Elevated concentrations of polymyxin B elicit a biofilm-specific resistance mechanism in <i>Vibrio cholerae</i>
2023-06-29
Abstract excerpt
Vibrio cholerae can form biofilms both in the aquatic environment and in the human intestine, facilitating the release of hyper-infectious aggregates. Due to the increasing antibiotic resistance that impedes treatment of infections, alternatives need to be found. One of these alternatives is antimicrobial peptides, including polymyxin B (PmB), which is already used to treat infections caused by antibiotic-resistan...
