Antibiotic resistance profiles of Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates containing virulence genes
Background: A most common opportunistic pathogen, Pseudomonas aeruginosa is present in both humans and animals and responsible for various nosocomial infections and healthcare settings related infections. Different virulence genes like; oprL (membrane lipoprotein L) and toxA (exotoxin A i.e. ETA) in P. aeruginosa, assist in its pathogenicity, toxicity and contribute to high antibiotic resistanc...
متن کاملSurface attachment induces Pseudomonas aeruginosa virulence.
Pseudomonas aeruginosa infects every type of host that has been examined by deploying multiple virulence factors. Previous studies of virulence regulation have largely focused on chemical cues, but P. aeruginosa may also respond to mechanical cues. Using a rapid imaging-based virulence assay, we demonstrate that P. aeruginosa activates virulence in response to attachment to a range of chemicall...
متن کاملTwo-component systems required for virulence in Pseudomonas aeruginosa
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a versatile opportunistic pathogen capable of infecting a broad range of hosts, in addition to thriving in a broad range of environmental conditions outside of hosts. With this versatility comes the need to tightly regulate its genome to optimise its gene expression and behaviour to the prevailing conditions. Two-component systems (TCSs) comprising sensor kinases and r...
متن کاملDsbA of Pseudomonas aeruginosa is essential for multiple virulence factors.
DsbA is a periplasmic thiol:disulfide oxidoreductase which contributes to the process of protein folding by catalyzing the formation of disulfide bonds. In this study, we demonstrate that the dsbA gene is required for the expression of the type III secretion system under low-calcium inducing conditions, intracellular survival of P. aeruginosa upon infection of HeLa cells, and twitching motility...
متن کاملDifferentiation in Quinolone Resistance by Virulence Genotype in Pseudomonas aeruginosa
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a leading pathogen that has become increasingly resistant to the fluoroquinolone antibiotics due to widespread prescribing. Adverse outcomes have been shown for patients infected with fluoroquinolone-resistant strains. The type III secretion system (TTSS) is a major virulence determinant during acute infections through the injection of effector toxins into host cells. ...
