Colistin Resistance in Acinetobacter baumannii: Molecular Mechanisms and Epidemiology
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.
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.

Current Update on Intrinsic and Acquired Colistin Resistance Mechanisms in Bacteria
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.

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