Acquisition of Colistin Resistance Links Cell Membrane Thickness Alteration with a Point Mutation in the lpxD Gene in Acinetobacter baumannii

, 2020
Acinetobacter baumannii is one of the most common causes of nosocomial infections in intensive care units. Its ability to acquire diverse mechanisms of resistance limits the therapeutic choices for its treatment.

Genome analyses of colistin-resistant high-risk bla NDM-5 producing Klebsiella pneumoniae ST147 and Pseudomonas aeruginosa ST235 and ST357 in clinical settings

BMC Microbiology
Background Colistin is a last-resort antibiotic used in extreme cases of multi-drug resistant (MDR) Gram-negative bacterial infections. Colistin resistance has increased in recent years and often goes undetected due to the inefficiency of predominantly ...

The evolution of colistin resistance increases bacterial resistance to host antimicrobial peptides and virulence

eLife, 2023
Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) offer a promising solution to the antibiotic resistance crisis. However, an unresolved serious concern is that the evolution of resistance to therapeutic AMPs may generate cross-resistance to host AMPs, compromising a ...

Prevalence and Genomic Characterization of mcr‐Positive Enterobacteriaceae in Retail Meat in Thailand Following the Colistin Ban

Microbiology and Immunology, Volume 70, Issue 9, Page 402-415, September 2026.
ABSTRACT This study aimed to investigate the prevalence and characteristics of mcr‐positive Enterobacteriaceae in retail meat in Thailand following the national ban on prophylactic colistin use in food producing animals. A total of 152 meat samples (103 chicken and 49 pork) were collected from supermarkets and open markets between July and September ...

Whole Genome Characterization of Klebsiella Strains in European Hedgehogs and Human Nosocomial Settings Identified Shared Sequence Types, Antimicrobial Resistance Genes and Plasmids

Zoonoses and Public Health, Volume 73, Issue 6, Page 516-527, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Klebsiella pneumoniae is a pathogen associated with healthcare‐acquired infections and antimicrobial resistance (AMR) to beta‐lactams and carbapenems. Although wild animals are not typically exposed to antibiotics, they can harbour resistant strains. The European hedgehog (Erinaceus europaeus) is increasingly found in urban areas,
