The regionally specific structure and function of the kidney renders it susceptible to toxic exposure. To characterize these changes at the proteome level, we have investigated the effects on protein expression following treatment with gentamicin. The more than 20 proteins identified were involved in the citric acid cycle, gluconeogenesis, fatty acid synthesis, and transport or cellular stress responses. These results strongly support the notion that energy production is impaired and mitochondrial dysfunction is involved in gentamicin-induced nephrotoxicity.

: is a leading cause of infective endocarditis (IE), which causes diverse clinical symptoms and even death. Recurrence after treatment is a crucial problem in IE, possibly caused by the presence of "persister" cells, a small bacterial population that can survive antimicrobials. In this study, the residual risk for penicillin G (PCG) and gentamicin (GM), used for treating IE, to induce persisters, was investigated.

Background: Initial antimicrobial therapy for pneumonia is frequently empirical and resistance to antimicrobial agents represents a great challenge to the treatment of patients hospitalized with pneumonia. We evaluated the frequency and antimicrobial susceptibility of Gram-negative bacteria causing pneumonia in US hospitals.
Methods: Bacterial isolates were consecutively collected (1/patient) from patients hospitalized with pneumonia and the susceptibility of Gram-negative bacilli (3,911 Enterobacterales and 2,753 non-fermenters) was evaluated by broth microdilution in a monitoring laboratory.
