Antecedent Carbapenem Exposure as a Risk Factor for Non-Carbapenemase-Producing Carbapenem-Resistant Enterobacteriaceae and Carbapenemase-Producing Enterobacteriaceae [PDF]

open access: yesAntimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 2019
Carbapenem-resistantEnterobacteriaceae(CRE) can be mechanistically classified into carbapenemase-producingEnterobacteriaceae(CPE) and non-carbapenemase-producing carbapenem nonsusceptibleEnterobacteriaceae(NCPCRE). We sought to investigate the effect of antecedent carbapenem exposure as a risk factor for NCPCRE versus CPE.

Phage-Plasmids Spread Antibiotic Resistance Genes through Infection and Lysogenic Conversion

open access: yesmBio, 2022
Antibiotic resistance is rapidly spreading via the horizontal transfer of resistance genes in mobile genetic elements. While plasmids are key drivers of this process, few integrative phages encode antibiotic resistance genes.

Carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae in transplant patients

open access: yesJournal of Antimicrobial Chemotherapy, 2021
Abstract Carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (CPE) are a serious public health concern and represent a major threat to immunocompromised hosts, including solid organ (SOT) and stem cell transplant (HSCT) recipients. Transplant patients are at particular risk of developing CPE colonization and/or infection due to their frequent ...

Carbapenemase-Producing Enterobacteriaceae [PDF]

open access: yesSeminars in Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 2015
Carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (CPE) were almost nonexistent up to the 1990s, but are today encountered routinely in hospitals and other healthcare facilities in many countries including the United States. KPC-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae was the first to emerge and spread globally and is endemic in the United States, Israel, Greece, and

Genetics of Acquired Antibiotic Resistance Genes in Proteus spp.

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Proteus spp. are commensal Enterobacterales of the human digestive tract. At the same time, P. mirabilis is commonly involved in urinary tract infections (UTI). P.

Genetic Diversity, Biochemical Properties, and Detection Methods of Minor Carbapenemases in Enterobacterales

open access: yesFrontiers in Medicine, 2021
Gram-negative bacteria, especially Enterobacterales, have emerged as major players in antimicrobial resistance worldwide. Resistance may affect all major classes of anti-gram-negative agents, becoming multidrug resistant or even pan-drug resistant ...

Evaluation of a modified meropenem hydrolysis assay on a large cohort of KPC and VIM carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) have spread globally and represent a serious and growing threat to public health. The introduction of rapid and sensitive methods for the detection of carbapenemase-producing bacteria is of increasing ...

Identification and screening of carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Microbiology and Infection, 2012
Carbapenem-hydrolysing β-lactamases are the most powerful β-lactamases, being able to hydrolyse almost all β-lactams. They are mostly of the KPC, VIM, IMP, NDM and OXA-48 types. Their current extensive spread worldwide in Enterobacteriaceae is an important source of concern, as these carbapenemase producers are multidrug-resistant.
