Multidrug Efflux Pumps in Bacteria and Efflux Pump Inhibitors

open access: yesPostępy Mikrobiologii - Advancements of Microbiology, 2022
Abstract Antimicrobial resistance is becoming a paramount health concern nowadays. The increasing drug resistance in microbes is due to improper medications or over usage of drugs. Bacteria develop many mechanisms to extrude the antibiotics entering the cell. The most prominent are the efflux pumps (EPs).

Detection of Efflux Pump Using Ethidium Bromide-Agar Cartwheel Method in Acinetobacter baumannii Clinical Isolates

open access: yesJournal of Medical Microbiology and Infectious Diseases, 2022
Introduction: In the past decade, multidrug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii has become one of the most critical challenges in treating infected patients. The AdeABC efflux pump is the most important among the various resistance mechanisms. This pump

Microbial Primer: Multidrug efflux pumps.

open access: yesMicrobiology (Reading, England), 2023
Multidrug efflux pumps are molecular machines that sit in the bacterial cell membrane and pump molecules out from either the periplasm or cytoplasm to outside the cell. While involved in a variety of biological roles, they are primarily known for their contribution to antibiotic resistance by limiting the intracellular accumulation of antimicrobial ...

Interplay between three RND efflux pumps in doxycycline-selected strains of Burkholderia thailandensis. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
BACKGROUND: Efflux systems are involved in multidrug resistance in most Gram-negative non-fermentative bacteria. We have chosen Burkholderia thailandensis to dissect the development of multidrug resistance phenotypes under antibiotic pressure ...

Efflux pump inhibitory potential of indole derivatives as an arsenal against norA over-expressing Staphylococcus aureus

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum, 2023
NorA, an extensively studied efflux pump in Staphylococcus aureus, has been connected to fluoroquinolone, antiseptic, and disinfection resistance. Several studies have also emphasized how efflux pumps, including NorA, function as the first line of ...
