Environmental Phage-Based Cocktail and Antibiotic Combination Effects onAcinetobacter baumanniiBiofilm in a Human Urine Model

Bartlomiej Grygorcewicz et al.

Summary: The combined treatment of phage cocktails with high lytic activity against MDR Acinetobacter baumanni infections and antibiotics has shown promising results in reducing bacterial biofilm biomass in human urine, demonstrating synergistic effects. This approach also resulted in a significantly greater reduction of biofilm biomass and clearance of persister cells.

Maipomycin A, a Novel Natural Compound With Promising Anti-biofilm Activity Against Gram-Negative Pathogenic Bacteria

Junliang Zhang et al.

Summary: Pathogenic bacterial biofilms are difficult to eradicate and can develop antibiotic resistance. MaiA, a compound isolated from a rare actinomycete strain, shows broad-spectrum anti-biofilm activities against Gram-negative bacteria and can enhance the efficacy of certain antibiotics, potentially serving as an effective agent to prevent biofilm formation.

Bloodstream infections caused by ST2 Acinetobacter baumannii: risk factors, antibiotic regimens, and virulence over 6 years period in China

Kaihang Yu et al.

Summary: A study in China over a six-year period analyzed the epidemiology and microbiological characteristics of MDR-AB induced bloodstream infection. The study found that ST2 strains were widespread globally, exhibiting strong biofilm formation ability and high pathogenicity. The mortality rate was high, with mechanical ventilation and ICU stay as main risk factors.

Eradication of Acinetobacter baumannii Planktonic and Biofilm Cells Through Erythrosine-Mediated Photodynamic Inactivation Augmented by Acetic Acid and Chitosan

Zahra Fekrirad et al.

Summary: Photodynamic inactivation (PDI) is an effective treatment for multidrug-resistant bacterial infections, with anionic photosensitizers like erythrosine B showing enhanced efficacy when combined with acetic acid and chitosan. The study demonstrated that PDI using erythrosine B in acetic acid effectively eliminated A.baumannii planktonic cells and chitosan enhanced the anti-biofilm efficacy of PDI, suggesting potential for combination therapy targeting biofilms.

Overexpression of Efflux Pumps, Mutations in the Pumps' Regulators, Chromosomal Mutations, and AAC(6′)-Ib-cr Are Associated With Fluoroquinolone Resistance in Diverse Sequence Types of Neonatal Septicaemic Acinetobacter baumannii: A 7-Year Single Center Study

Subhasree Roy et al.

Summary: This study found high resistance of neonatal septicaemic Acinetobacter baumannii to fluoroquinolones, particularly moxifloxacin, with multiple active resistance mechanisms, including overexpression of efflux pumps. The diversity of strains and the presence of novel sequence types indicate a complex epidemiological relationship, while mutations within GyrA, ParC, and efflux pump regulators play a critical role in resistance.

Summary: A high prevalence of biofilm-producing MDR and XDR A. baumannii nosocomial isolates was found in a tertiary care hospital in Egypt, with associated risk factors including length of hospital stay, presence of specific genes, antibiotic resistance, and MDR/XDR status. Characterization of these risk factors could help control the spread of this serious A. baumannii phenotype and improve patient care quality.

Novel Approaches to Combat Medical Device-Associated BioFilms

Xin Li et al.

Summary: Biofilms are formed by microorganisms as a protective survival state to resist antimicrobial agents and host immune responses. They pose a serious threat to human health, especially in medical device-associated infections, and traditional antimicrobial agents are ineffective. New treatment strategies are urgently needed to address biofilm infections.

The Role of Antibiotic Resistant A. baumannii in the Pathogenesis of Urinary Tract Infection and the Potential of Its Treatment with the Use of Bacteriophage Therapy

Natalia Baginska et al.

Summary: Acinetobacter baumannii is a critical priority bacterium due to its resistance to multiple antibiotics, making infections difficult to treat and significantly affecting patients' quality of life. Bacteriophage therapy is a promising alternative treatment that could be safer and more effective for urinary tract infections caused by A. baumannii.

Relationship between the Biofilm-Forming Capacity and Antimicrobial Resistance in Clinical Acinetobacter baumannii Isolates: Results from a Laboratory-Based In Vitro Study

Matthew Gavino Donadu et al.

Summary: The study aimed to establish a possible relationship between biofilm-forming capacity and antibiotic resistance in clinical Acinetobacter baumannii isolates. Results showed that there was a numerical connection between biofilm formation and antibiotic resistance, but no statistically significant association between resistance to individual antibiotics and biofilm formation. Further experiments are needed to evaluate the role of biofilms in the pathogenesis of A. baumannii infections.

Acinetobacter baumannii Antibiotic Resistance Mechanisms

Ioannis Kyriakidis et al.

Summary: Acinetobacter baumannii is a Gram-negative ESKAPE microorganism that poses a threat to public health due to severe and invasive infections, often nosocomial, with high mortality rates. The pathogen has displayed multidrug resistance, mainly due to extensive antibiotic use and poor stewardship. Next-generation sequencing has improved diagnosis of A. baumannii infections, leading to personalized therapeutic regimens based on resistance gene identification, while the genetic background of resistance mechanisms and virulence factors are being extensively studied.

Biofilm formation in periprosthetic joint infections

Amelia Staats et al.

Summary: The formation of microbial biofilms is closely related to periprosthetic joint infections, but the underlying mechanisms of biofilm establishment and proliferation in the joint space are still being investigated. The presence of biofilms poses clinical challenges in terms of prevention, diagnosis, and treatment practices. A comprehensive understanding of biofilms at the molecular level in the unique joint environment will help clinicians combat them more effectively.

Summary: A. baumannii, an opportunistic bacterial pathogen, forms biofilms to evade environmental challenges, and lactoferrin has shown potential as a biofilm-inhibiting molecule. Human lactoferrin exhibits slightly stronger antibacterial activities than bovine lactoferrin against certain strains of A. baumannii, with effects depending on the anatomical site of isolation.

Summary: Bacterial biofilms pose a serious global public health problem, especially with the rise of antibiotic-resistant Gram-negative bacteria. Acinetobacter baumannii is a significant opportunistic pathogen in healthcare settings, forming biofilms that serve as a main source of patient infections. The limited therapeutic options available for multidrug-resistant A. baumannii biofilm-forming isolates highlight the urgent need for effective antibiofilm approaches.

Summary: Tracheostomy tubes, commonly used in critically ill patients, can harbor bacteria capable of forming biofilms, leading to increased antibiotic resistance. The study identified Acinetobacter baumannii as the most common biofilm-forming organism, with Amikacin, Gentamicin, and Ciprofloxacin being the most sensitive drugs.Ventilator usage did not show a strong association with biofilm formation.
