Anti-thrombotic treatment enhances antibiotic efficiency in a humanized model of meningococcemia

2022-01-11

Abstract excerpt

Meningococcal infections remain particularly difficult to treat. Despite antibiotic therapy, the state of the patients often rapidly deteriorates. Early clinical studies suggest that meningococci acquire a form of resistance to antibiotic treatments during infections. Taking advantage of a humanized animal model of infection, we confirm that adherent bacteria become highly resistant to antibiotic treatments as ear...
