Development of Resistance to Clarithromycin and Amoxicillin-Clavulanic Acid in Lactiplantibacillus plantarum In Vitro Is Followed by Genomic Rearrangements and Evolution of Virulence.

ABSTRACT: Ensuring the safety of the use of probiotics is a top priority. Obviously, in addition to studying the beneficial properties of lactic acid bacteria, considerable attention should be directed to assessing the virulence of microorganisms as well as investigating the possibility of its evolution under conditions of selective pressure. To assess the virulence of probiotics, it is now recommended to analyze the genomes of bacteria in relation to the profiles of the virulome, resistome, and mobilome as well as the analysis of phenotypic resistance and virulence in vitro. However, the corresponding procedure has not yet been standardized, and virulence analysis of strains in vivo using model organisms has not been performed. Our study is devoted to testing the assumption that the d
