A literature review was undertaken to ascertain the molecular basis for tigecycline and colistin resistance mechanisms and the experimental basis for the detection and delineation of this resistance particularly in carbapenemase‐producing Gram‐negative bacteria. Pubmed, Google Scholar and Science Direct were searched with the keywords colistin, tigecycline, resistance mechanisms and detection methods. Trans‐complementation and comparative MIC studies, mass spectrometry, chromatography, spectrofluorometry, PCR, qRT‐PCR and whole genome sequencing (WGS) were commonly used to determine tigecycline and colistin resistance mechanisms, specifically modifications in the structural and regulatory efflux (acrAB, OqxAB, kpgABC adeABC‐FGH‐IJK, mexAB‐XY‐oprJM and soxS, rarA robA, ramRAB marRABC, adeLRS, mexRZ and nfxb) and lipid A (pmrHFIJFKLM, lpxA, lpxC lpxD and mgrB, pmrAB, phoPQ,) genes respectively. Mutations in the ribosomal 16S rRNA operon rrnBC, also yielded resistance to tigecycline through target site modifications. The mcr‐1 gene conferring resistance to colistin was identified via WGS, trans‐complementation and a murine thigh infection model studies. Common detection methods are mainly antibiotic sensitivity testing with broth microdilution while molecular identification tools are mostly PCR and WGS. Spectrofluorometry, MALDI‐TOF MS, micro‐array and real‐time multiplex PCR hold much promise for the future as new detection tools. 相似文献

American bollworm (ABW), Helicoverpa armigera (Hubner), is considered as a major pest of cotton, Gossypium hirsutum, all over the globe. Due to its destructive feeding nature and continuous consumption of the same chemicals, it devolved resistant against many insecticides. Therefore, a combined application of bio- and synthetic-pesticide need to evaluate against this pest. The entomopathogenic viruses like nuclear polyhedrosis virus (NPV), a member of baculoviruses, can be the potential candidates for better control against ABW. The present study was conducted to assess the comparative efficacy of NPV and Spinosad 240SC (with the concentration of 250 mL · ha ̄?) against ABW in the controlled environment. The ABW was treated with different concentrations of NPV and Spinosad separately and in a combination of NPV with 0.1% Spinosad. The results revealed that highest concentrations showed highest mortality (95%) followed by 95%, 92%, 84%, 82% and 78% mortality at 1 × 109, 1 × 108, 1 × 107, 1 × 106 and 1 × 105 POBs, respectively. Spinosad when mixed in diet give 100% mortality at 0.8% followed by 50.87%, 42.10%, 29.82%, 26.31% and 22.80% mortality at 0.4%, 0.2%, 0.1%, 0.5% and 0.025% respectively. The results of this study revealed that microbial control of ABW through NPV is an effective tool. The repeated use of synthetic pesticides caused the resurgence of many insect pests, and this study results would provide useful insight to build a framework for future investigations for the management of many major insect pests. 相似文献

Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) is one of the major molecular targets for cancer diagnosis and therapy. EGFR and EGFRvIII, mutated form of EGFR, have been identified as participating in pathogenesis of some forms of human cancers. Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) targeting EGFR/EGFRvIII have been shown to suppress the signal transduction pathways controlling tumor cell growth, proliferation, and apoptosis. Until now, different types of mAbs or antibody fragments against EGFR family have been established. Some of these antibodies have been used clinically for treating various forms of human malignancies. More recently, a single domain antibody (sdAb) targeting this family of receptors has been introduced. The heavy chain antibodies (HCAbs) that made up variable regions of heavy chain, CH2, and CH3 domains are shown in camelids. SdAbs derived from camel HCAbs are the smallest known natural building parts for binding to antigen. They also possess a longer antigen recognizing region, which increases their capability for being more specific in target antigen enhancement. Camelid antibodies are highly valuable for their special characteristics, including heat resistance, small size, high solubility in an aqueous environment, and non-immunogenicity in a human environment. Due to these abilities, research on biotechnological production and treatment applications of recombinant smaller fragments of these only HCAbs is widely in progress. In this article, we will discuss the challenges and successes of different types of mAbs targeting EGFR/EGFRvIII in human cancer. 相似文献

Differential sensitivity for the release of PCR-detectable genomic DNA upon boiling in water is reported for 45 Campylobacter jejuni and Campylobacter coli strains isolated in Egypt. All of the strains released PCR-detectable DNA when treated with proteinase K and sodium dodecyl sulfate. When DNA was extracted from these strains by boiling in water, nine (20%) of the strains were PCR negative or resistant to boiling, suggesting the presence of boiling-sensitive and boiling-resistant phenotypes. 相似文献

Seeds play essential roles in plant life cycle and germination is a complex process which is associated with different phases of water imbibition. Upon imbibition, seeds begin utilization of storage substances coupled with metabolic activity and biosynthesis of new proteins. Regeneration of organelles and emergence of radicals lead to the establishment of seedlings. All these activities are regulated in coordinated manners. Translation is the requirement of germination of seeds via involvements of several proteins like beta-amylase, starch phosphorylase. Some important proteins involved in seed germination are discussed in this review. In the past decade, several proteomic studies regarding seed germination of various species such as rice, Arabidopsis have been conducted. We face A paucity of proteomic data with respect to woody plants e.g. Fagus, Pheonix etc. With particular reference to Cyclobalnopsis gilva, a woody plant having low seed germination rate, no proteomic studies have been conducted. The review aims to reveal the complex seed germination mechanisms from woody and herbaceous plants that will help in understanding different seed germination phases and the involved proteins in C. gilva. 相似文献

The minimal antibiotic options for carbapenemase‐producing Gram‐negative bacteria necessitate their rapid detection. A literature review of a variety of phenotypic and genotypic methods is presented. Advances in culture methods and screening media are still subject to long incubation hours. Biochemical methods have shorter turnaround times and higher sensitivities and specificities, but cannot differentiate between various types and variants. Spectrophotometric methods are cheap and efficient, but are uncommon in many clinical settings, while the MALDI‐TOF MS is promising for species identification, typing and resistance gene determination. Although next generation sequencing (NGS) technologies provide a better platform to detect, type and characterize carbapenem‐resistant bacteria, the different NGS platforms, the large computer memories and space needed to process and store genomic data and the nonuniformity in data analysis platforms are still a challenge. The sensitivities, specificities and turnaround times recorded in the various studies reviewed favours the use of the biochemical tests (Carba NP or Rapid Carb screen tests) for the detection of putative carbapenemase‐producing isolates. MALDI‐TOF MS and/or molecular methods like microarray, loop‐mediated isothermal amplification and real‐time multiplex PCR assays could be used for further characterization in a reference laboratory. NGS may be used for advanced epidemiological and molecular studies. 相似文献
