Published in 2019 at "International journal of antimicrobial agents"

DOI: 10.1016/j.ijantimicag.2019.01.003

Abstract: Ceftazidime (CAZ) is the antibiotic of choice for the treatment of Burkholderia pseudomallei infection (melioidosis). The chromosomally-encoded PenA β-lactamase possesses weak cephalosporinase activity. The wild-type penA gene confers clinically significant CAZ resistance only when overexpressed… read more here.

Published in 2024 at "Autophagy"

DOI: 10.1080/15548627.2024.2403125

Abstract: ABSTRACT Burkholderia pseudomallei (B. pseudomallei) is a facultative intracellular parasitic pathogen with multiple immune escape mechanisms. Mitophagy is critical for mitochondrial quality control and function in various biological processes. We reported that B. pseudomallei infection… read more here.
