Adaptive Responses of Pseudomonas aeruginosa to Treatment with Antibiotics.

ABSTRACT: Pseudomonas aeruginosa is among the highest priority pathogens for drug development because of its resistance to antibiotics, extraordinary adaptability, and persistence. Antipseudomonal research is strongly encouraged to address the acute scarcity of innovative antimicrobial lead structures. In an effort to understand the physiological response of P. aeruginosa to clinically relevant antibiotics, we investigated the proteome after exposure to ciprofloxacin, levofloxacin, rifampicin, gentamicin, tobramycin, azithromycin, tigecycline, polymyxin B, colistin, ceftazidime, meropenem, and piperacillin-tazobactam. We further investigated the response to CHIR-090, which represents a promising class of lipopolysaccharide biosynthesis inhibitors currently under evaluation. Radioactive pulse-labelin
