Exogenous cystine increases susceptibility of drug-resistant Salmonella to gentamicin by promoting oxidation of glutathione metabolism and imbalance of intracellular redox levels by Junyuan Du, Junyuan Du, Zhiyi Wu, Zhiyi Wu, Chunyang Zhu, Chunyang Zhu, Heng Yang, Heng Yang, Feike Zhao, Feike Zhao, Binghu Fang, Binghu Fang

“…Our results suggest that when bacterial redox levels are reprogrammed, bacterial susceptibility to antibiotics can also change.DiscussionThis study confirms that cystine enhances the antimicrobial efficacy of gentamicin against drug-resistant Salmonella. Through the application of metabolomics, the underlying metabolic mechanisms by which cystine exerts its effects on Salmonella have been elucidated, offering a novel perspective in the domain of metabolic reprogramming aimed at counteracting drug resistance. …”
