Chemical Communication of Antibiotic Resistance by a Highly Resistant Subpopulation of Bacterial Cells
The overall antibiotic resistance of a bacterial population results from the combination of a wide range of susceptibilities displayed by subsets of bacterial cells. Bacterial heteroresistance to antibiotics has been documented for several opportunistic Gram-negative bacteria, but the mechanism of heteroresistance is unclear. We use Burkholderia cenocepacia as a model opportunistic bacterium to...
متن کاملGemcitabine resistance in a highly metastatic subpopulation of a pulmonary adenocarcinoma cell line resistant to gefitinib.
The response rates to combination chemotherapy in metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cases have been reported to be lower than those to induction chemotherapy in locally advanced cases. To understand the relationship between highly metastatic potential and chemosensitivity, we examined the drug sensitivity of a highly metastatic human lung adenocarcinoma cell subpopulation, PC9/f14, ...
متن کاملEscape from Lethal Bacterial Competition through Coupled Activation of Antibiotic Resistance and a Mobilized Subpopulation
Bacteria have diverse mechanisms for competition that include biosynthesis of extracellular enzymes and antibiotic metabolites, as well as changes in community physiology, such as biofilm formation or motility. Considered collectively, networks of competitive functions for any organism determine success or failure in competition. How bacteria integrate different mechanisms to optimize competiti...
