AmpC induction by imipenem in Pseudomonas aeruginosa occurs in the absence of OprD and impacts imipenem/relebactam susceptibility
24 Sept 2024
Abstract excerpt
ABSTRACT In the United States, carbapenem resistance in Pseudomonas aeruginosa is linked to the regulation of chromosomal resistance determinants, AmpC and OprD. The β-lactamase AmpC requires overexpression and genetic modifications to be capable of inhibiting imipenem activity. The outer membrane porin OprD can be downregulated or undergo genetic modifications that strongly correlate with imipenem...
