Collateral sensitivity to pleuromutilins in vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium
The acquisition of resistance to one antibiotic sometimes leads to collateral sensitivity to a second antibiotic. Here, the authors show that vancomycin resistance in Enterococcus faecium is associated with a remarkable increase in susceptibility to pleuromutilin antibiotics, such as lefamulin.
