This study aims to investigate the neuroprotective effects of Pyrola incarnata against β-amyloid-induced memory impairment in mice. Ethanol extract of Pyrola incarnata (EPI) was obtained and led to eleven phytochemicals successfully by isolation and purification, which were elucidated by spectroscopic analysis (H NMR, C NMR and HR-ESI-MS). Thereinto, ursolic acid was gained as most abundant monomer.

Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to better understand macrolide susceptibility and resistance mechanisms in non-tuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) in China for improved infection treatment.
  • Testing involved 310 clinical NTM isolates with four macrolides, revealing varied resistance patterns, particularly showing M. abscessus subsp. massiliense was mostly susceptible while M. fortuitum was highly resistant.
  • Key resistance mutations were identified, but known mechanisms (23S rRNA and erm) did not explain all resistance cases, suggesting further research is needed to uncover additional resistance factors in different NTM species.
