Threat and Control of tet(X)-Mediated Tigecycline-Resistant Acinetobacter sp. Bacteria

Tigecycline is regarded as one of the last-resort antibiotics against multidrug-resistant (MDR) Acinetobacter sp. bacteria. Recently, the tigecycline-resistant Acinetobacter sp. isolates mediated by tet(X) genes have emerged as a class of global pathogens for humans and food-producing animals. However, the genetic diversities and treatment options were not systematically discussed in the era of One Health. In this review, we provide a detailed illustration of the evolution route, distribution...
