These virulence factors act alone or in synergy with each other to cause tissue damage, necrosis, and cell death. Among the virulence factors of PA, the major determinants of virulence are the type III secretion system (T3SS) and quorum sensing (cell-to-cell signaling system). The T3SS is a needle-like complex, also known as the injectisome, that enables a bacterium to deliver different effector proteins such as ExoS, ExoT, ExoU, and ExoY across the membrane into a host cell, altering host cell functions and increasing bacterial survival rates ( Horna G and, Ruiz J, 2021). In this study, we aimed to evaluate the prevalence of antibiotic resistance caused by the presence of Efflux genes and some virulence factors in Pseudomonas aeruginosa from clinical isolates."},
