Five children received nevirapine, a nonnucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor used as part of a triple-drug regimen to treat human immunodeficiency virus infection. They all developed resistance mutations to the agent within 4-10 months. They differed in compliance with drug therapy and development of specific mutations. Whether these mutations predict clinical resistance has yet to be determined.

Drought stress and lateral branches are both important factors affecting crop yield. Cucumber is a widely planted vegetable crop that requires a large amount of water during its production and varieties with few lateral branches are preferred. However, the mechanisms regulating cucumber drought tolerance and lateral branch development remain largely unclear.

Mutations in the KRAS gene in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) are common drivers. Gene expression and mutation data of NSCLC were collected from the TCGA dataset. DEGs between KRAS mutations and wild type were identified, and enrichment analysis was performed.

Introduction: The specificity of HIV-1 DNA genotypic resistance tests (GRTs) is hampered by the detection of the APOBEC-context drug resistance mutations (AC DRMs), usually harboured by replication-incompetent proviruses. We sought factors associated with defective sequences in the HIV-1 pol region. In addition, AC DRMs and their link with defective sequences were investigated.

Objectives: International guidelines recommend integrase strand-transfer inhibitor (INSTI)-based regimens as initial and switch therapy in people with HIV. As novel INSTIs become available, understanding how emergence of resistance at virological failures and seroconversions affects subsequent treatment options is needed. For the latest approved INSTI, cabotegravir, resistance patterns comprising Q148K/R, N155H, R263K, G118R, E138A/K and G140A/S (alone or in combination) have been documented in virological failures and seroconversions.

Background: Topical antiseptics are crucial for preventing infections and reducing transmission of pathogens. However, commonly used antiseptic agents have been reported to cause cross-resistance to other antimicrobials in bacteria, which has not yet been described in yeasts. This study aims to assess the in vitro efficacy of antiseptics against clinical and reference isolates of Candida albicans and Nakaseomyces glabratus, and whether prolonged exposure to antiseptics promotes the development of antifungal (cross)resistance.
