Acinetobacter baumannii is undoubtedly one of the most successful pathogens
responsible for hospital-acquired nosocomial infections in the modern healthcare
system. Due to the prevalence of infections and outbreaks caused by multi-drug
resistant A. baumannii, few antibiotics are effective for treating infections
caused by this pathogen. To overcome this problem, knowledge of the pathogenesis
and antibiotic resistance mechanisms of A. baumannii is important. In this
review, we summarize current studies on the virulence factors that contribute to
A. baumannii pathogenesis, including porins, capsular polysaccharides,
lipopolysaccharides, phospholipases, outer membrane vesicles, metal acquisition
systems, and protein secretion systems. Mechanisms of antibiotic resistance of
this organism, including acquirement of ?-lactamases, up-regulation of multidrug
efflux pumps, modification of aminoglycosides, permeability defects, and
alteration of target sites, are also discussed. Lastly, novel prospective
treatment options for infections caused by multi-drug resistant A. baumannii are
summarized.
