AdeABC Efflux Pump Controlled by AdeRS Two Component System Conferring Resistance to Tigecycline, Omadacycline and Eravacycline in Clinical Carbapenem Resistant Acinetobacter nosocomialis.

ABSTRACT: Carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter nosocomialis (CRAn) is a significant public health concern. Tigecycline non-susceptible CRAn (Tn-CRAn) isolates have emerged worldwide. Tigecycline resistance is mainly related to the overexpression of AdeABC efflux pump controlled by AdeRS two-component system (TCS). Two novel tetracycline derivatives, omadacycline and eravacycline, may present a treatment option for CRAn. This study investigated the in vitro antimicrobial activity of tigecycline, omadacycline and eravacycline against clinical CRAn isolates and the contribution of efflux pumps in their resistance. Eighty-nine clinical CRAn isolates, including 57 Tn-CRAn isolates were evaluated for minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) by the broth microdilution. The relationship between
