Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is one of the most urgent challenges in public health, and the horizontal transfer of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) mediated by mobile genetic elements (MGEs) drives its widespread global dissemination. Although integrative conjugative elements (ICEs) outnumber...

Plasmid-mediated dissemination of mcr genes has severely compromised colistin efficacy, necessitating adjuvants that restore antibacterial potency without exacerbating toxicity. Despite their essential roles in bacterial survival and virulence, metal ion acquisition systems remain underexplored as t...

The widespread use of chloroquine phosphate (CQP) during the COVID-19 pandemic has led to its persistent residues in aquatic environments, yet its impact on the horizontal transfer of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) remains unknown. Herein, the effects and molecular mechanisms of CQP on plasmid-m...

Bialaphos resistance (BAR) and phosphinothricin acetyltransferase (PAT) genes, which convey resistance to the broad-spectrum herbicide phosphinothricin (also known as glufosinate) via N-acetylation, have been globally used in basic plant research and genetically engineered crops. Although early in v...

Mobile colistin resistance (mcr) genes undermine the efficacy of last-line polymyxin antibiotics, and the global prevalence of mcr-3 continues to rise despite reduced colistin use. Here, we show that mcr-3-positive Escherichia coli (E. coli) confers a survival advantage by reprogramming macrophag...

Polymyxin B (PB) is introduced into the clinic as the last-line therapy against carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP). Unfortunately, increased resistance to PB in Klebsiella pneumoniae (K. pneumoniae) has threatened global health. Resistance of K. pneumoniae ...

Incomplete antibiotic removal in pharmaceutical wastewater treatment plants (PWWTPs) could lead to the development and spread of antibiotic-resistant bacteria (ARBs) and genes (ARGs) in the environment, posing a growing public health threat. In this study, two multiantibiotic-resistant bacteria, Och...
ORGANISM(S): mixed sample 
Intracellular pathogens are particularly refractory to antibiotic eradication, leading to persistent and relapsing infections. However, how intracellular metabolic microenvironments shape antibiotic resistance phenotypes remains poorly understood. Here we delineate a metabolic-regulatory axis wherei...
