摘要:

随着细菌耐药性快速发展且不断出现新的耐药菌,临床抗感染治疗可选择的抗菌药物越来越少,不通过直接杀灭病原菌而寻求控制耐药基因的传播正成为一种新的耐药性防控策略。质粒是耐药基因最重要的载体之一,通过接合转移可在不同来源(如动物、人和环境)细菌间传播,对耐药性传播发挥了重要作用,因而抑制质粒接合转移被认为是防控耐药性传播的有效策略之一,受到越来越多研究者的重视。本文在简要介绍耐药性传播机制的基础上,阐述质粒接合转移过程及其机制,并总结了目前质粒接合抑制剂的研究进展,以期为耐药性防控新策略的研究提供参考和借鉴。

Abstract:

With the rapid development of antimicrobial resistance(AMR)and the increasing emergence of new antimicrobial-resistant bacteria, there are fewer and fewer antibiotics available for therapeutic options. Controlling the dissemination of resistance genes, without directly killing pathogens, is becoming a novel strategy to combat AMR. Plasmid acts as one of the most important vectors of resistance genes. It can be disseminated globally to bacterias of diverse sources(e.g., animal, human being, foods, and environment)through conjugation, and plays an important role in the transmission of AMR. Thus, inhibiting the conjugative transfer of plasmids is considered as a promising approach to control AMR and has been attracting more and more attentions of the researchers. This review briefly introduced the mechanism of AMR transfer, expounded the process and mechanism of plasmid conjugation, and summarized the progress of conjugation inhibitors,aiming to provide reference for the development of new strategies to control AMR.
