Cooperating Commensals Restore Colonization Resistance to Vancomycin-Resistant Enterococcus faecium
SUMMARY Antibiotic-mediated microbiota destruction and the consequent loss of colonization resistance can result in intestinal domination with vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus (VRE), leading to bloodstream infection in hospitalized patients.

Helicobacter pylori infection is the most common cause of gastritis with its associated sequelae. Gastritis secondary to other bacteria is rare. This report describes Enterococcus-associated gastritis in a 59-year-old diabetic man. Nine months after receiving treatment for H. pylori-associated gastritis, he underwent endoscopy to confirm H.

Enterococci have a variety of intrinsic antibiotic resistances, and also they can acquire new antibiotic resistance determinants including mutated ligase genes such as VanA or VanB. The increased prevalence and dissemination of multidrug-resistant Enterococci (i.e., Vancomycin resistant Enterococci: VRE) worldwide have resulted in a major decrease in ...

In 1899, Thiercilin used the term “enterococcus” to describe microscopic organisms seen in pairs or short chains in feces. Later (in the 1930s) the name was used in a more restrictive sense for streptococci that had the hardy capacity to survive under extreme conditions.Enterococci belong to a group D family of streptococci, as characterized by ...

This chapter discloses the emergence of enterococci as an important hospital-acquired or nosocomial pathogen since the early 1970s. It looks at the statistics from the National Nosocomial Infections Surveillance System (NNISS) and subsequent Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) programs (National Healthcare Safety Network), which places ...

Antimicrobial-resistant CC17 Enterococcus faecium: The past, the present and the future.
Journal of Global Antimicrobial Resistance, 2019Enterococcus faecium is a robust opportunistic pathogen that is most commonly found as a commensal of the human and animal gut but can also survive in the environment. Since the introduction and use of antimicrobials, E. faecium has been found to rapidly
