The Convergence of Antimicrobial Resistance and Virulence in <em>Streptococcus pneumoniae</em>: A Molecular and Clinical Perspective
2026-06-05
Abstract excerpt
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) and virulence have traditionally been viewed as competing traits in bacterial evolution due to fitness costs. However, Streptococcus pneumoniae has emerged as a paradigm of successful coevolution, with multidrug-resistant clones simultaneously maintaining or enhancing pathogenic potential. This review examines the molecular mechanisms, epidemiological patterns, and clinical consequen...
