Present and Future of Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) Infections [PDF]

Antibiotics, 2019
Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) have become a public health threat worldwide. There are three major mechanisms by which Enterobacteriaceae become resistant to carbapenems: enzyme production, efflux pumps and porin mutations. Of these, enzyme production is the main resistance mechanism.

Combination versus monotherapy for the treatment of infections due to carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae

, 2018
Combination therapy is a common strategy for treatment of multidrug resistant infections. Despite the strong twin rationales of improving efficacy and reducing resistance development, the evidence supporting this strategy remains controversial.

Metagenomic and culture‐based insights into host and plasmid contexts of high‐risk ARGs in poultry farm environments

iMetaOmics, EarlyView.
Shotgun metagenomics and culture‐based isolate genomics revealed position‐associated high‐risk antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) signals across poultry manure piles and surrounding soils. Culture‐confirmed Enterobacteriaceae and IncHI2A‐related blaNDM‐5 plasmid backgrounds further highlight priority host‐ARG‐plasmid contexts for farm antimicrobial ...
