Quinolone Resistance of Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae Revealed through Genome and Transcriptome Analyses. [PDF]

open access: yesInt J Mol Sci, 2021
Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae is a pathogen that infects pigs and poses a serious threat to the pig industry. The emergence of quinolone-resistant strains of A.pleuropneumoniae further limits the choice of treatment.

Quinolone resistance in Campylobacter [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Antimicrobial Chemotherapy, 2003
assumed that the recording of foreign travel indicated a temporal association. Sensitivity to ciprofloxacin and erythromycin was tested using a disc method. The rates of resistance in individuals with and without a history of recent foreign travel in both the CSSSC and the London groups are shown in Table 1.

Quinolones: Action and Resistance Updated [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Topics in Medicinal Chemistry, 2009
The quinolones trap DNA gyrase and DNA topoisomerase IV on DNA as complexes in which the DNA is broken but constrained by protein. Early studies suggested that drug binding occurs largely along helix-4 of the GyrA (gyrase) and ParC (topoisomerase IV) proteins.

Prevalence and Characterization of Quinolone-Resistance Determinants in Escherichia coli Isolated from Food-Producing Animals and Animal-Derived Food in the Philippines

open access: yes, 2021
Antimicrobial resistance to quinolones, which constitutes a threat to public health, has been increasing worldwide. In this study, we investigated the prevalence of quinolone-resistant determinants in Escherichia coli not susceptible to quinolones and ...

Structural insights into the quinolone resistance mechanism of Mycobacterium tuberculosis DNA gyrase. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2010
Mycobacterium tuberculosis DNA gyrase, an indispensable nanomachine involved in the regulation of DNA topology, is the only type II topoisomerase present in this organism and is hence the sole target for quinolone action, a crucial drug active against ...

Clinical Importance and Epidemiology of Quinolone Resistance [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The quinolone class of antimicrobial agents is one of most widely used classes of antimicrobial agents in outpatient and inpatient treatment. However, quinolone resistance in gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria has emerged and increased globally ...

Quinolone-resistant Escherichia coli [PDF]

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2008
Quinolones (nalidixic acid--NAL, norfloxacin--NOR, ciprofloxacin--CIP and gatifloxacin--GAT) were tested against Escherichia coli isolated from urine (385 patient samples) by disk diffusion (DD) and agar dilution (AD) methods. Fifty-three samples (13.8%) were classified as resistant to at least one of the quinolones tested. CIP and NOR susceptibilities

Functional Identification and Evolutionary Analysis of Two Novel Plasmids Mediating Quinolone Resistance in Proteus vulgaris

open access: yes, 2020
Plasmid-mediated quinolone resistance (PMQR) remains one of the main mechanisms of bacterial quinolone resistance and plays an important role in the transmission of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs). In this study, two novel plasmids, p3M-2A and p3M-2B,

Quinolone resistance mechanisms among extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL) producing Escherichia coli isolated from rivers and lakes in Switzerland. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Sixty extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL)-producing Escherichia coli isolated from rivers and lakes in Switzerland were screened for individual strains additionally exhibiting a reduced quinolone susceptibility phenotype.

Carriage of Class 1 and 2 Integrons in Quinolone, Extended-Spectrum-β-Lactamase-Producing and Multi Drug Resistant E.coli and K.pneumoniae: High Burden of Antibiotic Resistance [PDF]

open access: yesAdvanced Pharmaceutical Bulletin, 2015
Purpose: The study aimed at assessing any association between quinolone resistance, MDR and ESBL production and their relation with the presence of integrons in Esherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae.
