AbstractAntibiotic treatment significantly disrupts the gut microbiome and promotes vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE) intestinal colonisation. These disruptions cause the intestine to act as a reservoir for VRE that seed difficult-to-treat infections. Patients would benefit from new treatments that prevent or treat VRE intestinal colonisation. However, the factors that drive VRE growth in the gut are poorly understood.

However, the over-reliance and frequent misuse of these drugs threatens global health by triggering the rise of pathogens with antimicrobial resistance (AMR).
