Article Synopsis
  • * Research investigated how bacteria might develop resistance to AF, focusing on the role of the thioredoxin reductase enzyme (TrxB) and its multiple forms in clinical strains, though the number of TrxB genes didn't affect AF's minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC).
  • * Mutations that arose after long-term exposure to AF were found in an anti-sigma factor, impacting bacterial physiology, and AF was shown to have a lesser effect on human gut microbiota compared to the antibiotic vancomycin.

Abundance of Faecalibacterium prausnitzii, a dominant bacterium of the human microbiota that exhibits antiinflammatory effects, is decreased in patients with inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD). In humans, colonic lamina propria contains IL-10-secreting, Foxp3- Tregs characterized by a double expression of CD4 and CD8α (DP8α) and a specificity for F. prausnitzii.
