چکیده
Tetrahydrohomopteroate, which inhibits the growth of Streptococcus faecium (Streptococcus faecalis ATCC 8043), replaces folate as a growth factor in chlorguanide triazine-resistant strains of this organism.

Cytotoxic effects of folate antagonists against methotrexate-resistant human leukemic lymphoblast CCRF-CEM cell lines.
A human T-lymphoblast cell line, CCRF-CEM/R1, resistant to methotrexate by virtue of increased dihydrofolate reductase activity, was grown in stepwise increasing concentrations of methotrexate. This additional selection pressure resulted in a cell line, CCRF-CEM/R2, resistant to methotrexate by virtue of both an elevation of dihydrofolate reductase activity and a marked decrease in methotrexate...
متن کاملFirst glance on the three-dimensional structure of the photosynthetic reaction center from a herbicide-resistant Rhodopseudomonas viridis mutant.
A first model of the three-dimensional structure of the photosynthetic reaction center of the mutant T1 (SerL223----Ala, ArgL217----His) from Rhodopseudomonas viridis, resistant toward the triazine herbicide terbutryn (2-methylthio-4-ethylamino-6-t-butylamino-s-triazine), has been developed from X-ray data measured to a resolution of 2.5 A. The secondary quinone, QB, which in T1 binds better th...
متن کامل5-Methyltetrahydrofolate transport by hepatoma cells and methotrexate-resistant sublines in culture.
The properties of the folate transport system in H35 hepatoma cells have been studied by measuring the transport of (+)-5-methyltetrahydrofolate. Using initial rates of uptake, it has been demonstrated that the uptake is saturable, carrier mediated, and shared by methotrexate. The accumulation of (+)-5-methyltetrahydrofolate is concentrative, demonstrating the presence of an active transport pr...

متن کاملStudy of antagonistic effects of Lactobacillus strains as probiotics on multi drug resistant (MDR) bacteria isolated from urinary tract infections (UTIs)
Objective(s):Urinary tract infection (UTI) caused by bacteria is one of the most frequent infections in human population. Inappropriate use of antibiotics, often leads to appearance of drug resistance in bacteria. However, use of probiotic bacteria has been suggested as a partial replacement. This study was aimed to assess the antagonistic effects of Lactobacillus standard strains against bacte...
