MCR-1 Confers Cross-Resistance to Bacitracin, a Widely Used In-Feed Antibiotic

mSphere, 2018
Extensive use of colistin in food animals is deemed a major driving force for the emergence and transmission of mcr-1. However, a non-colistin usage factor(s) contributing to mobile colistin resistance may also exist in animal production systems.

A Genomic Catalog of Migratory Microbiomes from Wild Birds across China's Habitats

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 26, 8 May 2026.
ABSTRACT Migratory birds play an important role in the spread of antimicrobial resistance (AMR); however, gaps in surveillance data from vital regions along migratory flyways across China limit the detection of emergent threats. Here, we assembled 340 metagenomes from 52 bird species covering 11 provincial administrative districts in China, presenting ...

Colistin-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa clinical strains with defective biofilm formation

GMS Hygiene and Infection Control, 2019
Aim: Colistin is the only effective antibiotic in some cases of resistance to all tested antibiotics, even carbapenem. On the other hand, biofilm formation is one of the antibiotic resistance mechanisms in this bacterium.

Colistin Resistance Development Following Colistin-Meropenem Combination Therapy Versus Colistin Monotherapy in Patients With Infections Caused by Carbapenem-Resistant Organisms

Clinical Infectious Diseases, 2019
Abstract Background We evaluated whether carbapenem-colistin combination therapy reduces the emergence of colistin resistance, compared to colistin monotherapy, when given to patients with infections due to carbapenem-resistant Gram-negative organisms.

Phenotypic and Genotypic Study of Antibiotic Resistance blaPER‐1, blaVEB, and blaSHV‐1 Genes in Clinical Isolates of Pseudomonas aeruginosa

Health Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a non‐fermentative, opportunistic Gram‐negative bacterium that causes 10%–15% of nosocomial and burn wound infections worldwide. This bacterium is resistant to various antibiotics through multiple mechanisms, including acquisition of resistance genes.

Mutations in the pmrB gene constitute the major mechanism underlying chromosomally encoded colistin resistance in clinical Escherichia coli

Journal of Global Antimicrobial Resistance
Objectives: The mechanisms underlying chromosomally encoded colistin resistance in Escherichia coli remain insufficiently investigated. In this study, we investigated the contribution of various pmrB mutations from E.

Pathogenicity and Antimicrobial‐Resistance Profiles of Escherichia coli Isolated From Faeces of Tibetan Pigs Reared Under Intensive Conditions

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 3, May 2026.
Tibetan pig farms host diverse Escherichia coli strains that resist multiple antibiotics and carry important disease genes, such as astA. These traits jump easily between bacterial groups, marking intensive pig production as a key reservoir and signalling the need for integrated animal–human surveillance and more careful antibiotic use.
