Cefazolin and Imipenem Enhance AmpC Expression and Resistance in NagZ-Dependent Manner in Enterobacter Cloacae
2021-10-13
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background: </h4> Enterobacter cloacae (EC) is a commonly occurring opportunistic pathogen and is responsible for causing various infections in humans. Owing to its inducible chromosomal AmpC β-lactamase (AmpC), EC is inherently resistant to the 1st- and 2nd- generation cephalosporins. However, whether β-lactams antibiotics enhance EC resistance remains unclear. <h4>Results: </h4>: In this study, we found that...
