The Prokaryotes
The revised Third Edition of The Prokaryotes, acclaimed as a classic reference in the field, offers new and updated articles by experts from around the world on taxa of relevance to medicine, ecology and industry. Entries combine phylogenetic and systematic data with insights into genetics, physiology and application. Existing entries have been revised to incorporate rapid progress and technological innovation. The new edition improves on the lucid presentation, logical layout and abundance of illustrations that readers rely on, adding color illustration throughout. Expanded to seven volumes in its print form, the new edition adds a new, searchable online version.
Proteomics of Microbial Pathogens
High-quality research articles on proteomic analyses of microbial pathogens, made available in a handy form. Containing proven, high-quality research articles selected from the popular PROTEOMICS journal, this is a current overview of the latest research into the proteomics analysis of microbial pathogens as well as several review articles.
The Neurobiology and Genetics of Gilles de la Tourette Syndrome: New Avenues Through Large-Scale Collaborative Projects
Gilles de la Tourette Syndrome (TS) is a common, albeit severely under-diagnosed, neuropsychiatric disorder that is caused by a complex genetic basis, interacting with environmental factors. High comorbidity rates with other neurodevelopmental disorders such as attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder and obsessive compulsive disorder raise the intriguing hypothesis of a shared etiological background. Abnormalities of corticostriatal-thalamic-cortical circuits (CSTC) and dysfunction of both dopamine and serotonin neurotransmitter systems are assumed to be associated with TS. Recently, multiple lines of evidence also point towards an important role of additional neurotransmitters such as hist...
Streptococci and the Host
Streptococci and enterococci are the etiologic agents of infectious diseases that rank among the most severe in human pathology. The diagnosis, antibiotherapy, and prevention of the streptococcal diseases have improved considerably. However, the reemergence of severe streptococcal and enterococcal diseases constitutes a growing public health con cern, which remains open to scientific and medical debate. The XIII'h Lancefield International Symposium on Streptococci and Streptococcal Diseases, held at Institut Pasteur, Paris, France, September 16---2el, 1996, attracted 505 par ticipants from 43 countries. Twenty-two percent of the participants were students, a clear sign of the intense interes...
The Global Challenge Posed by the Multiresistant International Clones of Bacterial Pathogens
Multiresistant bacterial pathogens pose a serious problem worldwide making the appropriate treatment of patients with healthcare-associated infections a challenge. The spread of antibiotic resistance is either mediated by mobile genetic elements (MGEs) or the dissemination of genetically-related groups of pathogens, “high-risk clonal complexes”. Interestingly most multiresistant healthcare-associated bacteria command just a few dominant international clonal complexes causing infections in various geographical areas. It is of utmost importance to identify the determinants associated with and promoting the spread of antibiotic resistance and the dissemination of these multiresistant pathog...
Anti-tuberculosis Drug Resistance in the World
This is the third report of the WHO/IUATLD project which gives comparable worldwide information on anti-tuberculosis drug resistance, with data from surveys conducted in 77 different countries or geographical settings during the years 1999 to 2002. Global surveillance identifies areas of high resistance and draws the attention of national authorities to address the problems involved. The report also highlights the importance of conducting surveillance on re-treatment cases, and the role of the laboratory in TB control.
