Identify and use key bacteria from the intestinal microbiota to promote its ecological barrier effect against antibiotic-resistant pathogenic bacteria

The gastrointestinal tract is a reservoir of opportunistic pathogens, where pathobionts take advantage of dysbiosis to proliferate in immunocompromised patients. Vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE) originate from the gastrointestinal tract, where their proliferation precedes dissemination into the bloodstream and can lead to systemic infection. Understanding the mechanisms responsible for resistance to intestinal colonisation by VRE is essential […]
