STUDY ON APOPTOSIS INDUCED BY ACINETOBATTER BAUMANNII
Acinetobacter baumannii is considered to be the main potential causative agent of hospital infections,but in the last few years,due to the widespread use of broad-spectrum antibiotics,A.baumannii has formed multidrug-resistant and pan-drug-resistant bacteria,and domestic and international studies have mainly focused on the drug-resistant and epidemio-logical characteristics of this bacterium,while the study of its pathogenicity is still in the primary stage.Relevant studies have confirmed that the virulence factors of A.baumannii can cause apoptosis in host cells.Therefore,the purpose of this review is to analyze and summarize the mechanism of apoptosis caused by A.baumannii.
