OmpF Downregulation Mediated by Sigma E or OmpR Activation Confers Cefalexin Resistance in <i>Escherichia coli</i> in the Absence of Acquired β-Lactamases
2021-05-17
Abstract excerpt
Cefalexin is a widely used 1 st generation cephalosporin, and resistance in Escherichia coli is caused by Extended-Spectrum (e.g. CTX-M) and AmpC β-lactamase production and therefore frequently coincides with 3 rd generation cephalosporin resistance. However, we have recently identified large numbers of E. coli isolates from human infections, and from cattle, where cefalexin resistance is not β-lactamase media...
