Cefazolin and imipenem enhance AmpC expression and resistance in NagZ-dependent manner in Enterobacter cloacae complex

BMC Microbiology, 2022
Background Enterobacter cloacae complex (ECC) is a common opportunistic pathogen and is responsible for causing various infections in humans. Owing to its inducible chromosomal AmpC β-lactamase (AmpC), ECC is inherently resistant to the 1st- and 2nd ...

Infections caused by clonal spread of metallo-beta-lactamase-producing Enterobacter cloacae complex isolates at a southern Taiwan hospital [PDF]

Microbiology Spectrum
Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacter cloacae complex (ECC) has become a clinically important pathogen with increased incidence worldwide in recent years. In Taiwan, IMP-8 accounted for most carbapenemase produced by ECC in earlier studies.

Carbapenem-Resistant Enterobacter cloacae in Patients from the US Veterans Health Administration, 2006–2015

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2017
We analyzed carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) trends among patients from the US Veterans Health Administration (VHA). After the emergence of CRE in the eastern United States, resistance rates remained stable in Klebsiella pneumoniae but ...

Isolation and characterization of bacteriophages for carbapenem resistant Enterobacter cloacae complex strains. [PDF]

Sci Rep
Abstract There has been an increased interest in phage therapy for the treatment of antimicrobial resistant bacterial infections due to the decreasing effectiveness of antibiotics. While phage therapy has been successful, it often requires time to isolate and characterize phages suitable for phage therapy.

Study of the mechanisms of colistin heteroresistance in a strain of Enterobacter cloacae by random mutagenesis

Journal of Global Antimicrobial Resistance
Objective: The Enterobacter cloacae complex belongs to a group in which colistin resistance is not well documented due to their frequent heteroresistance. Methods: We investigated the molecular basis of colistin heteroresistance using genome analysis and

Polymyxin resistance in Enterobacter cloacae complex in Brazil: phenotypic and molecular characterization. [PDF]

Braz J Microbiol
Enterobacter cloacae complex isolates have been reported as an important nosocomial multidrug resistance pathogen. In the present study, we investigated antimicrobial susceptibility and the colistin-resistance rates, their genetic determinants and clonality among clinical E. cloacae complex isolates from different Brazilian states. For this, an initial
