Deskripsi

Collateral sensitivity (CS), whereby resistance to one drug is accompanied by increased sensitivity to another, provides new opportunities for antimicrobial drug discovery. Here, Liu et al. screen large chemical libraries across 29 drug-resistant E. coli strains to identify multiple CS interactions, including natural products with potent CS activities against cephalosporin-resistant strains.
