"microplastics in the environment increase antibiotic resistance by up to 200 times"
Good morning, everybody!

www.soci.orgAntimicrobial resistance: How microplastics can increase the spread of AMRMicroplastics in the environment increase the spread of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) by up to 200 times, according to research carried out at the UK’s Ineos Oxford Institute for Antimicrobial Research and Fujian Agriculture and Forestry University, China.
Bacterial #AntibioticResistance is not only a property of individual bacteria. This study shows that it can also be a property of whole bacterial communities in which resistant and sensitive bacteria grow in specific spatial arrangements. https://www.pnas.org/doi/abs/10.1073/pnas.2417065122?af=R

@mattotcha #Bacteriophages give me hope.
Hope we have a chance to overcome #AntibioticResistance
It’s not a panacea, but it brigs hope.

War-torn Ukraine has become a breeding ground for lethal drug-resistant bacteria
Now deep into its third year, Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine has become a breeding ground for bacteria that can withstand the world’s most potent antibiotics. “It’s eye-opening just how incredibly resistant some of the bacteria coming out of Ukraine are. I haven’t seen anything like it,” says Jason Bennett, director of the Multidrug-Resistant Organism Repository and Surveillance Network at the Walter Reed Army Institute of Research (WRAIR).
Ringing alarm bells the loudest is Klebsiella pneumoniae, a pathogen that globally causes one in five deaths attributable to antimicrobial resistance (AMR). Disease detectives have cultured hypervirulent Klebsiella from Ukrainian casualties, including strains described in a paper in the December issue of the Journal of Infection that are pandrug resistant—in other words, no single antibiotic can vanquish them.

#Bacteria ditch tags to dodge #antibiotics
Modified #ribosomes could be a new possible mechanism of #AntibioticResistance
EurekAlert!Bacteria ditch tags to dodge antibioticsBacteria modify their ribosomes when exposed to widely used antibiotics, according to research in Nature Communications. The modified ribosomes have changes specifically in the regions where antibiotics latch on to and halt protein production. The study found this made the bacteria more resistant to the drugs. The subtle changes might be enough to alter the binding site of drug targets and constitute a possible new mechanism of antibiotic resistance.
