Samples were collected from outdoor patients from different parts of Dhaka city. Susceptibility tests were done by the standardized disk diffusion method. Among the tested drugs, the percent susceptible rates observed were: ciprofloxacin (74%), ampicillin (29%), cephalexin (54%) and trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole (43%) tested against all organisms; gentamicin (73%) tested against gram-negative organisms and erythromycin (72%) tested against gram-positive organisms. Ciprofloxacin showed better activity against gram-negative isolates (80%) compared to the other antibiotics. However, strains highly resistant to ciprofloxacin were detected among commonly isolated gram-negative urinary pathogens: Escherichia coli (18%), Klebsiella species (19%) and Pseudomonas species (30%). Overall susceptibility rate for gram-positive cocci was significantly low for all the antibiotics tested including ciprofloxacin (62%). Minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) of ciprofloxacin was measured for all resistant and susceptible urinary tract infection (UTI) isolates. This study indicates emerging ciprofloxacin resistance among most UTI bacterial pathogens. Increasing resistance against ciprofloxacin demands coordinated monitoring of its activity, and rationale use of the antibiotic in UTI.","PeriodicalId":14531,"journal":{"name":"Japanese journal of medical science & biology","volume":"50 6","pages":"241-50"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.7883/yoken1952.50.241","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"20701596","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A total of 214 Tatera indica and three Bandicoota bengalensis were collected from burrows by the digging method and 89 rat fleas were retrieved. The flea index calculated ranged from 0.26 to 1.0 in different districts. The examination of blood serum samples, contact tissue impression smears and tissue organs (heart, lung, liver and spleen) of these wild rodents did not reveal any evidence of plague activity. The natural harbourages of Tatera indica were found to be elevated land or raised margins of agricultural fields or barren land with thorny bushes/xerophytic plants and parthenium grass. Agricultural fields having wet soil were found to be the preferred harbourages of Bandicoota bengalensis. Movement of wild rodents toward human settlement was observed to be the common phenomenon during the harvesting season which may lead to the creation of favorable conditions for plague outbreaks.","PeriodicalId":14531,"journal":{"name":"Japanese journal of medical science & biology","volume":"50 6","pages":"219-26"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.7883/yoken1952.50.219","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"20701593","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Moreover, the core protein is implicated in the regulation of the transcription of cellular genes including c-myc, RB and p53. Determining the subcellular localization of the core and envelope proteins is therefore necessary to elucidate their behaviors, particularly in vivo ones, regarding the interaction with transcriptional regulatory proteins or gene elements. We defined the subcellular localization of HCV envelope and core proteins which were expressed in substantial levels in the liver of transgenic mice. Subcellular fractionation by ultra-centrifugation revealed that the envelope proteins were present principally in the microsomes of the liver, while a small amount of the protein was detected also in the nuclei. Immunohistochemistry confirmed the localization of envelope proteins in the nuclei. In contrast, the core protein was detected principally in the cytoplasmic fraction, where it was closely associated with lipids. A low level of the core protein was detected also in the nuclei and microsomal fraction. These results suggest possible interaction of the HCV structural proteins with some factors in hepatocytes thereby perturbing intracellular circumstances.","PeriodicalId":14531,"journal":{"name":"Japanese journal of medical science & biology","volume":"50 4-5","pages":"169-77"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"20479001","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
