We have recently provided data suggesting a potential role for mitochondria and Bcl-2-family molecules in apoptosis sensitivity of HIV-specific CD8+ T cells. Here, we report on the role of filamentous (F) actin in this process. Disruption of actin by

Although the production of extended-spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBLs) by Klebsiella pneumoniae and Escherichia coli is an emerging problem, limited data are available regarding the frequency of ESBL production in other organisms. We provide the only d

The activity of RP 59500 (quinupristin/dalfopristin) was evaluated in vitro against antibiotic-resistant strains of Streptococcus pneumoniae (N = 15) and Enterococcus spp. (N = 43). By broth dilution MIC tests RP 59500 was highly active against penic

Cefepime is a broad-spectrum cephalosporin that is reported to have enhanced activity against ceftazidime-resistant Gram-negative bacilli. In this study the effects of varying inoculum size on in-vitro susceptibility to cefepime and other selected an

The antimicrobial activities of two synthetic magainins, MSI 94 and MSI 93, were investigated in vitro against 20 clinical isolates each of Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Enterococcus faecium. The ranges of the MICs of both agents were 6.25-50 mg/L for P

OBJECTIVE: To determine whether treatment of asymptomatic bacteriuria in older ambulatory women affects the subsequent development of symptoms of urinary tract infection. DESIGN: A controlled clinical trial. PARTICIPANTS: Older women not having urina
Vancomycin-resistant enterococci have become important nosocomial pathogens in many institutions. The gastrointestinal tract of susceptible hosts serves as the likely reservoir from which the organism is disseminated. To study factors promoting colon

We compared ciprofloxacin, rifampin, and gentamicin treatments, alone and in combination, for 5 days in the therapy of experimental aortic valve endocarditis in rats caused by a clinical isolate of vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium. The MICs
Ramoplanin, a new lipoglycodepsipeptide antibiotic, was uniformly active against 65 strains of enterococci, including strains highly resistant to vancomycin, penicillin G, and gentamicin. MBCs were usually within a fourfold dilution of the MICs. In t
