The study found that changes in the intestinal microbiome and metabolome induced by a high-fat diet facilitate the development of antibiotic tolerance by bacterial pathogens.
Antibiotic tolerance enables microorganisms to survive the exposure to antibiotics and serves as a precursor to antibiotic resistance. In a recent issue of Nature Microbiology, Liu et al. (2021) describe that high-fat-diet induced changes in the intestinal microbiome and metabolome facilitate the development of antibiotic tolerance by bacterial pathogens.
