Mechanisms of tigecycline resistance among Klebsiella pneumoniae clinical isolates.
Of 26 tigecycline-nonsusceptible Klebsiella pneumoniae (TNSKP) clinical isolates, 25 had nonsynonymous mutations in ramR and/or acrR (23 in ramR and 10 in acrR). Eight TNSKP isolates possessed overexpression of ramA, acrB, rarA, and oqxB simultaneously, while 8 and 1 TNSKP strains had upregulation of ramA and acrB and of rarA and oqxB, respectively. Thus, resistance mechanisms of 9 TNSKP isolat...
متن کاملColistin resistance mechanisms in Klebsiella pneumoniae strains from Taiwan.
Colistin is one of the antibiotics of last resort for the treatment of carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae infection. This study showed that capsular type K64 (50%) and ST11 (53.9%) are the prevalent capsular and sequence types in the colistin-resistant strains in Taiwan. The interruption of transcripts (38.5%) and amino acid mutation (15.4%) in mgrB are the major mechanisms contributing...
متن کاملMeropenem-Vaborbactam Resistance Selection, Resistance Prevention, and Molecular Mechanisms in Mutants of KPC-Producing Klebsiella pneumoniae
Vaborbactam (formerly RPX7009) is a new β-lactamase inhibitor based on a cyclic boronic acid pharmacophore with potent inhibitory activity against Klebsiella pneumoniaecarbapenemases (KPC). It has been developed in combination with meropenem. The objective of these studies was to identify the concentrations of both agents associated with the selection or prevention of single-step mutations lead...
متن کاملAntimicrobial Resistance of Hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae: Epidemiology, Hypervirulence-Associated Determinants, and Resistance Mechanisms
Klebsiella pneumoniae is one of the most clinically relevant species in immunocompromised individuals responsible for community-acquired and nosocomial infections, including pneumonias, urinary tract infections, bacteremias, and liver abscesses. Since the mid-1980s, hypervirulent K. pneumoniae, generally associated with the hypermucoviscosity phenotype, has emerged as a clinically significant p...
متن کاملKlebsiella pneumoniae with multiple antimicrobial resistance.
A Klebsiella pneumoniae strain was isolated from the urine of a patient at one of the centers participating in the 2001 edition of the MYSTIC program in Brazil. The initial phenotypic findings of the isolated K. pneumoniae presented an unusual MIC of 8 microg/mL to meropenem, 2 microg/mL to imipenem, elevated MICs to broad spectrum cephalosporins (ceftazidime/cefotaxime/cefepime MIC > 256 micro...
