✅ showing that you care

This is how you can reduce your risk of getting it ⬇️

Today, December 1, is the World AIDS Day. The theme of World AIDS Day 2021 is “End inequalities. End AIDS”.

Microbiology Monday: Phenotypic variants of bacteria are often found in routine diagnostics. While it’s been debated whether all phenotypic variants should be tested for antimicrobial susceptibility, microbiologists recently found that only one isolate per phenotypic variant could be tested to guide antimicrobial treatment of patients. In this study, they examined all phenotypic variants from routine diagnostics from the University Hospital Münster, Germany for a year and quantified the proportion of variants that had different antimicrobial susceptibility patterns. They also identified species and antimicrobial compounds that were most affected.

Antifongiques

Microbiology Monday: There’s currently five classes of antifungals, with four targeting ergosterol synthesis and cell wall glucans. With the rise of drug resistance, poor oral bioavailability, and narrow therapeutic indices, the development of new antifungals can overcome these challenges of current antifungals. This review in Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy highlights the compounds aimed at new molecular targets and pathways.

This graphic shows the possible targets for new antifungals including the mitochondrial respiratory chain complexes,metabolism-related enzymes, the calcineurin pathway, the sphingolipid pathway, and more.
