Currently, there are many studies on the mechanism of antibiotic resistance in Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), but there are few studies on its regulatory mechanism. Post-translational modifications (PTMs) have been recognized for their important role in controlling cellular dynamics such as metabolism and stress response, but the relationship between PTMs and antibiotic resistance gradually attracted the attention of researchers. Here, we summarize the definition of PTMs, and the mechanisms of antibiotic resistance in M. tuberculosis and discuss how PTMs are involved in antibiotic resistance, in order to provide a new breakthrough for the development of new anti-Ttb drugs.

To meet the requirement of pathological practice and development, we systematically analyzed the situation of pathological residents training and the importance of initiating the clinical scientific research training. Additionally, we proposed the principle and implementation strategy for clinical scientific research training. According to features of pathological practice, we employed the modularized teaching to divide the training courses into several modules: discussion module for clinical pathology, lecture module for advanced research, and training modules for basic scientific theory, technology and writing skill. With these approaches, the systematic and structured system of standardized residents training is implemented to improve the clinical research ability of pathological residents.
