Acinetobacter Baumannii Phages: Past, Present and Future.

() is one of the most common clinical pathogens and a typical multi-drug resistant (MDR) bacterium. With the increase of drug-resistant infections, it is urgent to find some new treatment strategies, such as phage therapy. In this paper, we described the different drug resistances of and some basic properties of phages, analyzed the interaction between phages and their hosts, and focused on phage therapies. Finally, we discussed the chance and challenge of phage therapy. This paper aims to provide a more comprehensive understanding of phages and theoretical support for the clinical application of phages.
