MAGNOLOL ENHANCES THE THERAPEUTIC EFFECTS OF TRAIL THROUGH DR5 UPREGULATION AND DOWNREGULATION OF C-FLIP AND MCL-1 PROTEINS IN CANCER CELLS

Magnolol Enhances the Therapeutic Effects of TRAIL through DR5 Upregulation and Downregulation of c-FLIP and Mcl-1 Proteins in Cancer Cells

Magnolol is a biologically active compound, isolated from the Chinese herb Magnolia, that regulates antiproliferative, anticancer, antiangiogenic and antimetastatic activities.We found that magnolol sensitizes TRAIL-induced apoptotic cell death via upregulation of DR5 and downregulation of cellular FLICE-inhibitory protein (c-FLIP) and Mcl-1 ESTER-

Phage Resistance in Multidrug-Resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae ST258 Evolves via Diverse Mutations That Culminate in Impaired Adsorption

ABSTRACT The evolution of phage resistance poses an inevitable threat to the efficacy of phage therapy.The strategic selection of phage combinations that impose high genetic barriers to resistance and/or high compensatory fitness costs may mitigate this threat.However, for such a strategy to be effective, the evolution of phage resistance must be s
