Trichosporon asahii and Trichosporon inkin Biofilms Produce Antifungal-Tolerant Persister Cells
Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2021 Persister cells are metabolically inactive dormant cells that lie within microbial biofilms. They are phenotypic variants highly tolerant to antimicrobials and, therefore, associated with recalcitrant infections.

Universitas Scientiarum, 2020 Klebsiella pneumoniae is an opportunistic pathogen associated with nosocomial infections. Persister cells are a fraction of a bacterial population that can escape antibiotic treatment and are associated with antibiotic therapy failure.

High-Throughput Screening of a Promoter Library Reveals New Persister Mechanisms in Escherichia Coli
Microbiology Spectrum, 2022 Persister cells are a small subpopulation of phenotypic variants that survive high concentrations of bactericidal antibiotics. Their survival mechanisms are not heritable and can be formed stochastically or triggered by environmental stresses such as ...

Heterogeneous persister cells formation in Acinetobacter baumannii. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Bacterial persistence is a feature that allows susceptible bacteria to survive extreme concentrations of antibiotics and it has been verified in a number of species, such as Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus spp., Mycobacterium spp.

Ciprofloxacin-induced persister-cells in Campylobacter jejuni
, 2020 Campylobacter jejuni is a major bacterial foodborne-pathogen. Ciprofloxacin is an important antibiotic for the treatment of C. jejuni, albeit high rates of fluoroquinolone resistance have limited its usefulness. Persister-cells are transiently antibiotic-

BRAF-Inhibitor-Induced Metabolic Alterations in A375 Melanoma Cells
Metabolites, 2021 Acquired drug tolerance has been a major challenge in cancer therapy. Recent evidence has revealed the existence of slow-cycling persister cells that survive drug treatments and give rise to multi-drug-tolerant mutants in cancer.

Phenol-Soluble Modulins Modulate Persister Cell Formation in Staphylococcus aureus
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020 Staphylococcus aureus is a human pathogen that can cause chronic and recurrent infections and is recalcitrant to antibiotic chemotherapy. This trait is partly attributed to its ability to form persister cells, which are subpopulations of cells that are ...

Immune system detection of Pseudomonas aeruginosa persister cells [PDF]
, 2020 Persister cells are a subpopulation of bacterial cells known to be tolerant to antimicrobials. Their reduced susceptibility to antimicrobials allows them to be the source of recurrence of many chronic bacterial infections.

Persistence of cefotetan on red blood cells [PDF]
Transfusion, 2004 BACKGROUND: Cefotetan can cause severe immune hemolytic anemia that may persist long after the drug is discontinued. To study the binding of cefotetan to RBCs, patients who received cefotetan were followed and tested for the presence of antibody to cefotetan.STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS: Patients receiving cefotetan were identified from pharmacy and ...

The potential role of persister cells in urinary tract infections
, 2023 Purpose of review: This review explores the role of persister cells in urinary tract infections (UTIs). UTIs are one of the most common bacterial infections, affecting millions of people worldwide.
