Journal ArticleDOI

Selective induction of antimicrobial peptides from keratinocytes by staphylococcal bacteria

TL;DR: The secreted products of S. aureus and S. epidermidis differentially induced subtypes of hBD through different receptors, which may be associated with the difference in virulence between these two bacteria.
Journal ArticleDOI

Suitability of carbapenem inactivation method (CIM) for detection of imp metallo-β-lactamase-producing enterobacteriaceae

TL;DR: The majority of CRE isolates are carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (CPE) strains, and there is concern over the control of hospital infections and antimicrobial therapies.
Journal ArticleDOI

Roxithromycin Favorably Modifies the Initial Phase of Resistance against Infection with Macrolide-Resistant Streptococcus pneumoniae in a Murine Pneumonia Model

TL;DR: The modification by roxithromycin of airway inflammatory responses, including those of matrix metalloproteinase-7 and phagocytes, is beneficial for initial resistance to macrolide-resistant pneumococci.
Journal ArticleDOI

Spectrophotometric photodynamic detection involving extracorporeal treatment with hexaminolevulinate for bladder cancer cells in voided urine

TL;DR: Spectrophotometric photodynamic detection involving extracorporeal treatment with HAL for bladder cancer cells in voided urine showed high accuracy, is easy and cost-effective, and has the potential for clinical use.
Journal ArticleDOI

Evaluation of the vitek 2 AST-N269 card for detection of meropenem resistance in imipenem-susceptible meropenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae.

TL;DR: It is reported that the Vitek 2 AST-N124 card was unreliable for the detection of ISMR Klebsiella pneumoniae because of falsely low meropenem MICs.
