Comparison of outcomes in urinary tract infections caused by AmpC-harboring organisms treated with AmpC stable versus AmpC susceptible agents

Diagnostic Microbiology and Infectious Disease, 2021
There is minimal data on the optimal treatment of lower inoculum infections such as urinary tract infections (UTIs) caused by SPICE organisms which encode the betalactamase enzyme, AmpC. This single-center, retrospective review of adult hospitalized patients with UTIs caused by a SPICE organism compared outcomes amongst patients treated with drugs ...

AmpC β-Lactamases [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Microbiology Reviews, 2009
SUMMARYAmpC β-lactamases are clinically important cephalosporinases encoded on the chromosomes of many of the Enterobacteriaceae and a few other organisms, where they mediate resistance to cephalothin, cefazolin, cefoxitin, most penicillins, and β-lactamase inhibitor-β-lactam combinations.

Plasmid-borne AmpC β-lactamases

Canadian Journal of Microbiology, 2002
Historically, it was thought that ampC genes encoding class C β-lactamases were located solely on the chromosome but, within the last 12 years, an increasing number of ampC genes have been found on plasmids. These have mostly been acquired by ampC-deficient pathogenic bacteria, which consequently are supplied with new and additional resistance ...

Nanomolar Inhibitors of AmpC β-Lactamase

Journal of the American Chemical Society, 2002
beta-lactamases are the most widespread resistance mechanism to beta-lactam antibiotics, such as the penicillins and the cephalosporins. In an effort to combat these enzymes, a combination of stereoselective organic synthesis, enzymology, microbiology, and X-ray crystallography was used to design and evaluate new carboxyphenyl-glycylboronic acid ...

Species-specific mutation rates for ampC derepression in Enterobacterales with chromosomally encoded inducible AmpC β-lactamase

Journal of Antimicrobial Chemotherapy, 2018
AmpC β-lactamases are encoded on the chromosomes of certain Enterobacterales and lead to clinical resistance to various β-lactams in case of high-level expression. In WT bacteria with inducible AmpC, the expression is low, but selection of stably ampC-derepressed mutants may occur during β-lactam therapy.

Detection of AmpC beta-lactamases using sodium salicylate

Journal of Microbiological Methods, 2012
AmpC β-lactamases are enzymes that hydrolyze all β-lactam antibiotics except cefipime and imipenem. Currently, there is no standard phenotypic method for detection of such enzymes. This study aims to report the use of sodium salicylate for AmpC β-lactamases detection and to compare its sensitivity and specificity to other commonly known inhibitors.

Signalling proteins in enterobacterial AmpC β‐lactamase regulation

Molecular Microbiology, 1989
SummaryThe cloned Citrobacter freundii ampC β‐lactamase is inducible in the presence of its regulatory gene ampR in Escherichia coli (Lindberg et al., 1985). The basal level of expression and inducibility are affected by two E. coli proteins encoded by the closely linked ampD and ampE genes.
