Colistin heteroresistance and the involvement of the PmrAB regulatory system in <i>Acinetobacter baumannii</i>

2018-04-25

Abstract excerpt

Multidrug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii infection has recently emerged as a worldwide clinical problem and colistin is increasingly being used as last resort therapy. Despite its favorable bacterial killing, resistance and heteroresistance to colistin have been described. Mutations in the PmrAB regulatory pathway have been already associated with colistin resistance whereas the mechanisms for heteroresistance...
