This is especially true for neutropenic patients with septic shock. As there is a higher incidence of involving multi-drug resistant pathogens for neutropenic patients, the decision on antibiotics regime remains a challenge for physicians.2 Immunosuppression and previous antibacterial use are factors that promote the spread of multi-drug resistant pathogens, and the possibility of co-existing multi-drug resistant pathogens should be suspected when treating patients with these risk factors who developed refractory shock. Here we present a case with neutropenic fever and refractory shock whose blood culture yielded multi-drug resistant Acinetobacter baumannii and carbapenem- resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae.展开更多
Human antisense GST-πRNA was transferred into adriamycine-treatedadenocarcinoma cell of lung. The over-expression of GST-πgene wasinhibited and the total GST activity towards CDNB, the test substrate, wasdecreased. ...Human antisense GST-πRNA was transferred into adriamycine-treatedadenocarcinoma cell of lung. The over-expression of GST-πgene wasinhibited and the total GST activity towards CDNB, the test substrate, wasdecreased. Transfected cells showed elevated sensitivity to adriamycine ascompared with un-transfected cells. The results suggest that GST-π plays arole in drug resistance of human adenocarcinoma of lung, and inhibition ofGST eazymes might partially restore the sensitivity of cancer tochemotherapy.展开更多
