Meropenem-RPX7009 Concentrations in Plasma, Epithelial Lining Fluid, and Alveolar Macrophages of Healthy Adult Subjects.
(American Society for Microbiology, 2015-12)The steady-state concentrations of meropenem and the β-lactamase inhibitor RPX7009 in plasma, epithelial lining fluid (ELF), and alveolar macrophage (AM) concentrations were obtained in 25 healthy, nonsmoking adult subjects. ... -
Microbiological Assessment of Polymyxin B Components Tested Alone and in Combination.
(American Society for Microbiology, 2015-12)We investigated the antimicrobial activity of four polymyxin B components, B1, B2, B3, and isoleucine (Ile)-B1, individually and in combination. B3 was the most active agent against all organisms tested except Acinetobacter ... -
Microfluidic devices to enrich and isolate circulating tumor cells.
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2015-12-21)Given the potential clinical impact of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) in blood as a clinical biomarker for the diagnosis and prognosis of various cancers, a myriad of detection methods for CTCs have been recently introduced. ... -
Minimal Prolongation of Prothrombin Time with Extended Exposure to Argatroban.
(Wiley, 2015-07)In the setting of acute heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT), argatroban is one of the initial anticoagulants of choice, which is eventually bridged to warfarin over a period of 5 or more days. Argatroban prolongs ... -
The miR-200 Family: Versatile Players in Epithelial Ovarian Cancer.
(MDPI, 2015-07-24)The role of microRNAs (miRNAs or miRs) in the pathology of epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) has been extensively studied. Many miRNAs differentially expressed in EOC as compared to normal controls have been identified, ... -
A multifunctional therapeutic approach to disease modification in multiple familial mouse models and a novel sporadic model of Alzheimer's disease.
(BioMed Central, 2016-04-29)BACKGROUND: Clinical failures singularly targeting amyloid-β pathology indicate a critical need for alternative Alzheimer's disease (AD) therapeutic strategies. The mixed pathology reported in a large population of AD ... -
Mutation of Rv2887, a marR-like gene, confers Mycobacterium tuberculosis resistance to an imidazopyridine-based agent.
(American Society for Microbiology, 2015-11)Drug resistance is a major problem in Mycobacterium tuberculosis control, and it is critical to identify novel drug targets and new antimycobacterial compounds. We have previously identified an imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine-4- ... -
