A proficient pathogen should be virulent, resistant to antibiotics, and epidemic. However, the interplay between resistance and virulence is poorly understood. Perhaps, the most commonly accepted view is that resistance to quinolones is linked to a loss of virulence factors. However, the low virulent phylogenetic groups may be more prone to acquire resistance to quinolones. The aim of this study was to identify and characterise the Nalidixic Acid (NA) and ciprofloxacin (CIP) resistant uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) isolates with respect to virulence and phylogenetic background, from hospital settings in Kolkata, an eastern region in India. Research based on these bacterial populations will help in understanding the molecular mechanisms underlying the association between resistance and virulence, that in turn, may help in managing the future disseminations of UTIs in their entirety.
