Abstract

Routine antibiotics susceptibility testing still relies on standardized cultivation-based analyses, includingmeasurement of inhibition zones in conventional agar diffusion tests.The sensitivity of the bacterial isolatescausing Clinical isolatest results showed that all the isolates subjected to this study showed varying resistanceto the antibiotics used. The effect of nanoparticles combined with different antibiotics was investigatedagainst multi resistant Clinical isolates bacteria using disk diffusion method. The inhibition zones diameter(mm) around various antibiotic discs (Trimethoprim, sulphamethaxazol, Azithromycin, Aztreonam,Ceftriaxone, Gentamycin, Tetracyclin, Nitrofurantoin) with/without nanopatrticles against isolates weremeasured. The antibacterial activities of some antibiotics have been increased in the presence of nanoparticleagainst all isolates while others showed no effect. The highest antibacterial activities of antibiotics combinedwith nanoparticle were observed against E.coli isolates for Gentamycin, Trimethoprim-sulphamethaxazol,Azithromycin ,Tetracyclin ,Nitrofurantoin. while A. baumanii appeared sensitive to Gentamycin,Trimethoprim sulphamethaxazol and Azithromycin compared with antibiotics alone. K.pneumoniae becamesensitive to Gentamycin, Tetracyclin and P.aeruginosa to Ampicillin,Trimethoprim sulphamethaxazol,Azithromycin and Gentamycin. nanoparticle showed no effect on antibacterial activities of all antibioticsexcept Gentamycin against gram positive bacteria S.aureus.

Abstract

Psychrobacter spp. are a Gram negative bacteria, aerobic, non-motile, small, with coccobacilli shape.Originally isolated from seaweed samples and marine environments. Recently considered as rareopportunistic human pathogens. Sixty –five years old women admitted to hospital with diabetic mellitusand stage 4 pressure ulcers (PU) with seizure and mild fever 37.9 °C. A gram staining of blood culturerevealed gram negative bacteria have a cocobacilli shape. The VITEK2 system (bioMérieux) misidentify theisolate as Acinetobacter bumannii complex with low discrimination. The submission of the bacterial isolateto the GenBank BLAST search tool revealed that the Iraqi isolate show 100% homology with Psychrobactersp.

Abstract

The liver is an important organ in the body that can be affected by many drugs and toxins. The hepatotoxinscan cause oxidant stress that lead to activation of inflammatory cells and cause liver damage. Drug inducedbile duct injuries are related to drug toxicity, multiple drugs have been known to cause the development ofliver granulomas. Carbamazepine (CBZ) among other antiepileptic drugs is believed to cause hepatic injury.In this study we investigated the effect of (CBZ) 20mg/kg/day on female mice liver after 14 and 30 daysof treatment. The histological findings showed that (CBZ) can cause histological alterations in the livercomponents such as bile duct proliferation, biliary hypertrophy, ductopenia, inflammatory cells infiltrationand granulomas.

Abstract

The cellular immune response and apoptotic pathways are closely related dose dependent responses againstEchinococcus granulosus antigens. The aim of this study is to evaluate the cellular expression of Bax,Bcl-2 and Caspase-3 in both liver and spleen of experimentally cystic echinococcosis mice treated withOxfendazole, Oxfendazole +Praziquantel, Oxfendazole +Albendazole and Albendazole +Praziquantel ofexperimentally mice model of cystic echinococcosis. After 2 months of treatment, mice were sacrificed andboth liver and spleen were processed for immunohistochemistry staining protocol using specific primaryantibody against mouse Bax, Bcl-2 and Caspase-3 proteins. The results showed that E. granulosus infectionable to induce apoptosis in both liver and spleen tissues after induction of cystic echinococcosis mice model,treatment with Albendazole in combination form gives better results because of attenuation of apoptosispathway and restore of normal cellular behavior. In conclusion, this study describes the involvement ofapoptosis in the pathogenesis of cystic echinococcosis.
