A KDPG sensor RccR governs Pseudomonas aeruginosa carbon metabolism and aminoglycoside antibiotic tolerance

open access: yesNucleic Acids Research, 2023
Pseudomonas aeruginosa harbors sophisticated transcription factor (TF) networks to coordinately regulate cellular metabolic states for rapidly adapting to changing environments.

Antimicrobial Efficacy against Antibiotic-Tolerant Staphylococcus aureus Depends on the Mechanism of Antibiotic Tolerance

open access: yesAntibiotics, 2022
Bacteria can adapt to a changing environment by adopting alternate metabolic states favoring small molecule synthesis and resilience over growth. In Staphylococcus aureus, these states are induced by factors present during infection, including nutritional limitations, host responses and competition with other bacteria.

Maintenance and generation of proton motive force are both essential for expression of phenotypic antibiotic tolerance in bacteria

open access: yesMicrobiology spectrum, 2023
Bacterial antibiotic tolerance, a phenomenon first observed in 1944, is known to be responsible for both onset and exacerbation of recurrent and chronic bacterial infections.

Non-responder phenotype reveals apparent microbiome-wide antibiotic tolerance in the murine gut

open access: yesCommunications Biology, 2021
Diener, Hoge et al. show that a third of mice exhibit tolerance to a high dose of the β-lactam antibiotic cefoperazone, independent of antibiotic treatment duration or dietary phytochemical amendment.

Community interactions drive the evolution of antibiotic tolerance in bacteria

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2022
The emergence of antibiotic tolerance (prolonged survival against exposure) in natural bacterial populations is a major concern. Since it has been studied primarily in isogenic populations, we do not yet understand how ecological interactions in a ...

Sensitive bacterial Vm sensors revealed the excitability of bacterial Vm and its role in antibiotic tolerance

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2022
As an important free energy source, the membrane voltage (Vm) regulates many essential physiological processes in bacteria. However, in comparison with eukaryotic cells, knowledge of bacterial electrophysiology is very limited.

Mycobacterium tuberculosis Requires the Outer Membrane Lipid Phthiocerol Dimycocerosate for Starvation-Induced Antibiotic Tolerance

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2022
Mycobacterium tuberculosis causes 10 million cases of active TB disease and over 1 million deaths worldwide each year. TB treatment is complex, requiring at least 6 months of therapy with a combination of antibiotics.

Biofilms as Promoters of Bacterial Antibiotic Resistance and Tolerance [PDF]

open access: yesAntibiotics, 2020
Multidrug resistant bacteria are a global threat for human and animal health. However, they are only part of the problem of antibiotic failure. Another bacterial strategy that contributes to their capacity to withstand antimicrobials is the formation of biofilms. Biofilms are associations of microorganisms embedded a self-produced extracellular matrix.

Targeting Antibiotic Tolerance, Pathogen by Pathogen [PDF]

open access: yesCell, 2018
Antibiotic tolerance, the capacity of genetically susceptible bacteria to survive the lethal effects of antibiotic treatment, plays a critical and underappreciated role in the disease burden of bacterial infections. Here, we take a pathogen-by-pathogen approach to illustrate the clinical significance of antibiotic tolerance and discuss how the ...

Genetic Determinants for Metal Tolerance and Antimicrobial Resistance Detected in Bacteria Isolated from Soils of Olive Tree Farms

open access: yesAntibiotics, 2020
Copper-derived compounds are often used in olive tree farms. In a previous study, a collection of bacterial strains isolated from olive tree farms were identified and tested for phenotypic antimicrobial resistance and heavy metal tolerance.
