Journal ArticleDOI

Antibiotic resistance and its cost: is it possible to reverse resistance?

Dan I. Andersson, +1 more
- 01 Apr 2010 - 
TL;DR: The findings suggest that the fitness costs of resistance will allow susceptible bacteria to outcompete resistant bacteria if the selective pressure from antibiotics is reduced, and that the rate of reversibility will be slow at the community level.
Journal ArticleDOI

Selection of resistant bacteria at very low antibiotic concentrations.

Erik Gullberg, +6 more
- 21 Jul 2011 - 
TL;DR: It is suggested that the low antibiotic concentrations found in many natural environments are important for enrichment and maintenance of resistance in bacterial populations.
Journal ArticleDOI

Microbiological effects of sublethal levels of antibiotics

Dan I. Andersson, +1 more
- 01 Jul 2014 - 
TL;DR: The ecology of antibiotics and the ability of subinhibitory concentrations to select for bacterial resistance are discussed and the effects of low-level drug exposure on bacterial physiology are considered, including the generation of genetic and phenotypic variability, as well as the able of antibiotics to function as signalling molecules.
Journal ArticleDOI

The biological cost of antibiotic resistance

Dan I. Andersson, +1 more
- 01 Oct 1999 - 
TL;DR: The data available from recent laboratory studies suggest that most, but not all, resistance-determining mutations and accessory elements engender some fitness cost, but those costs are likely to be ameliorated by subsequent evolution.
Journal ArticleDOI

Definitions and guidelines for research on antibiotic persistence

Naomi N.Q. Balaban, +27 more
- 01 Jul 2019 - 
TL;DR: Scientists working on the response of bacteria to antibiotics define antibiotic persistence and provide practical guidance on how to study bacterial persister cells, and provide a guide to measuring persistence.
