Long-term in vitro exposure of Treponema pallidum to sub-bactericidal doxycycline did not induce resistance: Implications for doxy-PEP and syphilis

Lauren C. Tantalo, Anne F. Luetkemeyer, Nicole A. P. Lieberman, B. Ethan Nunley, Carlos C Avendaño, Alexander L. Greninger, Connie Celum, Lorenzo Giacani

This study shows that long-term in vitro exposure of Treponema pallidum to sub-bactericidal doxycycline does not induce resistance, supporting the use of doxy-PEP for syphilis prevention.
