Popis: | ABSTRACTSalmonella poses a serious threat to public health and socioeconomic development worldwide because of its foodborne pathogenicity and antimicrobial resistance. This biofilm-planktonic lifestyle enables Salmonella to interfere with the host and become resistant to drugs, conferring inherent tolerance to antibiotics. The complex biofilm structure makes bacteria tolerant to harsh conditions due to the diversity of physiological, biochemical, environmental, and molecular factors constituting resistance mechanisms. Here, we provide an overview of the mechanisms of Salmonella biofilm formation and antibiotic resistance, with an emphasis on less-studied molecular factors and in-depth analysis of the latest knowledge about upregulated drug-resistance-associated genes in bacterial aggregates. We classified and extensively discussed each group of these genes encoding transporters, outer membrane proteins, enzymes, multiple resistance, metabolism, and stress response-associated proteins. Finally, we highlighted the missing information and studies that need to be undertaken to understand biofilm features and contribute to eliminating antibiotic-resistant and health-threatening biofilms. |
