Overview
Rifampicin reduces susceptibility to ofloxacin in rifampicin-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis through efflux.
Rifampicin-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis strains exhibit reduced susceptibility to ofloxacin through the activation of efflux pumps. Specific efflux-related genes such as Rv3239c, Rv1258c, Rv2333c, Rv1877, Rv2994, Rv1634, Rv1747, whiB7, and Rv1002c were upregulated upon rifampicin exposure, contributing to ofloxacin resistance.
Comparative genomic analysis of Mycobacterium tuberculosis drug resistant strains from Russia.
The study identified several genetic mutations associated with drug resistance in Mycobacterium tuberculosis strains from Russia, including mutations in rpoB, katG, embB, pncA, rrs, rpsL, ethA, ndhA, Rv0194, Rv1634, and Rv2688c, which confer resistance to rifampicin, isoniazid, ethambutol, pyrazinamide, kanamycin, amikacin, streptomycin, ethionamide, and fluoroquinolone.
