Gene expression in <i>Lucilia sericata</i> (Diptera: Calliphoridae) larvae exposed to <i>Pseudomonas aeruginosa</i> and <i>Acinetobacter baumanii</i> identifies shared and microbe-specific induction of immune genes

2021-04-04

Abstract excerpt

Antibiotic resistance is a continuing challenge in medicine. There are various strategies for expanding antibiotic therapeutic repertoires, including the use of blow flies. Their larvae exhibit strong antibiotic and antibiofilm properties that alter microbiome communities. One species, Lucilia sericata , is used to treat problematic wounds due to its debridement capabilities and its excretions and secretions that...
