Towards Understanding MCR-like Colistin Resistance

Trends in Microbiology, 2018
Antibiotic resistance has become a global public health priority. Polymyxins, a family of cationic polypeptide antibiotics, act as a final line of refuge against severe infections by Gram-negative pathogens with pan-drug resistance. Unfortunately, this last-resort antibiotic has been challenged by the emergence and global spread of mobilized colistin ...

Plasmid-mediated colistin-resistance genes: mcr

Trends in Microbiology
Colistin is regarded as a last-line drug against serious infections caused by multidrug-resistant Gram-negative bacterial pathogens. Therefore, the emergence of mobile colistin resistance (mcr) genes has attracted global concern and led to policy changes for the use of colistin in food animals across many countries.

RETRACTED: Verapamil increases susceptibility of colistin-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii to colistin

International Journal of Antimicrobial Agents
Acinetobacter baumannii, which is predominantly responsible for hospital-acquired infections, presents a tremendous clinical challenge due to its increasing antibiotic resistance to colistin (COL), a last-line antibiotic. As a result, the combination of antimicrobial and non-antimicrobial agents is emerging as a more popular treatment approach against ...

Global Burden of Colistin Resistant Bacteria: Mobilized Colistin Resistant Genes Study 1980-2018

SSRN Electronic Journal, 2018
Background: Global dissemination of the mobilized colistin resistance (mcr) genes provokes a significant public health threat. However, the exact global prevalence of mcr genes, their reservoirs and the potential transmission pathways to humans have not been comprehensively examined.   Methods: Bilingual publications in four English (PubMed, Scopus,

Colistin resistance in Carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae strains.

2016
Objective: Because of the increase in the infections caused by carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase (KPC)-producing K. pneumoniae; nowadays colistin is used more frequently. In this study, the firstly detected colistin resistance in carbapenem-resistant KPC-producing K. pneumoniae strains were evaluated.
