Abstract excerpt
Antimicrobial resistance in mycobacteria arises from a complex interplay of intrinsic and acquired mechanisms that collectively limit the efficacy of current therapeutic options. Intrinsic resistance is largely driven by the low permeability of the mycobacterial cell envelope, the activity of efflux pumps, and the presence of drug-modifying enzymes, which together restrict intracellular drug accumulation and...
