Adaptive response of Pseudomonas aeruginosa under serial ciprofloxacin exposure.

ABSTRACT: Understanding the evolution of antibiotic resistance is important for combating drug-resistant bacteria. In this work, we investigated the adaptive response of Pseudomonas aeruginosa to ciprofloxacin. Ciprofloxacin-susceptible P. aeruginosa ATCC 9027, CIP-E1 (P. aeruginosa ATCC 9027 exposed to ciprofloxacin for 14 days) and CIP-E2 (CIP-E1 cultured in antibiotic-free broth for 10 days) were compared. Phenotypic responses including cell morphology, antibiotic susceptibility, and production of pyoverdine, pyocyanin and rhamnolipid were assessed. Proteomic responses were evaluated using comparative iTRAQ labelling LC-MS/MS to identify differentially expressed proteins (DEPs). Expression of associated genes coding for notable DEPs and their related regulatory genes were che
