  • Resistance to the adamantane class of antiviral drugs by human A/H3N2 influenza viruses currently exceeds 90% in the United States and multiple Asian countries. (jcvi.org)
  • In order to better understand the molecular mechanisms responsible for the dermal toxicity of chromium , differential gene expression profiles of human skin fibroblasts exposed to a cytotoxic concentration of hexavalent potassium dichromate [Cr(VI)] were studied. (cdc.gov)
  • Skin fibroblasts were exposed to 5 uM Cr(VI) for time intervals up to 24- hr and their differential gene expression profile was studied using the Toxicology and Drug Resistance Microarray (Super Array Inc.). Of the 280 genes represented on the array, the expression levels of 32 genes were found to be differentially affected in the fibroblasts exposed to Cr(VI). (cdc.gov)
  • Even though developed for AML patients, our pan-cancer analyses demonstrate a wider application of the IPRP signature for prognostic prediction and analysis of tumor-immune interplay also in multiple solid tumors. (nature.com)
  • If the NRTI abacavir (ABC) is considered as part of treatment, HLA-B*5701 must be obtained and ABC only prescribed if the patient is negative for this haplotype, as persons who are positive are at risk for a potentially serious hypersensitivity reaction to the drug. (medscape.com)
  • The two main types of resistance, primary and induced, differ mostly in causation, with the biggest cause of resistance being a lack of adherence to the specific details of treatment. (wikipedia.org)
  • A blood test can be done to determine which drugs may be effective prior to initiation of treatment or during treatment to ensure resistance has not developed. (wikipedia.org)
  • An individual infected by a resistant strain begins their course of treatment with already limited drug options, which can pose problems later down the line if they develop additional resistance. (wikipedia.org)
  • This report outlines features of the disease that are important for control and describes activities in the areas of screening, diagnosis, treatment and the search for better drugs. (who.int)
  • Immunohistochemical analysis with this novel MAb of pre and post treatment tumours however, did not reveal any apparent association with resistance for the antigen recognised by antibody 5C3. (dcu.ie)
  • This is due to many TB patients - previously on treatment - not taking their drugs anymore. (swisstph.ch)
  • This phenomenon is known as drug tolerance and explains why the treatment for TB takes many months, sometimes even years . (swisstph.ch)
  • Previous treatment history was probably not a risk factor because of the use of multiple drug regimes, directly observed therapy, and the high completion rates in those previously treated. (edu.au)
  • Reserve concomitant prescribing of these drugs in patients for whom other treatment options are inadequate. (medscape.com)
  • In resolution WHA56.7, on the Pan African tsetse and trypanosomiasis eradication campaign, the Health Assembly called attention to the severe health problems caused by human African trypanosomiasis and the significant impairment of socioeconomic development that has followed the resurgence of the disease in both human beings and livestock. (who.int)
  • Five species account for almost all human infections, with P falciparum being the most severe. (who.int)
  • This paper reviews the research progress of microsphere-based scaffolds in bone/chondral tissue engineering, briefly introduces types of microspheres made from polymer, inorganic and composite materials, discusses the preparation methods of microspheres and the exploration of suitable microsphere pore size in bone and cartilage tissue engineering, and finally details the application of microsphere-based scaffolds in biomimetic scaffolds, cell proliferation and drug delivery systems. (bvsalud.org)
  • It is the predominant facultative anaerobe (in the normal intestine of both humans and many warm-blooded animals), playing a major role as normal microflora. (vin.com)
  • Therefore, development of resistance to one medication in a class precludes the use of all other medications in the same class. (wikipedia.org)
  • The gastrointestinal environment is conducive to development of resistance. (vin.com)
  • 2. Molecular epidemiology of HCV among injection drug users in Iran by phylogenetic analysis. (who.int)
  • 6‑O‑angeloylplenolin (6‑OAP) is a sesquiterpene lactone agent that has been previously demonstrated to inhibit the growth of multiple myeloma (MM) cells through mitotic arrest with accumulated cyclin B1. (spandidos-publications.com)
  • Dr. Alice Shaw's research aims to provide viable treatments for lung cancer patients whose tumors have become resistant to their current drug therapy. (nfcr.org)
  • They focused on compounds that would be effective against multiple life stages of P. falciparum , and found three clusters that attacked the parasite in similar ways to drugs currently in use. (popsci.com)
  • Overall, the frequency of the P. falciparum CQ resistance marker has decreased significantly and no resistance marker to AQ was detected in the DRC in 2017. (biomedcentral.com)
