PMID: 26719750
Clin Proteomics. 2015 Dec 30;12:29. doi: 10.1186/s12014-015-9100-y. eCollection 2015.

BACKGROUND: The carbohydrate portions of salivary glycoproteins play important roles, including mediating bacterial and leukocyte adhesion. Salivary glycosylation is complex. Many of its glycoproteins present ABO and Lewis blood group determinants. An individual's genetic complement and secretor status govern...

Detection of glycopeptide resistance genes in enterococci by multiplex PCR.

Medical journal, Armed Forces India

Bhatt P, Sahni AK, Praharaj AK, Grover N, Kumar M, Chaudhari CN, Khajuria A.
PMID: 25609863
Med J Armed Forces India. 2015 Jan;71(1):43-7. doi: 10.1016/j.mjafi.2014.03.005. Epub 2014 Jun 07.

BACKGROUND: Vancomycin Resistant Enterococci (VRE) are a major cause of nosocomial infections. There are various phenotypic and genotypic methods of detection of glycopeptide resistance in enterococci. This study utilizes multiplex PCR for reliable detection of various glycopeptides resistance genes...

Aminoglycoside-Induced Cochleotoxicity: A Review.

Frontiers in cellular neuroscience

Jiang M, Karasawa T, Steyger PS.
PMID: 29062271
Front Cell Neurosci. 2017 Oct 09;11:308. doi: 10.3389/fncel.2017.00308. eCollection 2017.

Aminoglycoside antibiotics are used as prophylaxis, or urgent treatment, for many life-threatening bacterial infections, including tuberculosis, sepsis, respiratory infections in cystic fibrosis, complex urinary tract infections and endocarditis. Although aminoglycosides are clinically-essential antibiotics, the mechanisms underlying their selective toxicity...

The empirical combination of both a beta-lactam and glycopeptide to counter potential staphylococcal pathogens may improve the clinical outcomes for cases of

Evidence-based medicine: An update on treatments for peritoneal dialysis-related peritonitis.

World journal of nephrology

Barretti P, Doles JV, Pinotti DG, El Dib RP.
PMID: 25949943
World J Nephrol. 2015 May 06;4(2):287-94. doi: 10.5527/wjn.v4.i2.287.

Peritonitis continues to be a major complication of peritoneal dialysis (PD), and adequate treatment is crucial for a favorable outcome. There is no consensus regarding the optimal therapeutic regimen, and few prospective controlled studies have been published. The objective...

Glycoprotein conformation in plant cell walls : Circular dichroism reveals a polyproline II structure.

Planta

Homer RB, Roberts K.
PMID: 24318062
Planta. 1979 Jan;146(2):217-22. doi: 10.1007/BF00388235.

The major structural glycoprotein of the cell wall of Chlamydomonas reinhardii has a protein core, at least 50% of which is in the unusual polyproline II conformation. This has been demonstrated by examining the circular dichroism of the cell...

Staphylococcus aureus bacteremias following liver transplantation: a clinical analysis of 20 cases.

Therapeutics and clinical risk management

Zhou J, Huang H, Liu S, Yu P, Wan Q.

Changes in glycoprotein expression between primary breast tumour and synchronous lymph node metastases or asynchronous distant metastases.

Clinical proteomics

Kurbasic E, Sjöström M, Krogh M, Folkesson E, Grabau D, Hansson K, Rydén L, Waldemarson S, James P, Niméus E.

BACKGROUND: Breast cancer is a very heterogeneous disease and some patients are cured by the surgical removal of the primary tumour whilst other patients suffer from metastasis and spreading of the disease, despite adjuvant therapy. A number of prognostic...

Lipid- and sugar-modified endomorphins: novel targets for the treatment of neuropathic pain.

Frontiers in pharmacology

Varamini P, Toth I.
PMID: 24379782
