Treatment ofMycobacterium abscessusInfection [PDF]
Mycobacterium abscessus is often resistant to multiple antimicrobial drugs, and data supporting effective drugs or dosing regimens are limited. To better identify treatment approaches and associated toxicities, we collected a series of case reports from the Emerging Infections Network. Side effects were common and often led to changing or discontinuing

Etamycin as a Novel Mycobacterium abscessus Inhibitor [PDF]
The increase in drug-resistant Mycobacterium abscessus, which has become resistant to existing standard-of-care agents, is a major concern, and new antibacterial agents are strongly needed. In this study, we introduced etamycin that showed an excellent activity against M. abscessus.

Proposal that Mycobacterium massiliense and Mycobacterium bolletii be united and reclassified as Mycobacterium abscessus subsp. bolletii comb. nov., designation of Mycobacterium abscessus subsp. abscessus subsp. nov. and emended description of Mycobacterium abscessus [PDF]
The names ‘Mycobacterium abscessus subsp. abscessus’ and ‘Mycobacterium abscessus subsp. massiliense’, proposed by Leao et al. (2009, J Clin Microbiol 47, 2691–2698), cannot be validly published. The purpose of this report is to provide a description in accordance with the Rules of the Bacteriological Code (1990 Revision).

Impact on Macrolide Resistance of Genetic Diversity of Mycobacterium abscessus Species
Our previous study identified that the Mycobacterium abscessus subsp. abscessus T28 sequevar does not fully represent inducible macrolide resistance. Thus, we initiated a correlation study between genotypes and phenotypes.
