMonocytes and their Role in Human Immunodeficiency Virus PathogenesisTara Sassé, Jingqin Wu, Li Zhou, Nitin K. SaksenaMonocytes play several significant immunological roles during HIV infection. The phenotypic pliability and the cellular differentiation ability monocytes possess are crucial to the ways they combat infections and control inflammatory processes. The purpose of this review is to provide a comprehensive snapshot of the importance of monocytes in HIV-1 infection and pathogenesis. Moreover, this review also provides newly emerging data … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 31 Jul 2012 · 8,021 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordComparative Evaluation of Synergistic Antibacterial Effects in Blended Essential Oil against Gram-Positive and Gram-Negative PathogensMin-Gi Kwon, Jae Kyung KimThe rising emergence of multidrug-resistant bacteria has heightened the search for novel antibiotic agents. Essential Oils (EOs) are complex combinations of volatile organic compounds generated by plants, with many exhibiting significant antimicrobial properties. This study evaluates the antibacterial movement of single and blended EOs against representative gram-positive bacteria Staphylococcus aureus and Methicillin-Resistant S. aureus (MRSA) and gram-negative bacteria Escherichia coli … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 21, Issue 2 · 7 Jul 2025 · 5,485 accessesView PDFCite
Case ReportOpen accessAll words, across the recordBrief Report: 20-Year Follow-Up of an Infant with Neurological Impairment Born to a Mother with Variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob DiseaseJustin Penner, Anjali Rampersad, James E. Burns et al.A term infant born via uncomplicated caesarian section was noted to be jittery, hypotonic, and have pooling of secretions at birth. Over the first four weeks of life, the infant developed four limb hypertonia, hyperreflexia, and clonus. MRI at 3.5 weeks old showed brain immaturity, poor myelination, and increased signal in the dorsal thalami. At six months, dystonic features with … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 21, Issue 1 · 7 Mar 2025 · 7,666 accessesView PDFCite
