Porins, efflux pumps and multidrug resistance in Acinetobacter baumannii.
Acinetobacter baumannii is an opportunistic pathogen, causing infections mainly in patients in intensive care units where the extensive use of antimicrobial agents can select for the emergence of multiresistant strains. In fact, since strains resistant to all antimicrobial agents have been reported, A. baumannii is considered the paradigm of multiresistant bacteria. Both acquired and intrinsic ...
متن کاملContribution of efflux pumps, porins, and β-lactamases to multidrug resistance in clinical isolates of Acinetobacter baumannii.
We investigated the mechanisms of resistance to carbapenems, aminoglycosides, glycylcyclines, tetracyclines, and quinolones in 90 multiresistant clinical strains of Acinetobacter baumannii isolated from two genetically unrelated A. baumannii clones: clone PFGE-ROC-1 (53 strains producing the OXA-58 β-lactamase enzyme and 18 strains with the OXA-24 β-lactamase) and clone PFGE-HUI-1 (19 strains s...
متن کاملadeabc efflux pump genes in multidrug resistant acinetobacter baumannii isolates
conclusions adeabc efflux system plays a vital role in multidrug resistance in clinical a. baumannii isolates. it was noted that the most important gene responsible for multidrug resistance within this system was the adeb gene especially in carbapenems resistance. methods this study was conducted on 84 multidrug resistant and 13 carbapenem-susceptible a. baumannii isolates obtained from burn an...

Abstract Background: Efflux systems are components of the bacterial membrane that play a role in homeostasis of the cell and extrusion of toxic compounds. Efflux pumps of the resistance nodulation cell division (RND) superfamily, confer multidrug resistance to their host when over-expressed. One of the RND efflux systems, is AdeABC which have been characterized for A. baumannii. Another pump be...
متن کاملMultidrug resistant Acinetobacter baumannii--the role of AdeABC (RND family) efflux pump in resistance to antibiotics.
Acinetobacter baumannii is an opportunistic pathogen which play the more and more greater role in the pathogenicity of the human. It is often attached with the hospital environment, in which is able easily to survive for many days even in adverse conditions. Acinetobacter baumannii is the species responsible for a serious nosocomial infections, especially in the intensive care units. Option of ...
