Sun Baolin from the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC) revealed the mechanism of transcriptional regulation via S-nitrosylation for vancomycin resistance in Staphylococcus aureus.

Furthermore, the evidence consistently demonstrated that the onset of vancomycin-induced neutropenia occurred with prolonged use. The exact mechanism of vancomycin-induced neutropenia is unknown ...

While cefazolin remains the mainstay of antimicrobial prophylaxis in most surgical procedures, there is a growing propensity to combine cefazolin with vancomycin in a number of procedures where ...
