TL;DR: This review presents a broad perspective on antibiotic stewardship in primary care in high and high-middle income country settings, focussing on studies published in the last five years, and presents the limitations of available literature.
Abstract: Antibiotic stewardship is a necessity given the worldwide antimicrobial resistance crisis. Outpatient antibiotic use represents around 90% of total antibiotic use, with more than half of these prescriptions being either unnecessary or inappropriate. Efforts to improve antibiotic prescribing need to incorporate two complementary strategies: changing healthcare professionals' behaviour, and modifying the healthcare system. In this review, we present a broad perspective on antibiotic stewardship in primary care in high and high-middle income country settings, focussing on studies published in the last five years. We present the limitations of available literature, discuss perspectives, and provide suggestions for where future work should be concentrated.

TL;DR: The acquisition of endo-β-N-acetylglucosaminidase H resistance and the preserved half-life of H60 in MCMV-infected cells indicate that the m155-mediated effect must take place in a compartment after H60 exits from the ERGIC-cis-Golgi compartment.
Abstract: Both human and mouse cytomegaloviruses (CMVs) encode proteins that inhibit the activation of NK cells by down-regulating cellular ligands for the activating NK cell receptor NKG2D. Up to now, three ligands for the NKG2D receptor, named RAE-1, H60, and MULT-1, have been identified in mice. The resistance of mouse strains to murine CMV (MCMV) infection is determined by their ability to generate an effective NK cell response. The MCMV gene m152, a member of the m145 gene family, down-regulates the expression of RAE-1 in order to avoid NK cell control in vivo. Here we report that the m155 gene, another member of the m145 gene family, encodes a protein that interferes with the expression of H60 on the surfaces of infected cells. Deletion of the m155 gene leads to an only partial restoration of H60 expression on the cell surface, suggesting the involvement of another, so far unknown, viral inhibitor. In spite of this, an m155 deletion mutant virus shows NK cell-dependent attenuation in vivo. The acquisition of endo-β-N-acetylglucosaminidase H resistance and the preserved half-life of H60 in MCMV-infected cells indicate that the m155-mediated effect must take place in a compartment after H60 exits from the ERGIC-cis-Golgi compartment.

TL;DR: Compounds 18 and 19 exerted the strongest non-specific antiproliferative effect on all cell lines and a concentration-dependent effect on HeLa and MCF-7 cell lines at micromolar concentrations but simultaneously being highly cytotoxic on human fibroblasts as well.

TL;DR: The results suggest the therapeutic effects of luteolin on CCl(4)-induced liver fibrosis by promoting extracellular matrix degradation in the fibrotic liver tissue and the strong enhancement of hepatic regenerative capability, with MTs as a critical mediator of liver regeneration.

TL;DR: Evidence is provided that a cell-based strategy to support the humoral immune response can be effective to combat infectious pathogens in severely immunodeficient hosts.
