A new type of drug-resistant gene found in Zhejiang was included in the authoritative gene bank

use antibiotics to "fight" the "horrible bacteria" that can cause a variety of infections, including the respiratory tract, and Baumann," a practice doctors have beenIn recent years, however, this has been a failure, as the long-term use of the antibiotic has led to resistance to the "horror bacteria"Why does Baumann's campylobacter become resistant to antibiotics? A team led by Zhu Jianming, aand testing physician at theHospital in Yuhang District, Hangzhou, found that a new type of drug-resistant gene existed in the bacteria over a period of three yearsIt is because of it that Bowman's donot strain on antibiotics can become resistant, making the effect of drug treatment significantly reduced or even ineffectiveThis is the first time the drug-resistant gene has been found in the worldRecently, the world's most authoritative gene bank, the National Biological Information Center gene bank of the United States, has been validated, included in the library and named it armA-like (methylaterase gene subtype)Zhu Jianming said that Bowman is an important pathogen ofinfection inhospital, which can cause pneumonia, wound infection, meningitis, urinary tract infection, peritonitis, endocarditis, etcafter invasion into the human body, and can be further developed into sepsisDoctors have long been treating Baumann's donot-based infection with drugs such as aminoglycoside antibioticsHowever, researchers have found in recent years that the rapid growth of bacterial resistance has led to a marked decline in the effectiveness of treatment after taking drugs, and many patients have died as a resultof theHospital in Yuhang District noted three years ago that bacterial resistance not only ineffectively invalidates patients' medications, prolongs the length of hospitalization, increases the cost of medicines, and makes the incidence and mortality of bacterial infections inhospitals significantly increased To this end, Zhu Jianming and other "bacterial disinfectant drug resistance gene research" under the support of science and technology projects, began the study of bacterial resistance mechanism Recently, the project passed the provincial Academy of Medical Sciences, Zhejiang University and other units of 7 experts composed of the evaluation committee, research papers are also included in the World Infectious Disease Suss Experts say the study is important for the rational use of antibiotics in the future and for the development of new drugs to curb bacterial resistance (Xiao Guoqiang Zhang)
