Epidemiological characteristics and molecular evolution mechanisms of carbapenem-resistant hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Carbapenem-resistant hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae (CR-hvKP), a type of Klebsiella pneumoniae (KP) that exhibits hypervirulence and carbapenem resistance phenotypes, can cause severe infections, both hospital- and community-acquired infections.

Outcome of carbapenem resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae bloodstream infections [PDF]

Clinical Microbiology and Infection, 2012
The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of carbapenem-resistant K. pneumoniae bloodstream infections on mortality. During the study period 42, 68 and 120 patients were identified with carbapenem-resistant, extended-spectrum β-lactamase producers (ESBL) and susceptible K. pneumoniae bloodstream infections, respectively. Patients with carbapenem-

Virulence factors in carbapenem-resistant hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2023
Hypervirulence and carbapenem-resistant have emerged as two distinct evolutionary pathotypes of Klebsiella pneumoniae, with both reaching their epidemic success and posing a great threat to public health. However, as the boundaries separating these two pathotypes fade, we assist a worrisome convergence in certain high-risk clones, causing hospital ...

Rapid susceptibility profiling of carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae [PDF]

Scientific Reports, 2017
AbstractThe expanding global distribution of multi-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae demands faster antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST) to guide antibiotic treatment. Current ASTs rely on time-consuming differentiation of resistance and susceptibility after initial isolation of bacteria from a clinical specimen.

Klebsiella pneumoniae is able to trigger epithelial-mesenchymal transition process in cultured airway epithelial cells [PDF]

, 2016
The ability of some bacterial pathogens to activate Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition normally is a consequence of the persistence of a local chronic inflammatory response or depends on a direct interaction of the pathogens with the host epithelial cells.
