Fluorescence-Based Flow Sorting in Parallel with Transposon Insertion Site Sequencing Identifies Multidrug Efflux Systems in Acinetobacter baumannii

open access: yesmBio, 2016
Multidrug efflux pumps provide clinically significant levels of drug resistance in a number of Gram-negative hospital-acquired pathogens. These pathogens frequently carry dozens of genes encoding putative multidrug efflux pumps.

Determination of efflux activity in Enterococci by Hoechst accumulation assay and the role of zinc oxide nanoparticles in inhibition of this activity

open access: yesBMC Microbiology, 2022
Background Contribution of efflux pumps in development of antimicrobial resistance has been largely addressed in Gram negative and to a much lesser extent in Gram positive bacteria.

Social interactions in the Burkholderia cepacia complex : biofilms and quorum sensing [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Burkholderia cepacia complex bacteria are opportunistic pathogens that cause respiratory tract infections in susceptible patients, mainly people with cystic fibrosis. There is convincing evidence that B.

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 ...

Contribution of RND-Type Efflux Pumps in Reduced Susceptibility to Biocides in Acinetobacter baumannii

open access: yesAntibiotics, 2022
Bacterial efflux pumps are among the key mechanisms of resistance against antibiotics and biocides. We investigated whether differential expression levels of the RND-type efflux pumps AdeABC and AdeIJK impacted the susceptibility to commonly used ...

Correlation of ciprofloxacin resistance with the AdeABC efflux system in Acinetobacter baumannii clinical isolates [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Background: Acinetobacter baumannii is one of the most important pathogens capable of colonization in burn patients, leading to drug-resistant wound infections.

Transferrin receptor 1‐mediated iron uptake supports thermogenic activation in human cervical‐derived adipocytes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In this study, we found that human cervical‐derived adipocytes maintain intracellular iron level by regulating the expression of iron transport‐related proteins during adrenergic stimulation. Melanotransferrin is predicted to interact with transferrin receptor 1 based on in silico analysis.

Efflux Pump-mediated Drug Resistance in Burkholderia

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2015
Several members of the genus Burkholderia are prominent pathogens. Infections caused by these bacteria are difficult to treat because of significant antibiotic resistance.

Draft Genome Sequence of the Biofilm-Forming Stenotrophomonas maltophilia Strain 53 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
A clinical strain of Stenotrophomonas maltophilia (designated strain 53) was obtained, and a whole-genome sequence was generated. The subsequent draft whole-genome sequence demonstrated the presence of a number of genes encoding for proteins involved in ...

Efflux pump-mediated resistance in chemotherapy

open access: yesAnnals of Medical and Health Sciences Research, 2012
Efflux pump mechanisms perform important physiological functions such as prevention of toxin absorption from the gastrointestinal tract, elimination of bile from the hepatocytes, effective functioning of the blood-brain barrier and placental barrier, and renal excretion of drugs.
