Elevated concentrations of polymyxin B elicit a biofilm-specific resistance mechanism inVibrio cholerae

Julien Pauzé-Foixet,
Marylise Duperthuy

Abstract: Vibrio cholerae can form biofilms both in the aquatic environment and in the human intestine, facilitating the release of hyper-infectious aggregates. Due to the increasing antibiotic resistance that impedes the treatment of infections, alternatives need to be found. One of these alternatives is antimicrobial peptides, including polymyxin B (PmB), which is already used to treat infections caused by antibiotic-resistant bacteria. In this study, we first investigated the resistance of V. cholerae O1 El Tor strai… Show more
