conclusions although the data support the idea that the basic mechanism of imipenem resistance could be via the loss of oprd, they do not fully explain the role of oprd and indicate that other mechanisms may play an important role. additionally, the significant decrease in the oprd levels in mdr strains suggests that oprd also plays a role in the emergence of both carbapenem and non-carbapenem ...
Pseudomonas aeruginosa OprD is a specific porin which facilitates the uptake of basic amino acids and imipenem, a carbapenem antibiotic. Resistance to imipenem due to the loss of OprD is an important mechanism for the loss of clinical effectiveness. To investigate the negative regulatory mechanisms influencing oprD expression, a gene upstream of the coregulated mexEF-oprN efflux operon, designa...
conclusions the results of this study indicated that a decrease in oprd gene expression is an important mechanism of resistance in carbapenem resistant pseudomonas aeruginosa isolated from severe burn patients with secondary infection. results our study showed that 94.2% of the isolates were resistant to imipenem, 99.5% to meropenem, and all were resistant to ertapenem. the oprd gene expression...
We investigated the presence of OprD mutations in 60 strains of metallo-ß-lactamase-negative Pseudomonas aeruginosa intermediately susceptible (IS [n = 12]; MIC = 8 μg/ml) or susceptible (S [n = 48]; MICs ≤ 1 to 4 μg/ml) to imipenem and/or meropenem that were isolated from patients with bacteremia in order to evaluate their impact on carbapenem susceptibility profiles. The presence of mutations...
BACKGROUND The Pseudomonas aeruginosa porin OprD is a substrate-specific porin that facilitates the diffusion of basic amino acids, small peptides, and carbapenems into the cell. OprD-mediated resistance occurs as a result of decreased transcriptional expression of oprD and/or loss of function mutations that disrupt protein activity. OBJECTIVES In this study, we examined the level of oprD exp...
Pseudomonas aeruginosa can utilize arginine and other amino acids as both carbon and nitrogen sources. Earlier studies have shown that the specific porin OprD facilitates the diffusion of basic amino acids as well as the structurally analogous beta-lactam antibiotic imipenem. The studies reported here showed that the expression of OprD was strongly induced when arginine, histidine, glutamate, o...
The metal-specific CzcRS two-component system in Pseudomonas aeruginosa is involved in the repression of the OprD porin, causing in turn carbapenem antibiotic resistance in the presence of high zinc concentration. It has also been shown that CzcR is able to directly regulate the expression of multiple genes including virulence factors. CzcR is therefore an important regulator connecting (i) met...
This study explored the evolutionary mechanism by which the clinical isolate PA110514 yields the imipenemresistant derivative PA116136. Both isolates were examined by PFGE and SDS-PAGE, which led to the identification of a new insertion sequence, ISPa133. This element was shown to have distinct chromosomal locations in each of the original isolates that appeared to explain the differences in im...
Resistance mechanisms in a group of carbapenemase-negative Pseudomonas aeruginosa that were susceptible to all antibiotics except carbapenems (carbapenem resistance-only P. aeruginosa [CROPA]) were studied. Ten genetically nonrelated CROPA isolates and their carbapenem-susceptible counterparts were further investigated. OprD production was demonstrated by protein electrophoresis in only 1 of th...
Carbapenem-resistance is a great challenge for antimicrobial therapy in Pseudomonas aeruginosa multidrug-resistant infections, as it reduces therapeutic options. This study investigated carbapenem-resistance mechanisms six strains of non-carbapenemase-producing P. aeruginosa. Minimal inhibitory concentrations imipenem and meropenem were determined by epsilometric test broth microdilution. Mutat...
