Understanding Recent Developments in Colistin Resistance: Mechanisms, Clinical Implications, and Future Perspectives
2025-04-10
Abstract excerpt
Colistin resistance, driven by chromosomal mutations and the spread of plasmid-mediated MCR genes, has emerged as a critical challenge in combating multidrug-resistant gram-negative bacteria. This resistance compromises the efficacy of colistin, leading to higher treatment failure rates, prolonged hospitalizations, and increased mortality. Recent studies highlight key mechanisms, including lipid A modifications, t...
