    Cytochrome P450 2A6 (CYP2A6) is an enzyme involved in the metabolism of some tobacco carcinogens, which is an important risk factor of lung cancer. Among CYP2A6 allelic variants, CYP2A6*4 presents a whole gene deletion that accounts for the majority of poor metabolizer. In this study...

    The role of IL-15 in the protection against Leishmania (L) parasites has been clarified in previous studies, in which IL-15 similar to IFN-γ induces IL-12 production and stimulates the leishmaniacidal activity of the macrophages infected with L. infantum. Furthermore, the increased...
  3. Analysis of the tolerance of pathogenic enterococci and Staphylococcus aureus to cell wall active antibiotics.

    J Antimicrob Chemother (2013) PMID 23649229

    We demonstrated that the dependence on SOD of tolerance to vancomycin and penicillin is a common trait of antibiotic-susceptible pathogenic enterococci. By varying the levels of expression we could also show that tolerance to vancomycin is directly correlated to SOD activity. Interestingly, deletion...
