Colistin Resistance in Acinetobacter baumannii: Molecular Mechanisms and Epidemiology

open access: yesAntibiotics, 2023
Acinetobacter baumannii is recognized as a clinically significant pathogen causing a wide spectrum of nosocomial infections. Colistin was considered a last-resort antibiotic for the treatment of infections caused by multidrug-resistant A.

Colistin: From the shadows to a One Health approach for addressing antimicrobial resistance.

open access: yesInternational Journal of Antimicrobial Agents, 2023
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) poses a serious threat to human, animal, and environmental health worldwide. Colistin has regained importance as a last-resort treatment against multidrug-resistant Gram-negative bacteria.

International manufacturing and trade in colistin, its implications in colistin resistance and One Health global policies: a microbiological, economic, and anthropological study.

open access: yesThe Lancet Microbe, 2023
BACKGROUND The emergence of colistin-resistant Enterobacterales is a global public health concern, yet colistin is still widely used in animals that are used for food as treatment, metaphylaxis, prophylaxis, and growth promotion.

Current Update on Intrinsic and Acquired Colistin Resistance Mechanisms in Bacteria

open access: yesFrontiers in Medicine, 2021
Colistin regained global interest as a consequence of the rising prevalence of multidrug-resistant Gram-negative Enterobacteriaceae. In parallel, colistin-resistant bacteria emerged in response to the unregulated use of this antibiotic.

Resolving colistin resistance and heteroresistance in Enterobacter species

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Taxonomical complexity has muddled the classification of clinically relevant Enterobacter species. Authors carry out a genome-based study on clinical isolates to investigate colistin resistance and heteroresistance in Enterobacter .

Association between the use of colistin for short-term treatment of Gram-negative bacterial infections and the emergence of colistin-resistant Enterobacteriaceae in swine from selected swine farms in Thailand.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2020
Long-term use of colistin for preventing Gram-negative bacterial infections in food animals was prohibited in Thailand in 2017, but it is permitted for short-term treatment.

Risk factors of colistin safety according to administration routes: Intravenous and aerosolized colistin. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
BACKGROUND:Nephrotoxicity of intravenous (IV) colistin has impeded its clinical use; aerosolized (AS) colistin may be an alternative, but safety data are lacking. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the incidence of acute kidney injury (AKI) and risk
